Sekure Merchant Solutions has agreed to pay $6.25 million to consumers who received an unwanted telemarketing phone call from the payment processing company in violation of federal law.

If you were contacted on your cell phone by Sekure between July 26, 2013 and Feb. 1, 2018, you could get $30 from this class action settlement.

Plaintiff Michael Kaiser-Nyman filed the Sekure class action lawsuit over claims that the company placed unsolicited telemarketing calls to consumers in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

According to the Sekure TCPA class action settlement, Kaiser-Nyman’s phone number is listed on the National Do Not Call Registry yet he received “high-pressured sales pitch” phone calls from the defendant despite never giving his consent or ever doing business with the company.

The plaintiff says not only were the calls obnoxious and frustrating, but Class Members experienced actual harm by these unwanted telemarketing phone calls.

“Plaintiff and the other call recipients were harmed by these calls. They were temporarily deprived of legitimate use of their phones because the phone line was tied up, they were charged for the calls, and their privacy was improperly invaded,” the Sekure class action lawsuit states.

In addition to paying $6.25 million, Sekure has also agreed to comply with the TCPA as part of the class action settlement agreement.

Class Members who want to object to or be excluded from the Sekure Merchant Solutions class action settlement must do so by Nov. 30, 2018.

Who’s Eligible

Class Members include anyone who received a robocall on their cell phone from Sekure Merchant Solutions between July 26, 2013 and Feb. 1, 2018.

    I had a question. I received the $99.50 check; and it looks legitimate. My only question is to whom it is payable. It just says, “John.” As opposed to my full legal name, John A. Hockey. Do you think the bank will have any problem depositing this check?

  2. D. Hofstetter says:

    Followed the directions. I don’t even remember doing it but saw where I had went to the website in my history. And someone was right when they said 2 out of 3 must not have followed the instructions as I
