Why make a claim for the Virgin Media data breach?
If you’ve received notification that you’re affected by the Virgin Media data breach, you may be wondering: why make a claim at all?
It’s totally up to you as to whether you go ahead with a case or not. The law is there and it’s on your side, but it’s down to each and every victim to decide if they want to be a part of the group compensation action or not.
With this aspect in mind, here are some reasons as to why making a claim can be beneficial for you and for data protection on the whole.

There may be an estimated 15,000 victims affected in the Birmingham area who could be eligible to sign-up for a No Win, No Fee case. Potential estimated compensation pay-outs could reach up to £5,000.00 per Claimant.
