The Walgreens settlement resolves allegations that the pharmacy chain violated the TCPA by placing prerecorded calls to customers to remind them that their prescriptions were due for refills.

While Walgreens argued that the calls were necessary medical alerts, the company agreed to the terms of the settlement in order to avoid the cost of further litigation.

Class Members of the Walgreens TCPA settlement included all individuals who received a robocall prescription reminder call to their cell phones on or before Apr. 3, 2015.
