Join the Claim

Many people don’t realise this, but yes, you can join multiple group action claims at the same time.

If you’ve faced more than one issue (for example, a data breach and an overcharged service), each claim is treated separately.
You just need to meet the eligibility criteria for each one.

These cases operate independently, so joining one won’t invalidate your place in another. The only limitation is that the courts won’t award compensation twice for the same harm, which protects everyone and keeps the process fair.

If you think you might be affected by more than one issue, it’s worth checking. You might be eligible for more than you expect.

‼️LastPass fined £1.2 million after major data breach affecting 1.6 million UK users

LastPass, a widely used password management service that helps individuals and businesses store and manage their login details securely, has been fined £1.2 million by the UK’s Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) following a major data breach.

The incident dates back to 2022 and ultimately affected up to 1.6 million people in the UK alone. LastPass is one of the most recognisable password managers on the market, with more than 20 million users worldwide and around 100,000 businesses relying on its services. That scale, combined with the sensitive nature of the data it holds, makes this breach particularly significant:

🚨Government data stolen in cyber attack!

A fresh cyber attack on UK government systems has reignited concerns about how securely sensitive data is being handled, and why many people remain uneasy about proposals for a national digital ID system.

On Friday, a government minister confirmed that data held on behalf of the Home Office has been stolen in a hack, although officials say they believe the risk to individuals is “low”. The incident has been referred to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), and an investigation is ongoing.

Speaking to the BBC, Trade Minister Chris Bryant confirmed that a security breach had occurred and that the vulnerability was “closed pretty quickly” once detected. The affected systems were operated on the Home Office’s behalf by the Foreign Office, whose staff identified the intrusion. While a Chinese-affiliated hacking group is suspected, Bryant stressed that investigators do not yet know who is responsible.

Some media reports have suggested that the stolen data may include visa-related information, though this has not been formally confirmed by the government. What is clear is that government-held data has been accessed without authorisation, and that alone is enough to raise serious questions about security, oversight and accountability.

🚨 A major data breach at global marketing giant Dentsu may have exposed highly sensitive personal information, and the impact could reach far beyond employees.

Files containing bank details, payroll data, salary info, NI numbers and contact details were taken from Dentsu’s UK division, Merkle. While the company says the data hasn’t appeared online, financial information is one of the most dangerous to lose.

Emerging reports now suggest that client and customer data may also be affected, including the incident involving train operator LNER. This raises serious questions about how widely this breach may spread.

💥 The ripple effect of data breaches!

When a data breach hits the headlines, the focus is usually on the company — how it happened, how much it will cost, and how long recovery will take.

But behind those headlines are real people whose information was exposed. Customers, employees, and suppliers who never agreed to shoulder that risk.

The truth is, the impact of a data breach doesn’t stop at the boardroom door. It ripples outwards — into homes, workplaces, and communities — leaving emotional, financial and sometimes even physical scars.

If you’ve been affected by a breach, you don’t have to face it alone. Support is available, and in many cases, you could be entitled to compensation:

🚨Jaguar Land Rover cyberattack update: payroll data confirmed stolen!

The fallout from the Jaguar Land Rover cyberattack continues. In a significant new development, the company has now confirmed that payroll-related data was accessed during the attack – raising serious concerns for both current and former employees.

This marks a shift from earlier updates, where the full nature of the stolen data remained unclear.

👉 What data has now been confirmed as affected?
Jaguar Land Rover has told staff that the attackers gained unauthorised access to personal data used to manage employment, payroll and benefits. This includes information linked not only to current employees, but also to former staff whose records were still being held.

When we think about data breaches, we picture cybercriminals and hacking groups, but some of the most damaging breaches start much closer to home.

Across the UK, insider breaches are on the rise.
🚨 An NHS worker accessing 100+ patient records without permission
🚨 Wiltshire Police accidentally leaking passwords, access codes and officer details
🚨 Employees mishandling sensitive information every single day

These aren’t high-tech cyberattacks. They’re human lapses, and their consequences can be just as serious.

Whether it’s human error or deliberate misuse, organisations have a legal duty to protect your data. When they fail, you have the right to ask what went wrong, what was exposed, and whether you may be entitled to compensation.

Stay informed. Protect your rights. And don’t assume the threat always comes from “hackers”, sometimes, it’s already inside the system.

🚨 Digital ID debate in Parliament leaves big questions unanswered

On Monday 8th December, MPs met to discuss the government’s intention to introduce a mandatory national digital identity after nearly three million people signed a petition calling for the idea to be scrapped.

The government has said the system will be used to support efforts to tackle illegal migration. It is expected to become a compulsory part of Right to Work checks before the end of the current parliamentary term and would hold basic identity details — including a person’s name, date of birth, nationality, residency status and a photograph.

For three hours, MPs traded views. But the debate highlighted just how little certainty exists about what the government is proposing.

👉 A few points stood out:
- No agreed factual baseline. MPs noted they were debating without shared facts.
- Concerns over mandate. Several MPs argued that a mandatory digital ID was not in the government’s manifesto.
- Cost uncertainty. Opposition MPs cited an OBR estimate of £1.8bn. Ministers rejected that figure outright.
- Risks of expanded state monitoring and weakened privacy protections. A Labour MP warned that a digital ID system could increase state control, especially when considered alongside other developments such as the wider use of facial recognition technology.

Why is the public uneasy? Read more here: https://jointheclaim.com/digital-id-debate-in-parliament-leaves-big-questions-unanswered/
