Top Class Actions viewers are reporting that they have received checks for up to $328.98 from the Mammoth Mountain Ski Area class action settlement over allegations that they received unwanted phone calls from the ski resort.

Lead plaintiff Paul Story alleged in his class action lawsuit that he and others received numerous unsolicited calls from Mammoth Mountain Ski Area between Jan. 1, 2013 and Dec. 31, 2014.

According to the class action lawsuit, Mammoth was advertising its season passes to Story and other Class Members even though they had not agreed to receive the telemarketing calls.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act, or TCPA, was enacted to protect consumers from harassment by telemarketers as well as prohibiting the use of auto dialers and other electronic advertising without permission. Violations carry steep fines for companies – from $500 to $1,500 per violation.

According to the Mammoth Mountain Ski Area class action lawsuit, “[the plaintiff’s] cellular-telephone number was entered into a database and that MAMMOTH subsequently used equipment capable of storing and/or producing telephone numbers, as well as capable of dialing such numbers, to make the above unsolicited, prerecorded- or artificial-voice telephone calls en masse to consumers within that database, including Plaintiff. Indeed, given the sheer volume of telephone calls made to the public…transmission was possible only through the use of such automated equipment.”

In November of last year, Mammoth Mountain agreed to settle the class action lawsuit and pay $3.75 million to a Class of consumers who received the unwanted telemarketing calls.

According to the Top Class Actions Facebook page, Class Members who filed valid claims for the Mammoth Mountain TCPA class action settlement began receiving checks for as much as $328.98 just recently. If you filed a valid claim for this settlement, keep your eye on your mailbox because checks are arriving.

Mammoth Mountain denies any wrongdoing, but says it wanted to avoid the expense and burden of further litigating the class action lawsuit when it agreed to the settlement.

Class Members included those who received prerecorded or artificial voice marketing calls on their landline or cell phone from the Mammoth Mountain Ski Area between Jan. 1, 2013 and Dec. 31, 2014.

The deadline to file a claim for the Mammoth Mountain Ski Area telemarketing class action settlement passed on March 20, 2018.
