AT&T U-Verse

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.

  2. Blessed 51 says:

    I am so disappointed because u can’t reach anyone to ask questions !! Although I was told my claim was valid I haven’t received any payment!! So does anyone have a update or any knowledge of the process ? I also did receive an W-9 form that I reading about !!

    1. Amanda white says:

      I think it’s safe to say no we are not receiving a check.if so we would have definetlt received it by now

  3. Amanda white says:

    Hello has anyone who filed thru topclass in va or near va received a check as of yet..I’ve only heard of about 3 people so far whom have claimed to receive a check..which is on facebook and here ..I’m guessing since it’s Dec,13 i won’t be receiving anything ?

    1. John Boeheim says:

      Nothing here in California…not looking good at all.
      Told me a had a VALID claim and that I would be receiving a PAYMENT.

      1. Tretre says:

        Nothing in wisconsin yet and I was told the same thing John so not looking good here either.

        1. Latoya says:

          How can I look to see if my claim was approved?

          1. Bea says:

            You’ll know if you receive a check or a W-9 form. I received my W-9 today.

      2. Praying Woman says:

        Nobody believed me I’m so sorry now every Settlement Administration will use the same tactic as they did !!

  4. Nancy P says:

    What a blessing to all who received their settlement, just intone for Christmas. Blessings to all & thank you Top Class Actions for keeping us consumers informed, a lot of time we have no clue of these lawsuits for products we consume or bought until we are notified thru your site. God Bless & Happy Holidays

  5. Tiffany says:

    SMH at the pointless bickering

  6. Emilie says:

    I received my check yesterday, 12/11/17 in the amount of $570.75. It was a very nice surprise.

    1. Pamela says:

      what city do you live in if you don’t mind me asking?

  7. One claimer says:

    I’m lead to believe this whole settlement is a scam.I filed my claim online and gotten confirmation.A month later when I called ‘Mr.Curtis’ said I had a Valid claim but because a lot of of companies were also trying to scam other claimants,it would be a hold on checks.Two weeks later I called again for him to tell me I wasn’t apart of it and my claim wasn’t valid.Today I received a w-9 form and was also told by him again today that my claim is valid and that perhaps it was a mishap! The bullshit just doesn’t add up

    1. Praying Woman says:

      I was told the same exact thing that my claim was valid until they found out I filed a claim on Top Class Action’s website then my claim suddenly became not valid !!

      1. Regina says:

        Can everyone stop with the nonsense that because you filed thru here your claim got denied. I filed here and received a W-9 to send back. So whats the excuse now. There were something like only 1100 valid claims, amazing so many people on here who post on numerous other settlement pages also constantly think there entitled to something here.

        1. christopher w young says:

          Me too, any idea how long after returning the 1099 we will reciw be the payments?

          1. christopher w young says:

            I’m wondering the same thing.

      2. Amanda white says:

        Praying Woman Hi did you receive anything because i was told the exact same thing

        1. Praying Woman says:

          Amanda White I did not get a settlement check please read carefully !!

  8. bill lofer says:

    uh, Yea, when you call the recorded #, it says, If you filed thru top class actions, your claim is not valid. Now fake comments about being paid. yea, sure.

    1. Wendy says:

      U are so right, why only a couple people got a check, ? ijs

      1. ATT Pro says:

        You do realize there were only 1100 valid claims. So stop being mad because you tried to scam the system and failed.

        1. Wendy says:

          @att pro my claim was valid, was yours, or are you trying to scam the system and failed??

          1. ATT Pro says:

            I received a W9…I know I’m getting paid unlike you apparently.

        2. John says:

          Att pro I received a w-9 formed also but my wife didn’t, her claimed is valid though, but she still haven’t received anything. @wendy dont go back and forth with bullies if you know you have a valid claimed that’s all that matters, everyone else opinion don’t!

          1. Tiffany says:

            Hi John…..Did you try to file your W9 online thru the website. Keeps giving a database error to me. Waiting on replies from settlement admin and lawyer.

          2. John says:

            @Tiffany yes I filled online, I did it on the 9th of this month.

          3. Tiffany says:

            Least it worked for you…guess I’ll wait to see what they say then about the Claim# and PIN not being in the database. Grats on your money, hope its a lot =)

    2. ashton says:

      bill lofer,

      go to facebook,i sent a picture of check recvd today.

    3. Top Class Actions says:

      The voice mail does not state that class members that filed through TopClassActions.com will not get paid. It states that your claim MAY NOT be valid IF you read about the settlement on TopClassActions.com or another class action website because there was a specific class member list provided by AT&T. VALID CLAIMS filed through Top Class Actions should be paid. The message also states that checks under $600 were mailed on 12/5/17.

  9. em says:

    One person on fb said their neighbor got a check $250 att u verse hopefully we know more from people in mondays mail

    1. Enygma says:

      I saw the same post. Hopefully they will come on Monday for more people! Good Luck everyone! I have tried 3 times to contact the lawyers for this case via email and phone. No response on either. So I doubt I will be seeing anything.

    2. ashton says:
