A pair of long-awaited class action settlement payments are finally going out to consumers who used TurboTax Online and Heel Homeopathic products. Both class action lawsuits were settled in mid-2013 leaving consumers wondering when they would receive their class action settlement payments.
Starting yesterday, viewers began reporting on TopClassActions.com’s Facebook page that they received checks. Payments from the TurboTax class action settlement are about $15 or less, while checks worth $45 were mailed to Class Members of the Heel Homeopathic class action settlement.
TurboTax Class Action Settlement Recap
The TurboTax settlement resolves a February 2013 class action lawsuit accusing Intuit Inc. of violating California and federal consumer protection laws by charging exorbitantly high fees for the “free” online edition of TurboTax if they chose to defer their TurboTax fees, opting instead to have the fees deducted from their tax refund. Intuit denied the allegations but agreed to a $6.55 million class action settlement to resolve the litigation.
A federal judge approved the Intuit TurboTax class action settlement in October 2013. Class Members included U.S. consumers who used Intuit’s TurboTax Online and utilized the Refund Processing Service from and including Jan. 12, 2008 through May 28, 2013.
The deadline to file a claim was Oct. 28, 2013.
Heel Class Action Settlement Recap
The Heel settlement resolves 2013 class action lawsuit alleging that Heel Inc. overstated the effectiveness of its homeopathic products. Heel denied the allegations but agreed to a $1 million class action settlement to resolve the allegations.
A California federal judge approved the Heel homeopathic class action settlement in June 2014, allowing consumers who purchased Heel homeopathic products between Dec. 21, 2008 and Feb. 5, 2014 to claim cash awards ranging from $25 to $150.
The deadline to file a claim was June 11, 2014.
