Watchdog

I saw this programme and did wonder at the end what happens to the rogues/criminals/negligent companies that are tracked down on "Watchdog"? eg. "Tony" who was flytipping enormous amounts of rubbish all over the country. Why weren't the police there at the final confrontation with him? One accomplice wrenched off the van's numberplate and they roared off up the road. "Tony" has cost Councils hundreds of thousands to clean up his flytipping.

I saw the program too Auntiflo and I agree very worrying indeed. O2 should be taken to task over this, I notice they refused to appear.

I sometimes wonder if these programmes do more harm than good. Do they put ideas into the heads of potential criminals? I sometimes read warning on Facebook about criminal activity and never share them although I doubt I have any potential criminal friends.

I'm with O2, one of the biggest culprits in selling replacement SIM cards without identification. It's a worry. The phone shops need to retrain all their staff. If you don't have ID, you don't get a win card!

I don't do online banking using my phone mainly because its so nickable. (my phone that is!). Using my PC at home for online banking needs 3 separate passwords as does access to the computer itself.
I'd worry about all this fingerprint access to mobile banking. Thugs could force you to access your mobile account and exit with your phone and open access to bank account. Just too easy.
