If you filed a claim for the Wells Fargo settlement, keep an eye on your mailbox because checks are on their way!

The class action settlement resolves allegations that Wells Fargo used an automatic telephone dialing system to place calls to consumers’ cell phones without obtaining their permission first. Federal law prohibits businesses from contacting consumers through robocalls or text spam unless they receive prior express consent.

Wells Fargo denied the allegations but agreed to pay $30.4 million to settle the class action and avoid the risk and cost of ongoing lititgation.

Class Members included “all users or subscribers to a wireless or cellular service within the United States who used or subscribed to a phone number to which Wells Fargo made or initiated one or more Calls during the Class Period (Apr. 21, 2011 – Dec. 19, 2015), in connection with overdrafts of deposit accounts, using any automated dialing technology or artificial or prerecorded voice technology, according to Wells Fargo’s available records.”

The deadline to file a claim for the Wells Fargo class action settlement passed on Jan. 16, 2017.
