Claiming data breach compensation for the Virgin Media Leak

Thousands of people are claiming data breach compensation as victims of the serious Virgin Media data leak that came to light in early March 2020. Some 900,000 people’s information was left on a database that was accessible online due to an incorrect configuration error. It is understood that the information was left accessible for a period of 10 months between April 2019 and February 2020, with the issue only being discovered by a third-party security researcher.

Victims who we represent on a No Win, No Fee basis are claiming data breach compensation for distress that has been caused by the loss of control of their personal information. The GDPR can entitle victims of a data leak to claim compensation for distress, and victims could be eligible to receive thousands of pounds in compensation.

We are committed to access to justice which is why we are representing our clients on a No Win, No Fee basis. Working this way also shows our confidence in that we believe that we can resolve the action in favour of our clients.

Our ongoing action

Our action has been ongoing for several years now and we represent thousands of people who are affected by this data leak. For many of those who we represent, their cases are at an advanced stage, although we continue to take new cases on.

Whether you are still eligible to join the action will depend on a number of factors, including when you contact us to see if we can assist you. As the data leak actually started over three years ago, there is already an argument that you could be out of time for certain damages if you were to try to start your case now. In most circumstances, people normally have six years in which to pursue a data breach case, so they can still be in time to start your claim with us. It is definitely worth submitting a claim to us so that we can vet it and confirm if we can help you.

There can be a number of deadlines and dates involved in a claim for compensation like this, so we can only give you very basic and general advice in this regard. You will need to submit a claim to us or speak to us to find out what the relevant dates that apply to you and find out whether you are still in time to claim.
