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.

To my knowledge I didn’t do a w9 form and have a valid claim but will still receive my part at 28% tax withholding. So I think there is still hope for the individuals with a valid claim and claim number.
the informer,
please don’t give the people the wrong info if you’re not sure.my son recvd his check for 570.75 mailed on 12/5/2017.he did not recvd a w9.
What is a w-9 .? Like a tax form.?
If you didn’t get a w-9 then you don’t get a Check.?
So, did all of you who received a big check, get a W9 previously?
Just curious.
