What is the TCPA spam text class action lawsuit investigation about?

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) is a federal law that offers a variety of protections to consumers, including prohibiting companies from sending marketing texts to consumers who have opted out. The law also allows consumers to seek statutory damages for these violations.

These spam text lawsuits generally allege that:

• Companies sent promotional texts after consumers replied STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE or otherwise asked to opt out
• Businesses failed to honor opt-out requests or maintain proper internal do-not-contact procedures
• Each text sent after a valid opt-out request may constitute a separate TCPA violation, carrying statutory damages of $500 per violation and, potentially, up to $1,500 per violation if the Court finds the violation was willful

If a company ignored your opt-out request and kept texting you, you may be able to take action through a TCPA spam text lawsuit.

Your rights under the TCPA

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) is a federal law that gives consumers specific protections against unwanted marketing communications, including text messages.

If a company sends marketing texts, it must provide a way to opt out. Once you submit a valid opt-out request — such as replying STOP, END, CANCEL or UNSUBSCRIBE — the company must stop sending marketing text messages to your phone number.

Companies that continue sending marketing texts after a consumer opts out may be violating the TCPA. In some cases, consumers may be entitled to statutory damages for each unlawful text message.

Can I take legal action if a company kept texting me after I replied STOP?

Under the TCPA, companies that continue sending marketing texts after a consumer submits a valid opt-out request may be violating federal law. Each text sent after an opt-out request may constitute a separate TCPA violation.

If you are considering taking legal action for unwanted text messages, evidence can help support your potential legal claim. Screenshots of your opt-out reply, any confirmation message you received and the texts sent afterward may help attorneys evaluate your situation.
