Re: UK banks hacked!!!!
Other UK banks too?
damned
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73261236


A payment has just gone through so they're back up but when we called them an hour ago to ask why the pdq machine wasn't working they said they've been hacked and their whole system is down. There's some big shit going on at the moment.

Could have been the employee being inappropriately tongue in cheek though.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73261236


No chance we're a big business, probably one of the biggest the branch holds so there is no way they'd fuck about. The managing director spoke directly to them and they said they'd been hacked.
 Quoting: Sir France's Beercan


Probably why they told you.
Could be a ploy too, a NWO ploy for clamping down on the internet.

 Quoting: -GLP-Christian-


Yes, it does seem a bit strange they would immediately come out with this as their first explanation. Normally there's a lot of beating around the bush in such situations, especially in the early stages. Interesting though and bears watching.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73261236

Just hinting at the DYN hack earlier.
There is some fishy stuff going on to clamp down on internet security.

Maybe a Denial of Service, unlikely to be "hacked" in the traditional sense.

Why is this rubbish pinned? It's one bank, not banks.

Source of this information is the OP. No other credible info and several people have stated that the banking system is working just fine, despite OP's hysterical ranting.

You should take your own advice. Nowhere did you say it is back to normal, just your pathetic bleating about hacking and the world is going to end, etc.

We're trying to put through our pdq's at work but couldn't do it so called the bank and they said they've been hacked so they are only authorising payments after telephone confirmation.

Re: UK banks hacked!!!!
BS. A bank would never admit to being 'hacked'....they would only admit to a technical glitch. No billion dollar business will 1)tell the truth or 2)implicate themselves in any wrongdoing.

They will lie, cheat, or steal before admitting their systems are hackable and therefore put them at risk for damages.

Fuck off clown bollocks, the system was down and the person we spoke to said they've been hacked. No amount of you attempting to spin it will change that.
