Virgin Media data breach pay-outs and compensation

Now that we’ve launched our compensation action, some of the victims affected may be wondering whether there will be Virgin Media data breach pay-outs and how they might work.

Although we can’t know for sure if we will succeed with the action, we only take an action like this forward when we’re confident that we can win the case. It costs a significant amount of money to take an action like this forward, especially when we’re representing clients on a No Win, No Fee basis. This is a factor we must consider before we launch an action, and we’re happy to take the risk of cases forward.

We’ve launched our Virgin Media data breach compensation action and you can sign-up for a case on the main part of the website here.

Succeeding with the Virgin Media data breach compensation action

We’ve launched the Virgin Media data breach compensation action because we’re confident that we can reach a stage where victims will receive damages for what has happened.

We’re offering No Win, No Fee representation where we can write off our legal fees if a case doesn’t succeed, subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement (of course). This is a significant risk for us as there can be a lot of unknowns in any group action case, which is why you can be assured that we believe we can succeed with the action. As we have with other actions, we will honour our promises in black and white as well.

As such, we believe that we will reach a stage where Virgin Media data breach pay-outs will be issued for customers affected by the cybersecurity event.

How will Virgin Media data breach pay-outs work?

Virgin Media data breach pay-outs for victims claiming in the compensation action will likely be based on the following:

• Compensation for any distress caused by the loss of control of personal information;
• Compensation for losses and expenses;
• Damages for simply being the victim of a breach which, in some cases, can be achieved.

Although a group action will deal with the similar and joint issues for cases, we do account for individual factors in compensation claims of this nature.
