Nixon Williams hit by Cyber Security incident

Or that some people are over-sensitive?

You've been told several times in this thread that SJD are dangerous and incompetent but I don't recall you accepting that warning. And I was with them for 12 years before things started to slide and I bailed at the next year end.

If you haven't seen the signs on here they have been failing badly for some time and using barely capable people to look after your busines. Don't bitch at us if you've ignored the signals.

Apologies, I didn't realise that I had to accept your warnings. So here goes.....

'I officially accept the warnings in this thread that SJD are dangerous and incompetent despite the fact the my opening thread said exactly that. I accept that Malvolio is considerably more intelligent and superior to me and that they have every right to say I told you so and have been telling you so on this forum for the last five years despite the fact that I only joined yesterday. I am new on here and as such should expect to be treated as an inferior human being. Posters are entitled to insinuate that I am lazy, half brained or anything else they wish and they are not being abusive or trying to make themselves look clever, it is me who is being over sensitive'.

Please accept my sincere apologies!

[MrContractorMan]

Can't deny it I am afraid and at times it kinda spoils my more factual and helpful posts, that, to be fair will always be pretty gruff and straight talking, by muddying the waters between picking on someone and just posting some cold hard facts.

But in that case it's cold hard facts. Although if you keep crying it's quickly going to move in to the keyboard warrior territory to be fair.

Fair comment, I have had my say now

Can't say fairer than that. We've both said our piece and nothing wrong with a bit of toe to toe now and again.

Nixon Williams were crap before Xmas. They're milking this "issue" for all its worth and using it as an excuse....

I still use NW (don't laugh), and just received an update from them with the dreaded words: "Our security team has now detected that some data ... was copied from our system and we believe some of that has been leaked online".

[Dark Black]

I've "finally" had enough and started enquires with other accountants with a view to moving from NW. A shame as I've been with them a long time and up to a few years ago (when the venture capitalists got involved) they were pretty good.

I wouldn't hang around. Do it today.

Well. They are setting up freeagent and transferring all the data. No point moving until that has happened.

On a related note (don't know if you have pets) but I can't help feeling my local vets practice is taking me for a bit of ride with their extortionate prices and constant nudging to pay for products/services that I don't feel are entirely necessary.

Then, the other day, I read that more than half of the UK's vets practices are run by 6 venture capital companies.

Explains a lot....
