Payouts on the Way

Top Class Actions readers can expect cash back from several class action settlements before the end of the year, so you can start 2021 on a positive note!

Lumber Liquidators is expected to pay out by the end of 2020 on its $36 million settlement over the durability of its flooring.

The plaintiffs in the Lumber Liquidators class action lawsuit claim that some of the company’s laminate flooring, made in China, contained excessive levels of formaldehyde.

Anyone who purchased Chinese-made laminate flooring from Lumber Liquidators between Jan. 1, 2009, and May 31, 2015, was entitled to benefit from the 2018 settlement.

The claim form deadline for this settlement was Oct. 20, 2018.

Another settlement that could get you some cash back by the end of the year is the 49ers Stadium Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) settlement.

The $24 million settlement, from earlier this year, resolved claims that Levi’s Stadium failed to meet accessibility requirements under the ADA.

Valid claim forms need to have been submitted by June 28, 2020.

Eligible Class Members will be receiving between $25 and $275 cash back, depending on which state they live in. 

The claim form deadline was May 7, 2020.

Another settlement that should pay out before the end of 2020 or early next year is the CVS Algal-900 DHA supplement class action settlement.

The deadline to file a claim form in this settlement was Dec. 12, 2019.

Check Your Mailbox!

In recent weeks, TCA readers have been getting lots of checks in the mail, some for hundreds of dollars.

At the end of October, readers reported receiving checks for $247.83 as part of a Western Union TCPA class action settlement.

The class action rebates have been sent to Class Members who received unsolicited texts from or on behalf of Western Union between March 12, 2010, and Nov. 10, 2015, in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

Class Members who filed a valid claim form by Nov. 25, 2018, were able to benefit from this settlement.

Earlier in October, TCA readers began receiving checks for as much as $262.28 as part of a $7 million Jumio biometric privacy class action settlement.

Plaintiffs in that class action lawsuit claimed Jumio stole consumer biometrics through the use of its NetVerify service, which reportedly scans consumer photos to verify their age or identity before they’re allowed to access a website.

The deadline to file a claim in the Jumio settlement was March 22, 2020.

But even larger checks are in the mail.

Readers have been receiving checks for as much as $500 in relation to a class action settlement over Rainbow Light vitamins.

Class Members in that case were entitled to receive cash back after the company agreed to settle allegations that its prenatal vitamins contained lead and other heavy metals.

According to the class action lawsuit, the manufacturers falsely advertised that the vitamins did not contain heavy metals; however, the plaintiffs alleged the vitamins actually contained 0.2 micrograms of lead in each dose.

Claim forms for this settlement were due by Aug. 3, 2020.
