UK travel money firm Travelex is still offline more than 5 days after a #cyberattack.
The foreign-currency seller has been working on the issue since the software virus attack on New Year’s Eve.
“We regret having to suspend some of our services in order to contain the virus and protect data,” Travelex boss Tony D’Souza said.
The company has resorted to carrying out transactions manually, providing foreign-exchange services over the counter in its branches.
Travelex has a presence in more than 70 countries and has over 1,200 branches and 1,000 ATMs worldwide, with exchange machines a common sight at airports, and customers can also use a smartphone app.
It has affected Sainsbury’s Bank, Barclays, and HSBC amongst others which all use the Travelex platform.
