Poker match

Our regular correspondent John Loader at DotSix Brailling Services has been playing what he calls ‘internet poker’ with his bank.
Last week his account went heavily overdrawn for no apparent reason. John told the bank, who immediately returned the money that had disappeared – apparently stolen.
Unfortunately the money has disappeared again. But he cannot complain about the responsiveness of the bank’s computers, which have written to him offering to double his overdraft limit. ‘Presumably so if I’m defrauded again the thieves can take even more,’ he says.
