Verizon Landline Third-Party Billing Class Action Settlement
By Kimberly Mirando
The Verizon third-party billing settlement will resolve a class action lawsuit, entitled Moore, et al. v. Verizon, et al., alleging that Verizon billed its landline customers for charges from third-party companies that were not authorized by the customer (a practice known as “cramming”), in violation of federal and state law.
Verizon denies any wrongdoing, but has agreed to settle the class action lawsuit to avoid ongoing litigation.
The Verizon third-party billing class action lawsuit settlement covers all Verizon landline customers nationwide (including individuals, businesses and local governmental entities) who were billed for third-party charges from April 27, 2005 through February 28, 2012.
Class Members will be able to recover 100% of all money they paid in unauthorized third-party charges during that period by submitting a “Full Payment Claim” or recover a refund of $40 by submitting a “Flat Payment Claim.” Both forms will be available at www.verizonthirdpartybillingsettlement.com and must be submitted by November 15, 2012. There is no dollar cap on the monetary recovery to be paid under the Settlement.
Some Settlement Class Members may have a claim for hundreds or thousands of dollars in refunds from the Verizon third-party billing class action settlement. That’s why it’s important that Verizon landline customers take advantage of one of the benefits available to them under the class action lawsuit settlement, which provides a free summary of all third-party charges they incurred. You can request this summery here or by calling the Settlement Administrator at (877) 772-6219.
Claim forms and more information on your rights in the Verizon Landline Third-Party Billing Class Action Lawsuit Settlement can be found at www.verizonthirdpartybillingsettlement.com. You can also find detailed instructions for how to file a claim in our Open Lawsuit Settlements section.

I have tried 2 times to get a free copy of my third party charges. I have done this on line and by telephone. It has been 2 months and I still have not received my free copy. Whats up with that? Also how do I make a 3rd attempt?
I WOULD LOVE TO GET MY MONEY. VERIZON HAS OVER CHARGE ME FOR YEARS. AND ALWAYS HAS A EXCUSE FOR IT. THEY OWE ME FOR HOUSE PHONE, CELL AND THE INTERNET. THEYWAY OVER PRICE ME I WANT EVERY BIT THATS OWE TO ME. I AM BROKE AND IN CREDIT BUREAU CAUSE OF THEM.
I tried submitting online but am not sure it was received. I thwn called the 1-877 # and was unable to complete saying the phone#. This has not been a customer friendly process.
Yes, I too would like my money back. If these big
companies were more honest up front none
of these class action suits would be necessary.

Yes I second that, good luck with receiving a refund before 2050.
Wow I thought I was the only one. Good luck everyone.
I have been with the company for more than 35 years, so if they owe me I want 100 percent back.
I always felt that i was being overcharged and always inquired about it and was always told no we bill a month in advance for something that i haven’t used yet
You should have gotten a post card in the mail with a pin number on it. There are directions on that post card to get a free summary of all charges. DO NOT throw that card away!! There is a PIN number on the bottom of it that you NEED to have to get your summary AND claim form!!
