In the Virgin Media data breach, 900,000 people had their data exposed via an unsecured database, and swathes of personal details were left vulnerable to unauthorised eyes. The high number of affected customers means that Your Lawyers has seen fit to launch a consumer class action, also known as a group action, to hold Virgin Media to account for their breach of data protection duties.
If you have been notified by Virgin Media of your involvement in the data breach, you may be eligible to claim compensation. As we expect many claimants to join our legal action, we have made the registration process quick and easy with our simple sign-up forms, so do not hesitate to get your claim started with us today.

Have you been affected by the Virgin Media data breach? Sign-up to claim compensation in the Virgin Media Group Action now for the breach of your personal information.
Your Lawyers has launched a Group Action Claim for the data breach, and anyone affected can now sign-up to claim and be a part of it.
The Virgin Media data breach has involved over 900,000 people, mainly customers, with their personal information left exposed online for 10 months between April 2019 and February 2020. Virgin Media claim that the breach was down to an ‘incorrectly configured’ database resulting from an employee error. Investigations into the breach have revealed so far that the database was accessed by an unknown third-party at least once during the 10 months it was exposed. It is still unknown if the third-party will misuse the sensitive information involved.
Your Lawyers has officially launched its Virgin Media Group Action which could lead to a total pay-out of up to £4.5bn for the 900,000 victims affected by the data breach.
Announcing the significant development in the legal action for compensation this week, Lawyer and Director, Mr Aman Johal, said:
‘Your Lawyers will hold Virgin Media to account for this avoidable breach of private information, and we will do everything possible to ensure justice for the victims prevails. The door is open for victims to join the action, and now is the time to act.’
News of the latest step toward compensation has gained widespread media coverage, and Your Lawyers has seen a huge surge in new sign-ups. Anyone affected is encouraged to join the legal action now.
When is the Virgin Media compensation deadline expected to be for those who are affected by the recent data breach event that was discovered earlier this year?
We answer this key question for you, and we also advise on the serious perils of missing the deadlines. With early provisional estimations of case values being up to £5,000.00 in this action, can you really afford to miss out on the chance to claim?
Our advice is always the same: act now to avoid any chance of missing out by starting your case here today.
We’re now coming up to almost six months since news of the Virgin Media data breach hit the headlines, and some are asking whether there will be a group litigation for the data event.
Although it’s still early days, there could be a formal court litigation established. If this happens, people will need to make sure that they have signed up for a case before any final deadline, or they could miss out.
Here’s what you need to know and how to get started today to avoid any chance of missing out.
Our Virgin Media data breach group action is well underway, and we now represent a large number of clients for cases on a No Win, No Fee basis.
If you have yet to sign up for a legal case, you should do so as soon as you can. You could be entitled to claim thousands of pounds in damages for any distress suffered by the loss of control of your personal information.
Here’s some information about the action and what to expect if you have yet to start your case.
Will there be a formal Virgin Media data breach Group Litigation Order? With the compensation action underway and many people signed-up, a GLO may well be established.
As a victim of the data breach, you probably want to know more about this and what a GLO is, as well as how you can be a part of a GLO. It’s important to make sure that you are a part of a GLO when one is formed as that’s the way in which you can then benefit from decisions made as part of a GLO.
