Mother in Law My father in law certainly the timing is not ideal when it could be and he couldn't say the phones were playing up all day couldn't they live chat on their website and there anything then around 3 o'clock.

A review to understand exactly what happened that reliance on technology 103 double 3 double 3 do get in touch on the big day. Text. Should start your message with the text. a let me. Ask you. Just such a chance to. Ask him. Bruno Mars and just the way you are on B.B.C. Radio Leeds is quarter past 12 on Friday afternoon this is Larry Bard in for those green on the big Yorkshire phone in between one and 2 we'll ask whether your posh or not there's a new list out from Tatler magazine to magazine you want to hurt or if you're not Posh says the rules have changed when it comes to identifying where people are on the social ladder drinking York City that's Pasha parenting flying Ryanair that's part of apparently if they don't cancel the flight of course so much more of that between one and 2 this afternoon and then after 2 in the hot seat for Friday afternoon it is the M.P.

At home and whether you have to protect that with all that are going to remember hours and hours trying to sort out the antivirus software on the computer while they were fun days anyway the feds see a Turk help is a tech expert. Editor of the advice website gadget detective dot com and joins us this afternoon Hello Kai what a mess this was for 02 yesterday I mean catastrophe might not be too strong a word for them yeah so they the service was down pretty much for a whole day should have taken that long to get it back up again and it's not unique I mean you ask you know how much reputational damage will they suffer probably in the long term not that much he had an even longer outage a couple of years ago I think that's sort of long forgiven as long as they don't make a habit of it but I think it does tell us that these companies need to do more to protect what are essentially quite vulnerable services I mean the vulnerable to all sorts of attacks we see how computer systems get hacked all the time so it's possible to that he's vulnerable to human errors as may have been the case here vulnerable to espionage in our data being stolen so the data is now utility we expect to have it when we want it in the same way as city when we flip a light switch we expect the light to come on and for there to be juice coming out of the sockets so they have to do more now to increase the reliability of that data and just give me an idea of the scale of how intertwined data is with our life because I had a message from from an older listener who said I don't understand what the problem is people's mobiles are still working the mobile network was still working but the data network wasn't working why is that such a big problem but for many people I mean that is the only source of communication that they use they don't use the old mobile network anymore Sure well 1st of all at 3 o'clock yesterday is a no to use the I lost text and voice calls as well some some users did lose everything the other thing is that certain voice communication such as Face Time and Skype and the rest of those apps that we use to communicate by voice use data not more conventional when it's on a mobile phone contract but also. You know if you're a taxi driver and you receive your jobs via a mobile link you didn't get any jobs and if you did you can take car payments. Maybe you had to transfer some money was travelling and you couldn't and as a result of that something went badly wrong a house purchase didn't go through or you got bank charges because you went over drawn so that we line the smoke satellite navigation is require an Internet connection these days I never used to they do now funnily enough and again I was reduced to stopping strangers in the street and ask asking the way I mean I was yeah you know most shocked hadn't done that for a while and and I actually got rid of all my maps some time ago so I didn't even when I was leaving home I knew that this problem was ongoing I didn't have any paper maps I was read what I did was screenshots some of the maps whilst I was on wife I so I could at least refer to them when I was out yeah that was that was a that was a smart move by the sounds of it I remember when I switched mobile networks briefly recently. Briefly for about 8 hours I didn't have any data and suddenly hits you actually how much you use you so you can check the facts but you can't take Twitter yes you can't load the maps to find out where you are it is a bit of a worry that isn't how reliant we are on technology. I think you know you're not going to put the genie back in this particular bottle and instead I would say data is a utility in the same way that electricity is a utility and we shouldn't necessarily be saying you know that's not used to use data what we should be saying to the companies is you know what you have to do more to protect this wonderful resource and that's why it's important that all those 32000000 people affected make a claim against all 2 for their losses both for the money they paid for the service and for any consequential losses you have a right under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 you can make claims for losses you have to be able to prove a loss but if you can prove it you can claim it and if they don't pay you there's an ombudsman and if we make it expensive for them then they will tend to get it right you know the fact it was all over the news might be proof enough I suppose in this particular case but good to talk to you. Just thanks for joining us that is 5 C.

West Yorkshire travel B.B.C. Radio only needs to do that we'll see how the roads on the rails I was George Wallace Hi George. Afternoon all could be fairly well on the motorway so far this afternoon no issues to make you aware of on the M 62 and one looking fairly good in both directions of heading out towards the center of Leeds a little busy on the inner ring road towards the Omni gyrates real not outbound side so perhaps expect delays there also looking fairly busy and Murphy holds on Huddersfield road in both directions were busy leaving Huddersfield itself Halifax road on the side towards the M 62 at Junction 24 and to have a home looking fairly busy at the moment Brickhouse road the A 6 for 4 on the inbound side there's more in half an hour. Your travel. 3012301 A B.B.C. Radio only. B.B.C. Radio. Just because. It. Still. Sucks because. I have. Just because. Of you. When. To. Speak. And. Just because. There's a new suit. Well . Michael bublé and love you anymore on B.B.C. Radio Leeds 2521 on Friday afternoon this is Larry in for Liz I'm here until 3 o'clock this afternoon and then Gail LOFTHOUSE will get home tea time 3 until 6 here on B.B.C. Regulates West Yorkshire sport daily on the way from 6 o'clock tonight hello to Dave who's been in touch here on the subject of whether we're too reliant on technology the worry is so as Dave is that most of the things we do have become tied in with data giving mobile operators an excuse to charges for using more and more data no longer of the charges for phone calls and text messaging it's all about how many gigabytes you get on the contract and they get you tied into that by making all your messaging data that's from Dave and I think that's an interesting point because if you use say what's up which is the biggest. Data led messaging system if you haven't used whatsapp It's like text messages but people started to use it because you can send pictures understandably is free if you know you can deduce using the Internet to send pictures rather than picture messaging which used to cost a small fortune if you sent a few of them but of course what's up uses the Internet so you need to have a certain amount of data in order to send pictures and if you want to send videos as well to family or whatever then that takes up your data too and then you have if you have an i Phone if you have an Apple i Phone for example then you're using messaging used to be text messaging of course but actually if you're going i Phone to i Phone it now automatically create something called an are you message. And the idea is that that works over the Internet so it doesn't go into how many text messages you are allowed in your contracts or whatever but don't have access to the Internet you can't send a message and it doesn't tell you you can't send a message until you realize that somebody hasn't received the other and so it's a point you make that dive thank you very much for your message.
