Who's breaking the law?

I believe an ex-girlfriend of mine has managed to find my address by obtaining my details from someone who works for my mobile phone network. Now I know the employee could be prosecuted over this but what about the ex? Is there anything I can do her with over this (other than stalking)?

Damn right, nail the twat. As for her, don't know.
Ok thanks, that might be something if I can prove money changed hands. If it was just a favour though, can she still be prosecuted for anything? She's a sly individual and I wouldn't put it past her to think something like that up.
Data protection act ?
Is regulated by the Information Commisioner's Office. They have a complaint procedure, which you can look up and follow through online. Although they (in my experience) are very nice people, they are concerened with the way in which companies behave with regard to data protection and are more likely to advise a company on future procedure to keep 'em inline than anything else. In fact, I don't think they have any 'power' to 'punish' individuals or companies at all... http://www.ico.gov.uk/
