Hi girls,
Just incase you haven't seen the itn evening news the main headline was about missing details, our missing details! Two cd's with all our personnel information on that they have regarding our child benefit account's have gone missing in transit and they don't know where they are! Yes that's right, our names, addresses, d.o.b., N.I. number's, bank details, all the info they have for all of us with kids have gone missing.
Tomorrow morning GMTV are doing a special with helpful information and advice on what we need to beware of and look out for. I don't want to scare anyone, but it is a serious thing if they are in the wrong hands.

I'm going to have a good read of it it's bad that it's happened.
Thanks again Zoe x
Its scary!
It's disgusting that it's only just been announced when all that time we should have been keeping a ccloser eye on our accounts.
Also i hate the fact that the names and d.o.b's of our children were on those discs.
Will be keeping a close eye on my bank account!
im$400 overdrawn in my account i get my C.B into!
but lighthearted joke aside - how irresponsible of them!

Maybe they're simply stating the worse case scenarios after all they don't actually know that the discs have got in to the wrong hands they could well be simply lost - here's hoping!
Im worried about it too, I hate the idea of our details being copied and people being able to find out about our children etc.
As you can see, Ant quite often reads the posts, typical man, not worried at all!!
