Claim Equifax compensation in the UK

You may have seen advertisements on how to claim Equifax compensation for the recent settlement in the U.S., but what about claims for the victims affected here in the UK?

We have a different jurisdiction here and it’s a different way that we’re pursuing compensation for UK victims. We’ve been acting for a number of people affected by the breach in England and Wales since news of the incident hit the headlines in 2017. Although we’re over two years on from the discovery of the breach, you still have time to join the action for compensation.

This is one of the dozens of different data breach group and multi-party actions we’re fighting for justice in. Make sure you start your claim as soon as you can, and here’s a little more information about what’s going on.

How to claim Equifax compensation in the UK

To claim Equifax compensation, you can sign-up for a No Win, No Fee claim with ourselves by contacting the team on 0800 634 75 75 or completing a contact form.

If you’re eligible to launch a case with us, you can instruct us to start the claim in one simple phone call if you like. You should already have been told that you were affected by the breach, but if you’re unsure, feel free to speak to the team or read our full information page here.

The important thing to know is that we have a separate jurisdiction to the U.S., so for a claim in the justification we work in (England and Wales) you can instruct us to represent you.

How much could you claim?

If you’re eligible to claim Equifax compensation, we can assess the value of the claim based on a number of factors.

These can include:

• How much of your information was exposed;
• The impact in terms of distress that the breach has had on you;
• Whether you have suffered any financial losses that are related to the breach.

Data breach compensation pay-outs are typically based on these kinds of factors. Simple claims at the “lower end” could be worth between £1,000.00 and £3,000.00, but we can tell you from experience that amounts can be far higher for more sensitive cases.

Will you win your Equifax compensation claim?

We believe that we can succeed with the action that we’re pursuing. As such, if you claim Equifax compensation with us, we’re happy to represent you on a No Win, No Fee basis because we’re confident that we can succeed with the case.

Although there can never be any guarantees, we only ever offer No Win, No Fee representation when we believe in the case.
