Bil Me Later

Bill Me Later Inc. has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit alleging it used an automatic dialing system to contact individuals by telephone without their consent, in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). If you received an automated or prerecorded telephone call made by or on behalf of Bill Me Later, you may be entitled to cash benefits from the class action settlement.

The TCPA prohibits companies from using automated telephone dialing systems or prerecorded voices to call consumers without their prior express consent. Violations of the TCPA can carry a $500 fine per phone call. The class action lawsuit alleged Bill Me Later and its agents violated the TCPA by making automated or prerecorded telephone calls to consumers who did not consent to receiving the phone calls.

Bill Me Later has not admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay $9.9 million to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit and avoid the cost, risk and delay of trial.
