Mobile parking service RingGo, which is used by 4.3 million motorists across the UK, suffered a data breach in April 2017.
Customers who signed in saw that their personal information was not shown, but rather that of other users.
The passwords of an additional 1,400 people who were parking at the time of the event were disabled as a precaution, adding to the 600 people who were directly impacted.
The breach exposed names and phone numbers were accompanied by users’ vehicle information, including car model, colour, registration number and locations.
It also exposed some payment card data – the last four digits of users’ debit or credit cards.
Users who were impacted have been contacted by email, phone, and SMS by the corporation, which acknowledged that the incident was "completely unacceptable."
