The Your Lawyers Virgin Media action for compensation for those who have been affected by the recent data breach is fully up and running and has been for weeks.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re now acting for a large number of people for claims having been contacted for advice soon after breach notifications were issued. We have been in contact with Virgin Media since the start and we continue to take new legal cases forward.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a little information about the action we\u2019ve launched, our mission, and who we are.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Your Lawyers Virgin Media action live and launched<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Your Lawyers Virgin Media action for justice for victims of the recent data breach is well underway.<\/p>\n

As a leading firm of consumer action and data breach claims experts, we knew this incident was an action that\u2019s perfectly suited to our experience. We represent thousands of clients in over 35 separate data group and multi-party actions. We have also received Steering Committee appointments, including for the first GDPR Group Litigation Order (GLO) in England and Wales.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re now acting for a large group of claimants, with our action launched soon after news of the breach hitting the headlines. We\u2019ve spoken to the media a few times<\/strong><\/a> about people\u2019s rights for justice, and how we can help them.<\/p>\n

Our mission<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Our mission is simple. We want to obtain some form of justice for the victims whose personal information has been exposed in this breach. That\u2019s the primary purpose of the Your Lawyers Virgin Media action that we\u2019ve launched.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important that the victims are not forgotten. Any fine that\u2019s issued by the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) isn\u2019t designed to be used for compensation claims. For victims to be able to receive damages as their justice for their data being exposed, a separate legal case needs to be initiated. Our action is for the 900,000 victims of this breach to come together as part of one united front. There\u2019s strength in numbers, and we want to make sure that those who are most affected by this breach have a voice.<\/p>\n

The law can entitle victims to be able to claim for the distress caused by the loss of control of personal information. Losses and expenses can also be claimed back in addition to any case for distress as well.<\/p>\n

You can start your claim on\u00a0 the main\u00a0 section of the website here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
