Woodbolt agreed to pay $3 million as part of a settlement to resolve a class action lawsuit claiming it falsely advertised XTEND workout powders as having “0 calories.” Class members may claim up to $25 without proof of purchase.
The settlement benefits consumers who purchased certain XTEND products from Woodbolt or through third-party sellers, including Amazon, between July 28, 2014, and Jan. 24, 2023.
A full list of covered products is available on the settlement website.
Plaintiffs in the false advertising class action lawsuit accused Woodbolt of misleading customers by promising that XTEND products have “0 calories.” Despite these claims, supported by the Atwater calorie calculation method, testing of the products allegedly showed the products were not zero calories as promised.
XTEND workout powders offer hydration, recovery and protein benefits to active consumers. The products come in a number of flavors.
Woodbolt hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to a $3 million class action settlement to resolve these false advertising allegations.
Under the terms of the settlement, class members can receive $0.50 per purchased package.
Class members who have proof of purchase can claim up to 100 products, for a maximum payment of $50 per household. Those without proof of purchase can claim up to 50 products, for a maximum payment of $25 per household.
Actual payments may be higher or lower depending on the number of claims filed with the settlement.
Woodbolt agreed to modify its XTEND labeling and website to better reflect the way it calculates calories in its products. This updated language will inform customers that different calorie calculation methods may have different results.
The deadline for exclusion and objection is April 24, 2023.
The final approval hearing for the settlement is scheduled for May 31, 2023.
To receive settlement benefits, class members must submit a valid claim form by April 24, 2023.

This is what I received in email today…tried contacting them at 412 391 2883 and she told me to call the number where you can’t talk to anyone or leave a message.. I did send a email last night and this is what I got back this morning…Thank you for contacting us regarding Daniel Metague v. Woodbolt Distribution, LLC. Your payment was flagged as invalid per our payment vendor, and therefore the claim submitted was deemed ineligible for payment.

I requested paypal when I filled out my claim and do have the paypal code they send before you submit your claim…it seems like checks and venmo claims were paid..only saw a couple of people got a paypal payment..we need to keep on this..
For those of you that received a Rejection email, be patient. I contacted the Law Firm and in turn they contacted the administrator at Kroll. I got an email that Kroll will be contacting. I’ll keep you posted on the result.
Just FYI, the administrator, Kroll is handing several Lawsuit distributions and those are also running late or No Payment……. I smell a Rat !!!! I’m Contacting Federal Trade Commision
I received a check in the mail for $128.75 yesterday. Thank you TCA :)
Has anyone recieved a paper check via postal mail?
Just sent an email to the Law Firm taht handled the Case
It has come to my attention that the Claims Administrator is rejecting claims due to no response received regarding the verification email that was sent in June to your email address on file. Failure to provide the requested information resulted in a rejected claim. Many of us never received the email.
I suspect that there is a Major Mixup in their process of the claims and Xtend is trying to save money on payouts.
Can your Law Firm investigate this matter. On top of this, Kroll’s Website is down so we cannot contact them directly.
I just received the same email: Thank you for contacting us regarding Daniel Metague v. Woodbolt Distribution, LLC.

I am contacting the Lawyers who handle this and the judge. Someone has sticky fingers.
I believe a lot of these need to be investigated. I ran into a similair problem. Good Luck. The lawyers never contacted me back.
This settlement administrator point blank lied and said they sent me out a email confirming my address or some King of lie. They never sent me a email out. The reason they said my claim was denied was because I didn’t respond back to an email that was NEVER sent out. I asked the class counsel lawyers to escalate this and investigate because I know for a fact they never sent me a email asking for anything! Something needs to be done about this! I want my money like everybody else! I brought plenty of these and I deserve my payment! TCP please point me in the direction of the special master, A supervisor, or the head director, CEO of this class action Please
