A $2.25 million settlement has been proposed in a class action lawsuit alleging that JPMorgan Chase violated federal law when it used “robocalling” as a part of a marketing scheme to contact consumers without their permission.
Lead plaintiffs, Tomeka Barrow and Anthony Diaz, alleged in their class action lawsuit that JPMorgan Chase violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by using a robocaller to contact hundreds of thousands of individuals to attempt to collect on mortgage and home equity line of credit accounts.
The plaintiffs say that they asked JPMorgan Chase to stop the calls, but to no avail. The class action lawsuit alleges that more than 200,000 individuals received robocalls from Chase.
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) was enacted to protect consumers from annoying and harassing calls from companies. The law prohibits companies from using automatic telephone dialing systems or prerecorded or artificial voices, i.e. “robocalls,” to contact individuals without permission.
Companies can be hit with steep fines under the TCPA of $500 per violation or up to $1,500 per violation if it is proven the calls were placed willfully.
JPMorgan Chase denies any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit to avoid the cost and uncertainty of ongoing litigation.
The company will pay cash awards to Class Members and has also agreed to disburse any unused settlement funds to two nonprofits, Prosperity Now and New Media Rights.
Class Members who would like to opt out of or object to the Chase robocalls class action settlement must do so no later than Aug. 13, 2018.
Who’s Eligible
Class Members include anyone who received calls from JPMorgan Chase, or “any affiliate or agent acting on its behalf, to their cellular telephone through the use of an automatic telephone dialing system or a prerecorded or artificial voice on between April 20, 2012, through March 16, 2018, regarding a mortgage or home equity line of credit account despite orally requesting, prior to the call, not to be called.”
Potential Award
$5 to $101 depending on how many Class Members submit claims.
Proof of Purchase
A W-9 form must be submitted along with the Claim Form.

CORRECTED MISPELLING;
If we don’t directly answer or block anonymous numbers and know many robocallers DON’T identify themselves…NOT even in voicemails…how can we make claims. Especially, if all we have are the robocall numbers we blocked?

I was able to login, but I had to wait nearly an hour before my ID and pin were accepted. The way it is set up it appears to be immediate, I suspect it may take a little while for the data to be updated. Frustrating – I know.
Yes, Bill I am having the same issue. I can’t login to completed the W9 form
