Wells Fargo Bank NA has agreed to settle a class action lawsuit accusing it of violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by contacting consumers’ cell phones without their prior express consent.
If you received a call or non-emergency text message from Wells Fargo in connection with a residential mortgage or home equity loan, you may be entitled to payment from this Wells Fargo class action settlement.
The proposed Wells Fargo settlement will resolve a class action lawsuit that alleges the bank violated the TCPA by using an automatic telephone dialing system and/or artificial or prerecorded voice to place calls or send non-emergency texts to cell phones in connection with residential mortgage and home equity loan accounts.
The TCPA class action lawsuit asserts Wells Fargo made the calls or texts without the prior express consent of the recipients in violation of the TCPA.
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act is a federal law that prohibits companies from placing phone calls and text messages using an automatic telephone dialing system, artificial or prerecorded voice to consumers who have not consented to receive the calls or texts.
Wells Fargo denies the allegations but agreed to settle the TCPA class action lawsuit to avoid the expense and uncertainty of trial. Wells Fargo has agreed to pay more than $16.3 million to resolve the litigation.
If the Wells Fargo TCPA settlement is approved, it will resolve all claims in the following class action lawsuits: Markos v. Wells Fargo Bank NA, Page v. Wells Fargo Bank NA and Davis v. Wells Fargo Bank NA.
If you would like to opt out of or object to the Wells Fargo TCPA class action settlement, you must do so no later than Nov. 22, 2016.
Who’s Eligible
You are a Class Member of the Wells Fargo TCPA settlement if you subscribed to a wireless or cellular service and you received a call or non-emergency text message from Wells Fargo that was made using an automatic telephone dialing system or prerecorded voice.
The Court has certified the following subclasses:

Has anyone received anything yet?
It’s 25.00 to 75.00 per violation!
ok, what is the verdict TCA…
How can you all say your receiving that much money when everything I’ve read says people will get 25.00 to 70.00 dollars? I filed a long time ago and haven’t heard one way or another as far as a settlement, but it does say those amounts I listed above.
Just a guess but perhaps its $25-$75 per call
The final hearing was January 17, given 30 days for appeals puts the effective date of this settlement was February 17. Settlements typically pay out on average 90-120 days after the effective date. Today is March 9, a mere 20 days after the effective date. It’s going to be a long wait if you’re already checking your mailboxes. Save yourselves some trouble and check back in May or June.
Who do we call so we can get in contact the find out when are we going to get our settlement money
No, I’m Emmanuel and I live in Georgia. I was told that I was going to receive $15,000.00 but have not yet receive anything.
Who did you have to contact to find out your information?
Made a claim before December 22 2016…but don’t know for sure markos verse wells Fargo actually received my claim and confirmation numbers. Is it possible to email me if everything was done correctly before deadline.? Thank you.
No, I’m in Miami, I’m expecting 20k, they say 90 days after approval, maybe in April?
How are you expecting that much?
Hey, has anyone received a payout yet?
No…I’m in California
