Rack Room shoes

Rack Room Shoes has agreed to pay almost $26 million to resolve class action claims that they violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by sending unsolicited text messages.

The Rack Room class action settlement benefits consumers who enrolled in the Rack Room Rewards Program or Off Broadway Reward Program during a purchase who later received a text message from the program on or after April 2, 2014.

Plaintiff filed his Rack Room class action lawsuit in April 2018, claiming that he was sent several text messages by the company over the course of 2017. Plaintiff says he did not consent to receiving these text messages, meaning that they violated the TCPA.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) is a federal law that protects consumers from harassing telemarketing behaviors including robocalls, spam text messages, and junk faxes. If consumers do not give their explicit consent to receive these communications, businesses are not allowed to send them – even if a business relationship exists.

Plaintiff claims that, although he gave his cellular number to Rack Room when signing up for their rewards program, he did not consent to receiving text message promotions from the company.

Rack Room has not admitted to violating the TCPA but reached a deal with plaintiff in August 2019. Under the Rack Room class action settlement, the company will pay nearly $26 million to resolve the claims.

Eligible Class Members may be able to recover $5 in cash from the settlement along with a $10 voucher that will be loaded onto their reward program account.

Amounts may be subject to change based on the number of claims filed and the net settlement fund after administration costs, court expenses, attorneys’ fees, and service awards are deducted.

In order to benefit from the settlement, Class Members need to file a valid Claim Form by Jan. 31, 2020. The deadline for exclusion and objection is Dec. 17, 2019. The final approval hearing for the settlement is scheduled for Jan. 16, 2020.
