Let us know if you have any banking queries’ Chief executive Benny Higgins said 40,000 accounts were hacked and 20,000 plundered for cash over the weekend. Bank has frozen all online transactions for 24 hours until situation is back ‘under full control’ MailOnline can reveal claims that hackers may have created cards for Tesco accounts to withdraw or spend money. One customer said he had never been given a debit card because he has an online savings account.
