CG I had the same thing happen with Aviva, but they admitted liability and sacked the person or persons involved.

This. Surely there are more important things to worry about? Companies that deal with data have to jump through hoops to keep it secure so a "3rd party" doesn't automatically mean your information is going to someone in a shed in Uganda to start buying stocks and shares in your name.

Tell me about it! Things have become [i]much[/i] tighter and more involved in recent months, due to the requirements of certain prospective clients we've been chasing at work.
But then ours isn't just personal data, it involves credit card details and bank details, so we're effectively part of the banking industry.

GJP - really? Was that reported in the news? I accused them before that story broke.

c_g I searched for that story on the internest, never found anything. I wondered if it had been pulled, sub-judice or whatever, or if Aviva had blanked it on google. I'm fairly sure it was on the D Tel website in the past. Two chaps fired, ISTR, business news pages.

And I'd want to know who held my license details on file, beyond my employer.

That's the one, thanks, it's an interesting site, though is it a mainstream news outlet?
