Nochex Warning

I think this is on topic as I guess some traders here in UAC used Nochex in
the past?

If you haven't logged in to your Nochex account for a year or two you may
find, as I did, that Nochex have taken all your money!
I had

Thanks for the heads-up. They have robbed my account too. Fortunately
I only had £2.10 left in there, but it might have been substantially
more as I was in the habit of leaving money received in there until I
needed to make a Nochex payment.

Why would the account need to be monitored? Every other email they send
me is sent automatically. I really do not believe there is an army of
clerks typing out "£9.47 has just been sent from your account" and
composing each marketing message individually. The whole point of the
Nochex model is that each account is not individually monitored. We
must assume that it was a conscious choice not to program in an
automatic email when raiding the accounts for "dormant" fees.
