A $7.4 million class action settlement has been reached that would resolve numerous Dial soap class action lawsuits.
The lawsuit seeks injunctive relief and damages. The lawsuit alleges that the Defendant violated certain laws in the marketing, advertising and sale of Dial Complete Foaming Liquid Hand Soap in the United States based on the use of the active ingredient triclosan and advertising claims including that Dial Complete “Kills 99.99% of Germs encountered in household settings” and the use of the phrase “Number 1 Doctor Recommended Antibacterial Liquid Hand Wash”, and the claim that it “Kills more germs than any other liquid hand soap”.
The Dial Corporation denies any and all wrongdoing of any kind whatsoever and has asserted various defenses that it believes is meritorious. The settlement is not an admission of wrongdoing. Instead, both parties agreed to the Dial soap class action settlement to avoid the cost and risk of ongoing litigation.
Consumers who purchased Dial Complete Liquid Hand Soap between Jan. 1, 2001 and Jan. 2, 2019 will receive $0.27 per package, up to 30 packages, without proof of purchase, for a total of $8.10, or more if they provide proof of additional purchases.
Class Members who want to object to or ask to be excluded from the Dial soap class action settlement have until March 13, 2019 to do so.
UPDATE: On May 10, 2019, the U.S. Department of Justice said the $7.4 million Dial Complete Soap class action settlement should be rejected because of hefty attorneys’ fees and little gain for Class Members.
UPDATE 2: On May 29, 2019, the $7.4 million Dial soap settlement was granted final approval despite objections from the government.
UPDATE 3: On Sept. 27, 2019, Top Class Actions viewers started receiving checks from the Dial Complete Soap class action settlement worth as much as $8.10. Congratulations to everyone who filed a valid claim and got PAID!
