Human error data breaches: the Virgin Media case
Human error data breaches are incredibly common. When it comes to how we approach this factor in an action like the Virgin Media legal cases that we have launched, we look at systemic failures.
In short, people can claim compensation where the cause of a data breach is triggered by a so-called human error. There are usually organisational failures to consider, especially in this case when information was left exposed for a period of 10 months.
The law can mean that the negligence of an employee can fall on to the organisation in any event, so people can still claim.

Virgin Media data breach court case: warning about deadlines!
It’s likely that a formal Virgin Media data breach court case will be established which will then be used to manage the claimants as part of one action.
When this happens, there will usually be a court-imposed cut-off date for people to join the action. To benefit from the decisions made in the court case, including settlements, people will need to be a part of the action. For example, there may be an established Group Litigation Order (GLO).
Here’s a very important warning about making sure you join the action before any deadline hits. In fact, we urge you to take action now because missing the deadline is very easy, and it happens to thousands of people in many different actions.
