We cannot currently put a final figure on this, but our team of expert solicitors and barristers are aiming to win as much money as possible. We believe this could be up to £2,000 depending on individual circumstances. 

We anticipate that the LUHFT data leak claim will be litigated as a group action, meaning it grows stronger as more people sign up. If you know anyone who may have been affected, please encourage them to join the claim. We will keep you updated as the case progresses. 

It will not cost you a penny to sign up to join the claim.  By acting on a No-Win, No-Fee basis, you will only pay a percentage of the damages awarded to you if the case is successful.

If we don’t win the case, you will not pay anything. We will cover all the legal, court, and insurance costs. All you need to do is submit your details to our Chatbot and we will advise you on how to move forward.

To join our claim, the main piece of information you will need is a notification email from LUHFT, which was sent on or around February 9 2023. 

The email stated that there had been an “unintentional sharing of staff personal information”. It also explain that “A file was sent by email to a number of managers within LUHFT to support the ongoing management of payroll details as part of the industrial action arrangements. The spreadsheet file included a hidden tab which contained staff personal information. Whilst it was not visible to those receiving the email, it should not have been included in this spreadsheet. The information in this hidden tab included names, addresses, DOBs, NI numbers, gender, ethnicity, salary, it did not include bank account details”. 

It is important that you have retained this email to be able to claim, so please check your junk and spam folders, too.

Aside from the notification email, all you will need to provide is your name, email address, and phone number.

It takes under a minute to start your sign up and begin the process to claiming your compensation. To start your claim, all you need to do is submit your name, email address, home address, and phone number via our Chatbot. We will then send you a short questionnaire to confirm your eligibility and gather some further information.

Once we have carried out all the necessary checks, we will contact you to let you know if your application to join the claim has been successful. There’s nothing further to do at this point except sit back and let us do all the legal work!

We aim to update you on the progress of your claim every three months. Don’t forget, you do not pay anything to sign up.

We appreciate that you may not keep every email that you receive so we will do our best to assist you with this problem. Please still get in touch with us if you think you received the notification email but no longer have access to it.

No. You will not have to pay anything if we don’t win the claim, provided that you keep to the terms of our sign-up documents. This is what we mean by No-Win, No-Fee.

Your claim will be brought to court under the Data Protection Act 2018, which incorporates the GDPR. We believe that LUHFT have breached your privacy, which will be the focus of our argument.
