Claim data leak distress compensation – Virgin Media leak


Virgin Media cybersecurity compensation action

You could be eligible to claim data leak distress compensation if you are one of the 900,000 people affected by the Virgin Media data breach that was revealed in 2020.

As long as you have received notification that you have been affected by the data leak, we should be able to represent you for a case on a No Win, No Fee basis. All you need to do is complete the forms here now and you can get started with your claim right away.

What is data leak distress compensation?

Data leak distress compensation can cover damages that you can receive as a victim of a breach, leak, or hack. It can normally be for the distress that you can suffer from that can arise from the loss of control of your personal information.

What this means is that it can be distressing to know that your right to privacy has been breached. Knowing that your personal information that you want – and deserve – control over is now exposed is not nice. This can be worse when we know that the personal data is particularly sensitive, and/or where it has, or could, fall into the hands of criminals. Knowing that at any moment you could be targeted for fraud and theft can be harrowing.

Because of this impact that people can naturally and understandably suffer from, you can be entitled to claim data leak distress compensation in accordance with the GDPR. You may also be entitled to recover damages for any losses and expenses that are also incurred, but you can just claim for the distress alone. In most cases, people are only claiming for the distress, and the amount can be based on the extent and severity of the distress that you suffer from.

Our early estimation for some victims of the Virgin Media data leak has been in the £5,000.00 mark.

Claiming for the Virgin Media data breach

Victims of the Virgin Media data leak could be entitled to claim data leak distress compensation, and we represent thousands of people right now on a No Win, No Fee basis.

We consider that there are grounds to claim and receive damages for any of the 900,000 people whose personal data was exposed in this breach. If you have suffered distress and/or loss, that is what you could be eligible to claim for.

We know that at least one unknown third-party accessed the exposed database during the ten-month period that it was accessible. The leak was eventually identified by a third-party security researcher, and hackers and criminals use similar techniques to identify freely exposed information and then use it to exploit people. As such, for victims of the Virgin Media data leak, knowing that their personal information could be in the hands of anyone can be distressing. This is what you could be eligible to receive compensation for.
