Lloyds TSB called me Wdnesday morning very early to advise that I have had 2 attempts made on my account from Austrailia. one for over £400 and another for a bit less. I am not happy that this garage represents Shell and the corporate image in this way and on-one is doing anything to assist me or any others in our posistion that are having our cards cloaned in this way. I have had my account frozen, my card cancelled and am very distressed by the whole thing and have to wait for my bank to reissue cards etc. I have been advised to contact trading standards and the police re this. I am writing this email in good faith that you will look into this for all of us that have had this happen to us by this garage. Many Thanks Sarah Vaughan Dear Mr Donovan
