A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit accusing Trxade Group Inc. and Westminster Pharmaceuticals LLC of violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by sending fax advertisements without the prior express consent of the recipients.
If you did not have an established relationship with Trxade Group Inc. and Westminster Pharmacy but you received one or more faxed advertisements or solicitations between Jan. 1, 2012 and Nov. 4, 2016, you may be entitled to payment from the TCPA class action settlement.
According to the fax spam class action lawsuit, Trxade Group and Westminster Pharmacy sent faxed advertisements that did not contain the opt-out notice required by the TCPA.
In addition, plaintiff Family Medicine Pharmacy LLC asserts that the faxed advertisements were sent to recipients without their consent.
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act is a federal law that prevents solicitors from making robocalls, unsolicited text messages or sending unsolicited fax advertisements to consumers without their consent. The TCPA requires companies that send faxed advertisements to include an option to opt out of receiving future fax spam.
Companies found to be in violation of the TCPA may be liable for damages between $500 and $1,000 per violation.
The defendants deny any wrongdoing but agreed to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit to avoid the expense and uncertainty of ongoing litigation.
The Trxade Group TCPA settlement was preliminarily approved on Nov. 4, 2016.
If you would like to opt out of or object to the fax spam class action settlement, you must do so no later than Jan. 17, 2017.

Under the terms of the TCPA class action settlement, the Class Period is Jan. 1, 2012 through Nov. 4, 2016.
Potential Award
Up to $1,000. Checks will be distributed on a pro rata basis depending on the number of Class Members who submit timely and valid claims.

Spring 2017 Benefit Mailing Anticipated date the Claims Administrator will mail benefit checks if the Settlement receives final approval.
That is what it says but that was assuming it received final approval on February 21 but it has not yet received final approval.
The settlement received final approval in March, and there were no appeals filed. There were only 430 approved claims. Claims are supposed to be paid within 30 days of the Effective Date, which was around April 20, 2017. You should contact the settlement administrator with any questions about the status of your claim.
Thanks for the update TCA. I admit I was wrong. They have not posted the final approval order documents on the website which is why I thought it hadn’t been approved yet.
