Re: Which bank details exactly?

Yes, bank details on there own are useless. However most hacking activity is via social engineering, which involves using some info to gain other info. Therefore this is very very bad.

Not as embarrassing as failing to finish reading the sentence you’re attempting to embarrass the author about.

Because the difference between both ends of a CAT5 is...?"

That was a joke. You didn't get it.

Small Moon

Maybe it's actually a Death Star.

LUKE: Look at him. He's headed for that small moon.

HAN: I think I can get him before he gets there...he's almost in

range.

BEN: That's no moon! It's a space station.

HAN: It's too big to be a space station.

Mayfair & Clapham

Vodafone also has severe problems in Mayfair and Clapham. So much so that they allowed me to exit my contract with no penalities due to the poor performance of their data network in both Clapham where I live and Mayfair where I work.

They also arranged for our Mayfair based users to have an O2 SIM card, but to remain with Vodafone for their Blackberries, so as not to lose our contract. If this doesn't tell you there is a problem in Mayfair, then nothing will. Amazing really if they can't provide a service to the most expensive real estate in the world, the I would suggest Glasgow has no chance.

If you're getting a raw deal, pester Vodafone to leave them. It took my many phone calls, but they let me out of my contract in the end.
