Details: The AT&T Wireless class action lawsuit settlement resolves claims that AT&T Wireless and certain related entities, including Santa Barbara Cellular Systems, Ltd. (“AWS”), engaged in shady billing practices that included billing subscribers for certain charges they did not authorize and/or did not understand. AT&T merged out of existence in 2004.
The AT&T Wireless billing settlement will resolve multiple class action lawsuits filed on behalf of California and Washington consumers. That means there are four separate Settlement Classes you may fall under. Here’s a breakdown of the Settlement Classes and the benefits you could be eligible under each class:
Stern I Settlement Class:
Includes those who subscribed to AT&T Wireless any time between December 20, 2001 and the Effective Date.
— Subscribers in this class who allege they were charged for the mMode Data Service without their authorization or didn’t understand the disclosures about mMode may receive a check for $8 per line charged.
— Subscribers who say they were charged for the EDID (ENH Discount International Dial) service without their authorization or didn’t understand disclosures about EDID may receive a check for $10per line charged.
Lozano Settlement Class:
Includes those who had a “One Rate-type” plan with AT&T Wireless any time between March 1, 1999 and the Effective Date.
— Subscribers who claim they did not understand that when they signed up for a One Rate-type plan that calls made during one billing period may be charged as if made in another billing period may get a check for $8 or a 250-minute AT&T Phone Card.
UCC Settlement Class:
Includes AT&T Wireless subscribers who paid, but were not previously refunded or credited Universal Connectivity Charges between March 1, 1999 and the Effective Date.
— Subscribers who say they were not aware when they subscribed that they would be charged a Universal Connectivity Charge may receive a check for $7.
If you believe you’re eligible for a class action settlement under any of these classes, you have until February 13, 2011 to file a valid claim form. Claim forms for the AT&T billing class action settlement can be found at www.awssettlement.com.
