Does anyone know if the ICO impose penalties on firms that are proved to be recording inaccurate data or failing to keep data up to date? Does the ICO award anything to the consumer?

Bloddy hell, I never knew there was a 12 months limitation for ICO claims! Thats v. useful info indeed.
Fortunately the offending data is from this year.
But useful to know the 12 months' rule for future purposes.

Dunno whether it's official - I suspect that I'm being fobbed off! (probably having to deal with 1yr+ queries will impinge on their 3hr lunchbreak lol)
Maybe one of the more influential members of this site (one of the mods, maybe,) could use their considerable clout to shed some light? (Or would this impinge......? lol)CAVEAT LECTOR

Re: Information Commissioner's Office
Useful link, thx. Might come to court. However, can I bring an action where there are no financial damages (just a breach of the DPA)?Comment
