I received a response from the GCG group to my email today. They indicated that direct deposits will be completed this week. So, there is still hope:)
I’m replying to my own post to provide an update. Checked my account this morning and was happy to see a deposit of $73.25!
received a letter saying your receipt are not acceptable from payless shoe. We need receipt from Department store .Your claim was approved earlier is not valid.. I think Garden City Group is a major discriminator and scam out there. They choose who they want to allow settlement .If they have your name on black list and or address they will reject you everything you file. They have rejected me and my mother in another city for last 30 plus settlement in last 3 years we filed with dublin Ohio or seattle washington. Garden city Group is a major abuser of these settlements. STAY AWAY.
I received a pre notification in my checking account on Jan 28th about a refund from this lawsuit, but as of yet, I have not received any deposit from them. I have called the administrators several times, and all they say is wait until the end of the week to see if it shows up.It’s almost like they think the pre-notification was the deposit, and they tell me it takes a while for the deposit to show up. From all the posts, it seems like most everyone has gotten their checks or deposits, so I really don’t expect for the money to show up, unless they actually initiate a deposit, like I told them. I was just curious if anyone else out there has experienced the same problem with them, and if so, have they gotten anywhere with them trying to solve it.
I got the same pre-notification deposit but have not received anything as of yet.
I am glad that you replied Nicole because I was wondering if the same thing happened to you.I just got an email from the lawsuit administrators and they told me the deposits are in the process of being made, and it should be this week. We’ll see.
received my check for $73.25 in Zion, IL
Check $73.25 in Illinois on 02/06/2015.
I received my check on Friday for $73.25!
I contacted GCG and they told me that they don’t have a claim on file for me! GCG is a joke, if they have paid a prior settlement to you in the past they will flag your name in future settlements and exclude you. I even submitted a copy of my receipt for 1 pair.
I received an email a few days ago it reads like this “If you submitted an eligible claim, settlement payments were calculated pursuant to Section IV C.3 of the stipulation of the settlement on or before Feb 9th, 2014. If you requested direct deposit, it may take up to 2 weeks to receive your award. If you have any questions, please let us know or you may visit http://www.fitflopsettlement.com for more information.
got $73.25 in cali
well still havent received anything, did direst deposit! I hope they dont run out of refunds before I get mine- but I think they are giving only to those that have receipts!
I bought 4 pairs and now I just wait.
