For sure.
Other service providers do regularly remind me to check and update my details.
It's the first time that I've seen a notice display all of my details and each form of them in full and plain sight.
I can't think of another service check that does this.
The usual method that I recall is that only the last 3 or 4 characters of the secure item will be shown. The rest is either hidden or not stated.
I think this goes beyond just being not what I want, and falls into the category of being a potential security breach in itself.
