A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit alleging AT&T used an automatic telephone dialing system and/or an artificial or prerecorded voice to contact consumers on their cell phones about AT&T’s U-verse service without first obtaining the prior express consent of the cell phone service subscriber.
If you received a communication from AT&T regarding a U-verse account for which you were not the accountholder, you may be entitled to benefits from the AT&T class action settlement.
Plaintiff Kison Patel initially filed the AT&T class action lawsuit in September 2015, accusing the company of using a predictive dialer and leaving a prerecorded voice message in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.
Patel says he received a call on his cell phone from AT&T, and when he answered the call, he heard a prerecorded message regarding an account. According to the AT&T class action lawsuit, Patel did not give AT&T permission to contact him on his cell phone about the account, and the call was allegedly not made for emergency purposes. He asserts the phone calls made by AT&T violated the TCPA.
Companies that make calls in violation of the TCPA may be subject to statutory penalties of $500 per violation or $1,500 per willful violation of the TCPA.
AT&T denies the allegations but agreed to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit to avoid the cost, risk and uncertainty associated with ongoing litigation. The company will pay nearly $2 million to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit.
The AT&T class action settlement was preliminarily approved on Oct. 11, 2016.
Who’s Eligible
Class Members of the AT&T settlement include: “All subscribers to those wireless telephone numbers identified as having lodged a complaint prior to November 18, 2015, regarding receiving a communication from AT&T regarding an AT&T U-Verse account for which they were not the accountholder (excluding subscribers of AT&T wireless and/or U-verse services).”
Potential Award
Up to $250.
The actual amount each Class Member receives will depend on the total number of claims filed. Each claimant will be entitled to a base payment of a pro rata share of the settlement fund, up to $250 per claimant. If there is money left over in the settlement fund, the remaining funds will be distributed on a pro rata basis based on the number of automated calls made to the cell phone number, up to $500 per call.

I filled out a claim to and never received a check I tried emailing and calling nothing works. Email not valid phone number is a behavioral center number this sucks
I submitted my claim form on 9/29/2020. As of this day 8/4/2021, I have heard nothing and received nothing. Can you please advise
still have not received a check.
Had a valid claim and still no check
Yes, I received a huge check..$4700. If your number wasn’t called then don’t expect a check. They know which numbers were dialed.
I filed a claim with a valid number and still haven’t received a check. Wth?!
Just because you filed a claim doesn’t mean you will receive a check. They have records of which numbers were dialed. I received a W9 because they said my check was more than $600. My check ended up being $4700. The biggest settlement check ever! I wasn’t expecting it to be that much.
I hadn’t gotten nothing and was eligible. I think it is so wrong just pick out a few people and send them all the money. I wrote them a letter and ask them to explained to me why I didn’t get any money.
Just got mine for 7948.00!!!
I got my check yesterday and it was for 7948.00!!!!!
I hadn’t gotten nothing I don’t understand why some people get a check when other waiting and hoping. I thinking the lawyer keeping them money and just sending a few for it can looked good. I should take a month to received a check if you lived in Hawaii.
You most likely aren’t getting a check because if your phone number wasn’t listed on the list of phone numbers called then you aren’t eligible. I already received my check for $250 over a month ago. My sister received a huge for over $4500 and received a W-9 to fill out before she got her check.
