On another site it said, 'change your passwords for peace of mind' '"Importantly, the data does not include useable payment or card details, which we do not hold on our systems, and it does not include any account passwords," M&S said in its statement. "There is no evidence that this data has been shared."' Me - I wonder??

On another note, my main problems over the years has not been my personally losing data on my systems, it is others that lose it including my pension scheme (many 1000 people involved in this) that lost very many things about me that are in the wild, many apologies were given for this & steps have been taken to prevent this happening again, bit late for that though?
