More than 4,000 people have now signed up to a group legal action following the M&S data breach – using Join the Claim to check their eligibility and take action.
The breach, which involved one of the UK’s most recognised retailers, has raised serious concerns about how personal data is managed. Since the incident came to light, we have seen a sharp rise in registrations, with growing numbers of people taking steps to hold organisations accountable.
What’s the claim about?
This group action is for individuals whose data may have been exposed in the M&S breach. It’s not just about financial compensation; it’s also about setting higher standards for how companies handle personal information.
At Join the Claim, we connect consumers with leading UK law firms. All claims are handled on a no win, no fee basis, and checking eligibility takes just a few minutes.
Why this matters
Data breaches can have lasting effects. If your data was exposed you may be left dealing with fraud attempts, scam messages or long-term anxiety about identity theft. Group claims give people a way to take meaningful action when things go wrong.
As our founder Jordan Clayton explains:
“Data breaches expose serious gaps in how organisations manage sensitive information. And when things go wrong, it’s consumers who deal with the consequences. Group claims give people a way to take action and send a clear message: we expect better protection. This isn’t just about compensation. It’s about accountability, and building better standards so breaches like this don’t keep happening.”
