A330 wing cracks
 
I heard a rumour that a european registered A330 has wing cracks that cannot be repaired.The aircraft has no history I believe of any HARD landings-anybody care to comment?

Any further information, you really didn't give a lot to go on?

I know A320 had wing cracking and corrosion problems but first I heard of A330's wing cracking.

Ok, I will narrow it down a bit.My company did some work for a middle european 330 operator as their aircraft was grounded due to the discovery of some cracks in the wings during a check.Airbus reckon that they are not repairable and the ac may be a write-off.I don't want to say a country/operator until it is confirmed !

Unrepairable ?

Then these are not the already known rib cracks, but perhaps spar cracks that have occured ?
