Title: Anybody ever used Next Day Brakes? Nightmare situation.
Post by: Squeeguk on November 26, 2012, 07:40:40 pm
Used them for the first time today and thought all was well after placing an order this morning.

This afternoon I get an email from a chap who tried to use their website and place an order. On checking out, he finds that all the details in his cart are my details. So he gets in touch and kindly points this out to me, along with sending an email to next day brakes advising them what has happened and to cancel his order as he does not want to use them any longer for fear that his details will be available to all and sundry as mine were.

Has this ever happened to anyone before? Not sure what I should do now and how many people have my personal info and if any have my payment details, etc? They were supposed to call me back, but not heard back from them yet.

Any ideas?

I would get straight onto the phone to your bank/card provider to get a new card number issued just to be safe :happy2:

Agree with this totally. Job for the morning, a pain but not nearly as much as the pain it could solve  :happy2:

Next day brakes sounds like brakes you press the pedal and the car doesn't stop till the next day.... :-)

Get a new card. Better safe than fleeced.
