Top Class Actions viewers are beginning to receive checks in the mail from the American Eagle TCPA class action settlement worth as much as $242.46.
The American Eagle class action lawsuit alleged that customers were contacted by the clothing retailer through text with advertisements.
The plaintiffs said that American Eagle never obtained consumers permission to contact them via text – an alleged violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.
The American Eagle class action lawsuit was settled in 2017. Under the terms of the settlement, American Eagle agreed to pay $14.5 million to exit the class action lawsuit.
The retailer admitted no liability, but Class Members were expected to receive a payment between $142 to $285 and were not required to provide any proof of purchase to submit a claim.
If you submitted a claim in the American Eagle class action lawsuit and are wondering where your settlement check is, keep an eye on your mail box.
Class Members include those who received a text message sent by or on behalf of American Eagle Outfitters, who did not consent to American Eagle sending those advertisements, between April 8, 2010 and Jan. 24, 2017.
It was estimated that the Class would include more than 600,000 individuals based on American Eagle call records.
The deadline to submit a claim in the American Eagle TCPA class action settlement was May 24, 2017 and the final hearing was held Aug. 22, 2017.
Final approval in the settlement was granted on Sept. 11, 2017 and an appeal to the American Eagle TCPA settlement was lodged that October. The settlement was then affirmed by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in April of 2019, but was stayed on June 18, 2019, pending a petition to the United States Supreme Court.
