Start Your Virgin Media Data Breach Claim
If you’ve yet to start your Virgin Media data breach claim, here’s what you need to know about joining the action and how we’re helping people affected by this event.
News of the cybersecurity incident surfaced earlier this month, with as many as 900,000 people falling victim to a data exposure event. Names, contact information and even some details about contracts are involved in the leak, with an unsecured database left accessible between April 2019 and February 2020.
In response to the breach, we’ve launched our group action for people affected, and we’re representing Claimants on a No Win, No Fee basis.
Virgin Media GDPR Claim For Compensation
If you’re one of the 900,000 people affected by the recent cybersecurity event, you could be entitled to make a Virgin Media GDPR claim for compensation on a No Win, No Fee basis with us.
As the breach period took place between April 2019 and February 2020, the GDPR applies. This vital piece of legislation not only means that Virgin could receive a substantial GDPR fine, but it also allows victims to make a claim for compensation. Money from fines is a totally separate thing to a legal case which is why we’ve set up the group action for people to join.
As a victim, all you need to do is complete the simple forms on the main page here and you can get your GDPR compensation claim started right away.
Virgin Media Data Breach Group Action
We’ve officially launched our Virgin Media data breach group action where the 900,000 victims of the recently announced cybersecurity event can sign-up for a legal case here.
We’ve formally notified Virgin Media about the case, and we’re taking on growing numbers of new clients every day. Given the number of people affected by the beach, it’s likely that this will form into a group action with the court. There are a few ways that this can happen, but the likelihood that there will be one consolidated group is high.
As such, if you’re affected by the breach, we’ve made the process for securing your place in a formal group action nice and easy with this dedicated website.
