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.

      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.
