A specialist website has been established for people to join the pending Virgin Media Data Breach Group Action. Here, you can sign-up for No Win, No Fee representation<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

If you have received confirmation from Virgin Media that you are one of the 900,000 victims of the recent cybersecurity breach<\/strong><\/a> between April 2019 and February 2020, you should be eligible to join. The site has been set up so that people can formally start their legal case as opposed to just registering for updates about potential action. We have notified Virgin Media and are actively pursuing live compensation claims.<\/p>\n

Here is an outline of what to do to join the action<\/strong><\/a> and some information about the legal case that we have started.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Joining the Virgin Media data breach compensation action<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At present, the Virgin Media Data Breach Group Action that should form through later court proceedings is in its infancy. We are only a couple of weeks on from news of the breach being issued, but our action is well underway.<\/p>\n

You should (and can) sign-up now <\/a><\/strong>to make sure that you are a part of the legal case that is being put forward. To do this, all you need to do is complete the forms on the website here<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

Your eligibility is checked as part of the form, although the consensus is that you can start a case if you have been notified by Virgin Media that you are affected by the recent cybersecurity event. All you then need to do is complete the rest of the simple forms, and your case can be started right away.<\/p>\n

We are offering No Win, No Fee representation for those that claim with us. We do this because we believe that victims of this breach should be entitled to access the justice that they deserve.<\/p>\n

Information about the legal case<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The legal case that we have initiated is for the 900,000 victims of the recently announced data breach to claim compensation.<\/p>\n

Damages may be awarded for the loss of control of personal information, and Claimants can also be eligible to receive compensation for losses and expenses. In accordance with current standings, people can also claim for simply being the victim of the breach as well.<\/p>\n

With the exposed data for over a thousand victims linked to requests relating to potentially explicit websites, this is also something that we can factor into a case as well. Those whose data has been exposed should be informed precisely what information of theirs has been exposed, which can be taken into account if we reach the settlement stage of the process.<\/p>\n

About the pending Virgin Media Data Breach Group Action<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When the formal court process goes ahead, the Virgin Media Data Breach Group Action will likely be established as a Group Litigation Order (GLO) or a similar multi-party action.<\/p>\n

With our firm representing clients in over 45 different group and multi-party actions, we are ready for the case reaching this crucial stage.<\/p>\n

As The<\/em> Group Action Lawyers, our expertise in this niche and complex area of law is extensive. To start your case today, visit the website here<\/strong><\/a> and get the process started.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
