Chase class action lawsuit

Chase Bank USA NA and JPMorgan Chase Bank NA have agreed to settle a class action lawsuit alleging they violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by making automated telephone calls and sending text messages to cell phones in connection with Chase credit card and bank accounts without the prior express consent of the people contacted. If you received an automated phone call from Chase, you may be entitled to payment from the Chase TCPA class action settlement.

According to the class action lawsuit, Chase violated the TCPA by using an automatic telephone dialing system and/or prerecorded voice to make calls or send texts without prior express consent between July 1, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2013. Some of the recipients of these automated calls or texts were allegedly not Chase customers and/or were not the intended recipients of the communications.

Chase denies any wrongdoing, but agreed to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit to avoid the expense and distraction of litigation. The Chase TCPA settlement was preliminarily approved in August.

Update: The deadline for this Chase TCPA class action settlement has been extended until Sept. 10 as an additional 7.1 million more Class Members are sent notifications. 

UPDATE 2: The court granted in-part and denied in-part this class action settlement on Mar. 2, 2016. There’s been an appeal filed which resolving may take some time. According to the settlement website, sometimes this process can take more than a year.

UPDATE 3: According to the settlement website, as of October 27, 2016, the appeals will be resolved.  Checks are expected to mail by the end of November 2016. Let Top Class Actions know when you receive a check in the comments section below or on our  Facebook page.
UPDATE 4: On Nov. 26, 2016, Top Class Actions viewers who submitted timely and valid claims for the Chase Bank class action settlementbegan receiving checksworth as much as $91.10. Congratulations to everyone who got PAID! UPDATE 5: On June 23, 2017, Top Class Actions viewers who filed valid claims for the Chase Bank TCPA class action settlement started receiving
 a second disbursement check worth as much as $9.80.

Who’s Eligible

You are a Class Member of the Chase Bank TCPA settlement if you, between July 1, 2008 and Dec. 1, 2013, received collection calls or wrong-party automatic alerts. A wrong-party automatic alert refers to an automated call or text to a cell phone where the person who received the communication was not the intended recipient.

Potential Award

$20-$40. However, this payment range is just an estimate. The amount of compensation Class Members will actually receive depends on the total number of timely and valid claims submitted.

Cash payments are only available to Class Members who received collection calls from Chase or who received automatic alerts but were not the intended recipient of the communications.

If you only received automatic alerts relating to your own Chase credit card or bank account, you are not eligible for a cash payment from the Chase TCPA class action settlement. However, you can opt out or withdraw your consent to receive these alerts.

    what do I do if I got letter in mail for law suit but I moved since then an I didn’t forward my mail is there anyway for me to still get my check

    1. Top Class Actions says:

      Claims were paid in 2016. Any claimant that cashed their check received a 2nd check in 2017. It’s more than likely you will not be able to get a check sent. But, you can contact the settlement administrator with your questions: http://www.gehrichtcpasettlement.com/contact

    UPDATE 5: On June 23, 2017, Top Class Actions viewers who filed valid claims for the Chase Bank TCPA class action settlement started receiving a second disbursement check worth as much as $9.80.

  4. John Keller says:

    Be on the look-out for a SECOND check! Just received a check for $9.80, specifying it’s a supplemental check.

  5. scott says:

    I got a check today, but on the back is the address information that it was shipped to. Anyone else have an idea on this. Just sign the top and deposit (even with my address, return address on the backside?)

    1. Top Class Actions says:

      You can always check with your bank if you have questions about endorsing the check. You can contact the settlement administrator with any questions about the check as well.

  6. Alene M says:

    I filed before the March 2016 settlement deadline and I still have not received a check. I received a card in the mail about this JP Morgan lawsuit but I actually filed on the website that was listed on the card. When will I get paid?

    1. Top Class Actions says:

      The claim deadline was 9/10/2015. You would have needed to submit a claim prior to that date. You should contact the settlement administrator with any questions about your claim. FAQ #8 does have instructions for requesting a reissued check. You can also contact class counsel with questions or concerns. Good luck!

  7. Lisa says:

    I have not received anything as of yet. Must be because of the cold and snow – here in WI. We’re always last. HA!

  8. Glenn says:

    I received two checks – both were dishonored by my bank. along with a 20 fee to process dishonored check!! Huh?

    nobody answering phone – i assume it was my bank not a bad check

    1. Top Class Actions says:

      FAQ #8 on the settlement website has instructions on how to request a reissued check. Good luck!

      1. denise says:

        there is no back to the check, how do you deposit same?
