Here’s what you need to know about the Verizon Class Action Lawsuit…
Do you qualify for the $100 million Verizon lawsuit settlement?
Calling all Verizon users! Check your mailbox and email inbox this week for a notification regarding a Class Action Lawsuit against Verizon as you may qualify for a portion of the settlement.
Verizon users will receive a notice with instructions on how to file a claim. Note that to be considered for a portion of the settlement, you must file by April 15th, 2024.
The lawsuit stems from onlineplaints that Verizon is charging an “administration charge” without properly disclosing the fees in the advertised monthly plan prices. Though Verizon denies any wrongdoing, they are prepared to pay up to remedy the situation.
How to apply for your Verizon lawsuit claim…
To be eligible for a payout, you must have signed up for a post-paid wireless account or data plan from January 1, 2016 to November 8, 2023. If that sounds like you, you’ll receive a notice via email or postal mail with a Notice ID and Confirmation Code so you can head over here to file your claim by April 15, 2024.
You’ll also need to specify whether you’d like to receive the money as a check or electronic payment. The payout is at least $15 per person but will vary depending on how long you’ve been a Verizon customer and the number of other customers filing claims.
