UPDATE: The AmeriSave Mortgage TCPA Class Action Settlement was granted final approval on November 25, 2020. Let Top Class Actions know when you receive a check in the comments section below or over on our Facebook page.
AmeriSave Mortgage customers may be able to benefit from a $6.25 million settlement resolving TCPA claims against the company.
The settlement benefits individuals who received calls or texts from AmeriSave between April 1, 2018 and Dec. 31, 2019. There are a reported 2.3 million people who are included in this settlement Class.
Plaintiff Terry Fabricant filed his AmeriSave Mortgage TCPA class action lawsuit in May, arguing that he and other consumers were hit with unsolicited phone calls and text messages from the mortgage company. According to Fabricant, these texts and calls violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act or TCPA.
The TCPA is a federal law which prohibits unsolicited telemarketing calls, texts and faxes. In order to send these communications, companies are required to get prior written consent. Additionally, businesses must comply with the national Do Not Call registry, a list that consumers can register their numbers with in order to stop receiving telemarketing communications.
Fabricant argued that AmeriSave Mortgage calls and texts were not only unsolicited, they were also sent to individuals, such as himself, who had registered their numbers on the national Do Not Call registry. Between these actions, Fabricant claims that he and other consumers were owed damages under TCPA – up to $1,500 per violation.
According to the AmeriSave Mortgage class action lawsuit, the company utilized an automatic telephone dialing system, or ATDS, to place a large number of calls or texts at once.
“Such systems have been held by numerous courts not to be an ATDS under the TCPA due to their high level of human intervention, lack of capacity to autodial, and manual click to dial functionality,” the AmeriSave Mortgage settlement motion said. “From a consumer protection standpoint, using such systems will reduce the volume of automated calls, and therefore protects privacy interests.”
After he filed his complaint, AmeriSave Mortgage reportedly admitted they called Fabricant at least once. However, AmeriSave Mortgage has not admitted any wrongdoing but has agreed to resolve the claims against them in a $6.25 million class action settlement. Similarly, the plaintiff notes that the settlement is a way to resolve the allegations despite being confident in his case.
“The settlement is appropriate because plaintiff recognizes the expense and amount of time required to continue to pursue the litigation, as well as the uncertainty, risk and difficulties of proof inherent in prosecuting such claims,” the AmeriSave Mortgage class action settlement motion states.
The AmeriSave Mortgage TCPA settlement will provide cash payments to Class Members who file a claim. Exact payment amounts will depend on the number of claims filed. No payment estimates are currently available.
In order to benefit from the AmeriSave Mortgage TCPA settlement, Class Members must file a valid claim form by Sept. 18, 2020. Class Members can also update their contact information through the settlement website.
Out of the settlement fund, $1.25 million will go towards attorneys’ fees. An additional $50,000 will cover court costs while the Class representative will receive a $5,000 service award. The settlement will also cover the costs of settlement administration.
The deadline for exclusion and objection is Sept. 30, 2020. The final approval hearing for the AmeriSave Mortgage class action settlement is scheduled for Nov. 20, 2020.

This is utterly ridiculous! I received 10.58 also. Just a complete waste of time and energy. Mean while the Attorney’s are living it up off of my injury! So not fair.
I have not received anything as of yet.
Hi my name is shannieces Thompson and I didn’t receive any check for the claim and my address is 366 Baggs Ave apt 1-A Pelham, ga 31779 and my number is +12293192668 and my claim number is SKC-3976137 and the phone number I had when the claim was file was 229-589-1244
Hi my name is Shannieces Thompson and I didn’t get my check or an email about it and my address is still the same and my Settlement claim ID SKC-3976137

In some settlements, unclaimed funds will be distributed evenly to those Class Members who filed claims. These payments often appear as a second check in the mail, and come as a happy surprise to Class Members who had previously received payment from the class action settlement. If a lot of people don’t cash their checks all that money will go back into a pot and be redistributed to us.
Read the settlement docs. The unclaimed money is going to a third party. Some kind of consumer protection non-profit. Class action lawsuits only really ever benefit the class attorney(s). I got 10.58 burning a hole in my pocket!
