Avoid like a dose of the proverbial clap
Sorely disappointed with these chancers.
Have been waiting eons for the Capita data breach claim to come to fruition.
Suddenly after the Judge's decision notes got posted they've washed their hands with it and a senior partner (with their blessing apparently) had without MY permission taken the case files to a new firm and today I get an email inviting me to sign a new agreement.
I got Claude AI to read the judgement and give a summary - surprise surprise both Barings botch job and Crapita have had their *rses handed to them on a silver server by the judge - Barings for being zealous with their terminology of client harm "traumatised" was one verb used and Crapita got a good kick in the balls for trying to get it thrown out.
Now Barings know they're not going to get top tier payouts for the breaches - claimants will be lucky VERY lucky to get 1k before fees and expenses, (if that) so guess what?
Everyone's going to be getting a cake and bus fare home. Well done Barings - Well done 🤬 now 💩 in your hands and clap you pathetic useless lot.
I'll post Claude AIs response below. Top tip - if you were planning a cruise based on the proceeds of the claim don't bother. W⚓️s.
Don' touch Barings with a barge pole - complete chancers and a waste of bloody space.
JUDGEMENT ANALYSIS
"Here's a thorough summary of what the judgment says:
The case: Spurgeon & Ors v Capita plc [2026] EWHC 241 (KB), 9 February 2026
Around 4,000 claimants (represented by Barings Law) brought compensation claims following the 2023 Capita data breach, which exposed the personal data of 6.6 million people. Capita tried to have all the claims thrown out.
What Capita argued
Capita claimed Barings had committed an abuse of court process by "putting words into the claimants' mouths" — specifically using emotive language like "tormented," "violation of security," and "betrayal of trust" in the Particulars of Claim, words that hadn't come from the claimants themselves. Capita argued this had so tainted the evidence that all claims should be struck out.
What Master Dagnall decided
He refused to strike the claims out. His key reasoning was that pleadings are drafted by lawyers, not clients — they are not witness statements or evidence. Each claimant will still need to provide their own witness statement, and it's on that evidence the case will ultimately be decided. He found that Barings had done nothing wrong, and that solicitors have wide latitude in how they formulate a client's instructions into a pleading.
He did however express concern about some of the language — noting that words like "tormented" are vague and could mean anything from mild annoyance to serious mental anguish. His provisional view was that such language should be replaced with something more precise, like "varying degrees of substantial anxiety and distress." This will be resolved at a subsequent hearing.
What this means going forward
Capita essentially admitted that claimants may have genuine claims at some level, even if not necessarily at the £1,000 per person Barings is targeting. Now that the strike-out has failed, Capita faces a choice: contest each individual claim (very costly) or settle. On top of this, Capita was already fined £14 million by the ICO over the breach"

Hi John,
I’m sorry to hear how frustrated and unhappy you’re feeling about the way your claim against Capita has been handled. I completely understand how difficult it can be when a case takes time and things change along the way.
I’d like to first explain the change regarding your solicitor. The solicitor who has been handling these data breach cases has recently taken up another opportunity. However, because of his expertise and in-depth knowledge of these particular claims, it was felt that it would be in clients’ best interests for him to continue handling the files. This was also at his request, as it avoids the need to transfer your case to a new solicitor and potentially cause further delays.
We did send an email on 12 March to explain this change and to give you the opportunity to let us know if you did not want to accept the move. I’m sorry if this wasn’t clear or if it added to your frustration.
In relation to the recent judgment, I understand your concerns about the language used. While this was raised by Capita as part of their argument, Master Dagnall did note that the statements had been amended and approved by each claimant. I do appreciate how frustrating the length of time has been, but please be assured that the legal team has been working hard to respond to and overcome the challenges raised throughout the case.
I also want to reassure you that your case remains with the same legal team, and your agreement terms have not changed. The only difference is the name of the firm managing the case.
I have submitted your request for further information, and once this is received, I will arrange for someone from the new firm to contact you directly. They will be able to introduce themselves, explain how your case will continue to be handled, and answer any questions you may have about the recent hearing.
Kind regards,
Jessica Howkins

Hi Colin,
I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the service you have received.
I understand your frustration in one of your claims being rejected and having to submit several forms of evidence in order for us to review this case and the others you have, particularly when you feel things have been at a standstill.
Billing occurs when a client still has active cases and chooses to opt-out of our services after the cooling off period, this is due to the work that has been completed on your case and all information about this will be detailed in your agreement.
I have raised your complaint with the appropriate team and requested that they make contact with you as soon as possible to discuss your case and provide you with the full breakdown of the work completed on your case. I hope that together a resolution can be reached that will be satisfactory to you.
Alternatively, you can contact our team by calling 0161 200 9960.
I apologise once again for any frustration and inconvenience caused.
Kind regards,
Jessica Howkins

Hi Phil,
I am sorry to hear you are unhappy with how we have handled your case and that you feel scammed.
The FCA have yet to release their final version of the redress scheme, however this cap may not be limited to £700. At Barings Law, we explore two avenues for compensation for car finance claims, one is undisclosed commissions and the other is affordability. The FCA redress scheme, which was not a plan of action prior to law firms starting these claims, look at the commissions side of things and not affordability. Affordability claims is the second route we look into which can see compensation amounts exceed £700.
I am unable to locate your file with your name, please can you respond to the Trustpilot information request before the time limit expires. Once done, I will be able to access your file and arrange for your file handler to contact you and discuss this issue in further detail to explain how your claim(s) are progressing, the FCA redress scheme and any further issues you may have.
Alternatively, please contact our team by calling 0161 200 9960.
