Here’s a brief Q and A to answer some of the key questions about how to know if your data has been exposed and what this may mean:

Q: Has my data been exposed in the Virgin Media data breach?

A: You should have received notification from the company to confirm if it was. This might have been issued by email or text, and should have been received shortly after news of the incident hit the headlines.

Q: Has my contract data been exposed?

A: In over 1,000 cases, potentially private and sensitive contact data may have been exposed as well as the usual personal details affected by the leak.
