Thanks Bob

I know I never had invoices, bank details, credit card details, I did have login ID and passwords, list of names but they were all jumbled.

Then comes the size of the data has been put on a CD to send back to me (waiting for my address) yet it is said to be over 100GB that would take a lot of CDs.

This backup drive did have 100+GB on but there is no mention of what is on. 90% of fragile data is protected.

I just can’t imagine not wiping it. It just puts a ? on my thoughts.

Thanks Duke

Of course he turns it off then on and yes it will turn data on. He went (without my knowledge) and purchased a tesco payg bundle put £10 on and get £10 free (for a month) and said google keeps downloading.

I give up (with him) but I will tell him of turning off and on, turn data back on and I will see if I can set data to 0

Originally it was a backup drive, I am sure I formatted (cleaned it) The data was said to be

letters, invoices, bank details, credit card details. Details of login ID and passwords, list of names

I have no invoices no bank details credit card, the only login ID and passwords were on a notepad ie jxxnxxy it’s that why I am confused.

I asked to be more specific the reply

is that it’s about over 100GB of data, I have not looked at all.  I did make a backup to forward on to the seller,

Via ebay he knows my name, he wants my address to send me CD or could it be used in fraud. As I say at first it was Linda now it’s James

I am not sure, the data isn’t needed, I am concerned they may have my data.

It’s not being said what it is, surely if it’s mine I would be told

ie

your bank is ——

your login for — is —-

The letter is from —–

etc

Most have data as in

letters, invoices, bank details, credit card details. Details of login ID and passwords, list of names

Thanks PM I will look into Smarty. I turned mobile data off and it come back on. This is on a new Nokia 1.

Graham I will see if I can set the limit to zero.

Cheers

Thanks Dave

He does have and like the triple credit, however the mobile went on the internet and used all his credit. I think he should not have a smart phone, then it wouldn’t connect?

Wasbit I had a Tesco PAYGO and last time I used it I had £8 of my money, I put it in dads smart to find my credit is no longer available. Your lucky it’s still on after 180 days to use it.

It seems even if you get hold of an old (I have) media creation it’s of no use

Ed I always thought exfat to be worse than NTFS as x normally stands for old, however I have never used it, maybe I should try.

Cheers

Thanks Bob At the moment I did reply asking to put it on CD if I hear again I will ask.

I never thought of that

I can do that, the cupboard I will store it in has a socket.

It used to be the airing cupboard (hot tank emmersion heater). Rather than fetch the power out, it was converted.

Cheers

That seems the case Bob, not keen on local.

I might just keep it in a cupboard till a rainy day.

Cheers

Thanks Bob (PS not been in Wilko yet)

I can sign in with my gmail so I completed the form with that.

I am still a little confused.

It’s going on ebay next Wednesday for 7 days, if I buy postage now (collect+) what happens when sold, but if it doesn’t sell I have wasted on postage, I could do with a quote

I did go in the post office and asked (giving sizes and weight inluding padding) how much it would be. It’s £16.62 I think that’s a bit high for postage doesn’t leave much for bidding.

I am looking at post to open up the area rather than local.

I have been watching others (of the same item) on ebay and they don’t get much. I did sell the same on ebay once and only Got £30 collection only.

Cheers
John

[johnbarry]

Thanks PM

I did register with collect plus last year, I try to sign in no go so I re registered, it sent an conformation email. I didn’t get it, I remebered I never got it last time.

There is no contact on there web.

I am aware I can sign in with my gmail but I prefer not.

Cheers
John

[johnbarry]

Thanks Duke

Boris it seems a doddle to find a postcode for somewhere, thanks

These will come in handy

Thanks Bob

Collect Plus seems easy enough, it seems you only need the weight (not pack size like others). I will try it further once (if) I get a bid.

Sadly though on What can I send using CollectPlus? it doesn’t say computers?

Jukebox Thanks for the link.
I tried for a quote it wants to know where to. I don’t know, so hermes is of no use.

Thanks
