Where are we at with the action?

We have been pursuing claims for those affected by the Virgin Media data leak that was discovered in early 2020 for several years now, and we represent thousands of people engaged in our group action for compensation. We are at an advanced stage for those who we have been representing for quite some time, and we remain confident that we will be able to resolve the action in favour of our clients.

As is typically the case in a large group actions like this, Virgin Media is trying its best to prevent claims from being successful and is refusing to issue pay-outs as things stand. In our view, liability is straightforward in this case because the database that was involved had been left exposed as a result of an incorrect configuration issue. To make things worse, the database was left there for a period of 10 months and was only discovered by a third-party security researcher. How can Virgin Media possibly dispute that they are at fault for what has happened?

The GDPR is a vital piece of legislation that can allow people who have been the victim of a data breach to claim compensation for any distress that has been caused by the loss of control of their personal information. In this case, people lost control of their personal information when it was exposed online, and we know that at least one unknown third party accessed the exposed database. For many of those we represent, they have told us about the distress that has been caused to them. As such, in accordance with the GDPR, that is the basis on which we are pursuing cases for them.
