☆ Provider of Faulty Computer System Apologizes to Hundreds Affected by UK Post Office Scandal

Read said the Post Office has drastically changed over the past few years and has earmarked around a billion pounds ($1.3 billion) for compensation. He also confirmed it would not pursue any further prosecutions and that it is actively looking to replace the much-altered Horizon system in its branches. The Post Office maintained that Horizon was reliable and accused branch managers of dishonesty. The number of victims is not fully known, and it emerged Tuesday that hundreds more may have been financially affected by the faulty computer system. A group of postal workers took legal action against the Post Office in 2016.

☆ UK postal scandal: How a software glitch and a centuries-old British company ruined peoples lives
  + stars: | 2024-01-13 | by ( Anna Cooban | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +10 min
The government — which owns the Post Office — has described the scandal as one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in British history. The software regularly showed that money — often many thousands of pounds — had gone missing from Post Office accounts. The Post Office has so far paid more than £138 million ($176 million) in compensation, a company spokesperson told CNN. “The Horizon system was a piece of machinery and software that wasn’t working correctly,” she said. “If the Post Office can do this to you, then God knows what any other brand is capable of,” she said.
