Been like it for weeks I think

Damn, I thought for a moment I had something relevant to say... guess not... Carry on, nothing (new) to see here

If the site is hacked they can then hack your pc/phone etc?

They can't hack your pc/phone but may be able to log in to other online accounts that use the same password as your h&f account, and might be able to use credit cards that you had used on the website.

They do not store your credit card details.

They 100% stored credit card details, and I would not be surprised if your FAL and home address details were also stored in their database. In the wrong hands, those details could be a lot more damaging than the leaking of credit card numbers.

Where did you get this info from I was told that they did not store your card information.

The email they sent out to recent customers said that the set had been hacked and potentially credit card information had been taken, then there was a guy reporting that he had some dodgy activity on his card he was trying to sort out with his bank. Check your statements for transactions from russian or china or bloody jamaica mate

That clears it up, if you were online at the time of the hacking then your info could be gathered, but I will check in work Tmo , and see if they were correct in telling us info is not stored. Luckily I don,t buy off them on line.

Ah

Its been weeks. They should really sort their shit out. Must be costing them heaps in lost sales.

been like that for month and ahalf maybe. they dont be in any rush to get it going again. even a basic web so you can view producy and prices would be great.

below is a link to the site that hosts/prints their catalogue, just incase you dont have a hard copy

I'm surprised they haven't made an announcement regarding a new site or similar. As stated above, the lost $$$ from not having the site up must be huge.
