News that the TalkTalk website had been hit by a "significant and sustained cyber-attack" broke last week.
The
phone and broadband provider, which has more than four million
customers in the UK, said bank details and personal information could
have been accessed.
But credit and debit card numbers had not been stolen, it said.
"In
the unlikely event that money is stolen from a customer's bank account
as a direct result of the cyber-attack [rather than as a result of any
other information given out by a customer], then as a gesture of
goodwill, on a case-by-case basis, we will waive termination fees," the company said on its website.
