If it does transpire that Phorm and BT (or Virgin) have ignored your decision to opt out ICO will do nothing at all.
ICO will be assured by BT (or Virgin) that it was a small scale issue (ie, only you were affected), nothing personal was disclosed (even though they processed your entire personal web traffic), and BT have received imaginary legal advice from the garden gnomes that says they are purer than driven snow.
ICO will accept that assurance, do no investigation, and your complaints will be dismissed.
You can't stay with a Phorming ISP. You have no regulatory protection.
