Intellicorp Records Inc. and Insurance Information Exchange (IIX) have agreed to pay $18.6 million to settle a class action lawsuit that accused the companies of violating the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). If either of these companies provided your criminal background report to an employer, you could get a cash payment of up to $2,000 from the class action settlement.
Who’s Eligible
Class Members of the Intellicorp background check settlement include all natural persons residing in the United States who were the subject of one or more consumer reports furnished to a third party by Intellicorp or IIX for employment purposes, which report(s) contained an Intellicorp Criminal SuperSearch result reflecting a record of criminal or traffic arrest or conviction or other criminal history between April 16, 2010 and Sept. 16, 2013.
Potential Award
$50-$2,000. Class Members who were the subject of a Criminal SuperSearch that contained a record of criminal or traffic arrest or conviction or other criminal history and who were not mailed a notification are eligible to receive a check for $50.
Class Members who believe their reports were inaccurate may submit a Claim Form to receive an additional payment of up to $2,000. The total amount depends on how many claims are submitted for the Intellicorp class action settlement.
Under the terms of the class action settlement, the defendants have also agreed to provide Class Members, on request with a report reflecting the criminal history information provided to employers and a copy of the information the defendants have in their files about the Class Member’s criminal history in addition to monetary compensation. They have also agreed to make substantial changes to their practices for furnishing criminal history information.

Case Name
Roe, et al. v. Intellicorp Records Inc., et al., Case No. 1:12-cv-02288-JG, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division.
Case Summary
The Intellicorp background check settlement resolves three separate class action lawsuits that accused the companies of furnishing criminal background reports to employers that included inaccurate information and/or failing to send required notices to individuals whose criminal history information was reported to an employer, in violation of the FCRA.
Intellicorp and IIX deny the allegations and contend they acted lawfully and in compliance with the FCRA at all times. However, the companies agreed to a class action settlement, which was preliminarily approved on Nov. 25, 2013.
Final Hearing
5/23/2014
UPDATE: A federal judge granted final approval to the Intellicorp background check class action settlement on June 5, 2014. The first round of payments could be going out at the end of the summer/early fall and the second round in early 2015, according to some reports.

just wondering if anyone else received a payment yet?
I just got my check $$$$$$$$$$$
Received a check for $2,017.00………. losers i bet you wish you had yours.
what was your last name if you don’t mind me asking because they are talking like that they would go by your last name which may I ask what was your so that I mite know when I mite get mine please and tank you
I would like to know how did you get your check when the statement says that they would start mailing them out on 6/7/2014 please can you answer that question for me please and thank you
did you get initial claim form as I did not? . I received 50 check today so its obvious erroneous info on my record . how can i file claim as deadline gone .. first im aware of as I thought was SCAM !!!
i’m a little confused about it. one communication i received said end of summer..another said early 2015…hope it’s the former..why don’t you inquire and see what answer you get.
so what is the true date on getting money sent not the 50 but the bigger amount
here is the latest on settlement…got this info from inquiry..there will be no letter telling you the money is on the way..it will just show up..distribution will not begin til early 2015…
are we going to be contacted or will the check just show up in the mail?
What I have read and understood is as follows according to the final case documents…the intial round of payments is just the $50 settlement , which is to be paid in 30 days. Then within 80 days the rest of the funds are released up to the $2,000 amount based on whhat is left over including any $50 checks that have not been cashed. So NO ONE would be getting more than $50 anytime soon. Can amyone tell me if my understanding of this is correct? I based this off of reading documents on intellicorpclassaction.com
I mailed all my info as well have the paper work received will they post a update on this case
The outcome is as follows, the final hearing is over and funds will be distributed as follows, last name begins with A to J payment mailed June 7th, k to t June 9th to 18 and u to z after
how do you know these dates the settlement money will be distributed
where will the checks be coming from what state so that I know when to be expecting mine because they have made it hard for me to get a job with my profession
