Overview

In February 2021, Total Fitness told its members that a cyberattack may have compromised their personal data. However, this was not an isolated incident. In 2024, another serious data breach exposed sensitive information – not due to hacking, but because of a failure to secure personal data properly. 

With multiple security failures in just a few years, customers are rightly asking questions about whether the company has sufficient cybersecurity measures in place, how seriously it takes its data protection responsibilities, and whether it has learned from past mistakes. 

Total Fitness customers and employees who had their data exposed may be entitled to compensation. Legal experts have launched a group action claim to hold the company accountable for its repeated failures to protect personal information. 

If you were a Total Fitness member or employee between 2018 and 2024, your data may have been compromised. Check now to see if you are eligible to join a Total Fitness data breach group action.

What do we know about
the
2021 Total Fitness data breach?

In February 2021, Total Fitness notified its members that their personal data may have been compromised following a cyber-attack. The stolen information included: 

  • Scanned copies of membership agreements 
  • Full names 
  • Bank account details and sort codes 

 

The breach exposed data dating as far back as June 2018, leaving members vulnerable to fraud and identity theft. 

What do we know about
the
2024 Total Fitness data breach?

A cybersecurity researcher discovered an unsecured database containing images and personal details of 470,000 members and staff. The database included: 

  • Photographs of members and employees 
  • Identity documents (such as passports and driving licenses) 
  • Bank and payment card details 
  • Phone numbers 
  • Immigration records 

 

This breach wasn’t the result of a cyber-attack but rather a failure to secure highly sensitive data, making it easily accessible to anyone who found the unprotected database.

Total Fitness data breach FAQs

Total Fitness has suffered two major data breaches in recent years: 

  • 2021 cyber-attack – Hackers targeted Total Fitness and accessed customer and financial records dating back to June 2018. 
  • 2024 data exposure – A cybersecurity researcher discovered an unsecured database containing 470,000 customer and staff records, including sensitive personal details. 

 

Those impacted by the breaches could be at risk of: 

  • Identity theft (if personal details, bank accounts, or identity documents were exposed). 
  • Financial fraud (unauthorised transactions or scams using stolen data). 
  • Privacy violations (especially for those whose photographs and sensitive documents were leaked). 
  • Phishing scams (fraudsters using exposed data to trick victims into providing more information). 

The 2021 breach impacted an undisclosed number of members whose records were stored in the compromised system. The 2024 breach exposed 470,000 members and employees, revealing personal data stored in an unprotected online database. 

Some individuals may have been affected by both breaches, increasing their risk of harm. 

The breaches exposed different types of personal information: 

  • 2021 cyber-attack: Membership details, bank account information, and financial records. 
  • 2024 data exposure: Member and staff photographs, identity documents, bank and payment details, phone numbers, and immigration records.
