Top Class Actions viewers are starting to receive checks in the mail from a class action settlement that accused Midland Credit Management Inc. of violating federal law by placing unwanted calls to consumers on their cell phones without obtaining permission first.
According to comments and posts on the Top Class Actions Facebook page,Class Members who filed valid claims for the Midland Credit Management class action settlement began receiving checks worth as much as $23.81 on May 30, 2017.
If you filed a claim for the MCM robocall settlement, keep checking your mailbox because your payout is on its way.
The class action settlement resolves allegations that Midland Funding, Midland Credit Management and Encore Capital Group violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by using an automatic telephone dialing system to call consumers in an effort to collect on an unpaid debt.
The plaintiffs claim they received numerous harassing phone calls by the creditors before filing this TCPA class action lawsuit.
Under the terms of the settlement, MCM agreed to pay $15 million to partially pay-off Class Members’ unpaid debts. Individuals with no debt received a cash payout.
Midland Credit Management denied the allegations but agreed to settle the class action to avoid further litigation.
Class Members included all U.S. residents “who were called on a cellular telephone by Defendants or their subsidiaries, affiliates or related companies (other than calls made by Asset Acceptance LLC, Atlantic Credit & Finance, Inc. or Propel Financial Services) in connection with the collection of an alleged debt using a dialer or by artificial or prerecorded voice message without prior express consent during the period from November 2, 2006 through August 31, 2014.”
The deadline to file a claim for the MCM class action settlement passed on April 12, 2016.

I never received a check or anything else about this lawsuit can you please let me know what’s going on
You need to contact class counsel with your questions. Counsel is listed in the TCA article and can be Googled for contact information: https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/closed-settlements/309177-midland-credit-management-tcpa-class-action-lawsuit-settlement/
Hice la reclamación me enviaron la tarjeta blanco con mi claim# ,me mude pero actualize la dirección pero he recibido ada ,como puedo averigua necesito saber x favor
I submitted a claim on February 1, 2016 and have not rec’d a check.
I filed a claim on 1/15/16; I never received any further information nor did I receive a check.
I made w claim Feb. 10.2016 i have not got no money. Can someone tell me how i can check. I moved also where can i change my address
I still haven’t received my check yet, who do I contact?
What if I got a check for almost $5,000? Is this legit? Why did I get so much more than others? I haven’t cashed the check yet.
Tommy: A $5,000 check would not be from this class action. If you filed a valid claim, you were supposed to get either a check for about $23, or a notice that a similar small amount of debt was forgiven. However many people got neither, and it is not clear why.
You can always contact the party that sent the check with your questions. If it is a class action settlement check, you can contact the settlement administrator or class counsel with your questions.
