Compensation for what, i.e. what losses have you incurred?  Exactly what bank details have been disclosed - does the third party have login access to make payments and manage your account, and have they actually withdrawn funds?

If a third party has accessed your personal data without authority then you could notify the ICO about the data protection breach but that would in all likelihood achieve a slapped wrist for them and nothing for you....

You have to supply a signature to obtain access your account Did they do this by fountain pen or quill feather?

So can we assume that you engaged this company to claim PPI for you? 

If so you gave them permission when you signed up to them.

For some context (though I'm not sure it helps!) it's worth reading the OP's previous posts on this on one of the PPI threads, most recently at https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/77894640#Comment_77894640

hi no i didn't give them permission to access any other account ,,, my origional signature was for another account ,, which they got paid or their work by me ,, but they tried to gain access to another account but the signature was out of date ,,, so bank contacted me personally and i reused to let the company get involved after what i found out about them in here ,, yet a year down the line they sent me an invoice out the blue ,,now i have the ombudsmen involved as they forged my signature to get my details over a year after it is out of date even the bank said something's wrong,,,, i dont like being threatened to pay as the money is being obtained by fraud

What bank requires a signature to gain access?  (How 1920's)
On a side note, how does a signature "go out of date?"

When you started the claim via them, did you list all your accounts you had?

If this relates to the story in the other thread, you say there that the claim company has now invoiced you £1700, over and above the other claim that you agreed to - they appear to be a fairly bog standard ambulance-chasing outfit but their typical no-win-no-fee business model seems to be to seek 24% of your settlement, which would obviously imply that they've successfully claimed a £7K PPI refund for you?

If this is the case, then you'd seem to have a choice between accepting the residual >£5K or calling them out on a point of principle (admittedly potentially illegal activity involved) but not being able to reclaim that refund yourself now that the PPI reclaim deadline has passed - how strong are your ethics....?

hi i ticked a box with barclays / barcaycard ,,,,,, but they did barclays which i paid or ,,, then over six months later they contacted barclaycard ,, barclaycard would not deal with them as the original signature was out of date ,,,, i was asked by barclaycard or a new signature which after i had seen the comments on here regarding the company i refused permission ,,,,,the company sent me numerous requests for a signature which i never gave ,,,, barclaycard proceeded to deal with me direct ,,,,, i was awarded a sum....but after a year i got the invoice from the claim company  ,,, i refused to pay as the company had not dealt with barclaycard ,,,, then all of a sudden barclaycard got the new signature from them...not me  to release details of how much barclaycard paid me ,,, the signature was lifted from the original then re dated ,,,the banking ombudsmen are waiting or the official reply to me from the company as i made the complaint of signature fraud ..
