    And don't try logging in on a different computer because you will need to remember the answers to one of those 3 security questions you set - I sent them this email on Monday and still no response.

    While I applaud your efforts to upgrade the security on your investor services - I am finding it frustrating to use.

    You see, I cannot remember what my favourite animal is, much like I can't remember my favourite colour, the first-girl-I-kissed's name, or my favourite toy. These type of security questions are very subjective and not important details in my life. So I forget.

    I do remember things like my maternal grandfather's name as it is objective and unchanging. (Although my wife's paternal grandfather's first dog's name is probably something I wouldn't remember either.)

    I seem to recall that two of the three security questions were of the objective type (see I haven't totally succumbed to dementia) but the problem is the site keeps banging on about this poor animal that is clearly no longer in my good books.

    Please could you instruct your login service to ask me one of the other questions - alternatively send me a procedure for resetting the questions.

    Banksie, I wasn't going to go there, don't get me started!

    Have to wonder what set the site off on such a ludicrous procedure, were they hacked? Or is it more likely that someone is justifying their existence/job?

    I think I've aged considerably in the last few attempts at getting around Computershare, pent up anger/frustration is not good for the health.

    Good luck in getting a response to your message in a decent timeframe, I better get mine before you get yours though! The acknowledgement on 4 April said they would respond as soon as possible???

    Sadly, I don't think we will see any improvements sometime soon. Pity, as if it weren't for investors, where would they be?

    Angry Been there and got very upset

    No one has mentioned Penny!

    Don't you love Penny?

    Penny may be able to answer the questions you do not need to ask.

    Penny gets rather confused if you ask her a 'hard' question.

    Over thirty years ago there was a text based computer game called Adventure where you could get stuck in a "maze of twisty little passages" (you keep picking a direction to move and you are still in the maze) which played on the University mainframe computer.

    Penny is the modern version.

    Just logged into Compushare and see that my Telecom shares are no longer listed in my portfolio. No evidence at all on the website that I've ever owned them. I've sent them an email enquiring politely where my shares might be. I have to say that this freaks me out just a little. I'll leave it a couple of days before I move into a full blown panic
