You lucky customers are going to get a years free Credit Report after your bank accounts have been cleared out.

At least you will be in the company of 4 million others. Turns out that all your personal information on their servers was not even encrypted so once the hackers were in they could access everything. Seem to remember the same thing happened in August to Carphone Warehouse.
