The eligibility period runs from June 30, 2023, to April 2, 2026. Affected users can now submit claims for compensation.
How to File a Claim
Eligible customers must submit a claim form by June 30, 2026. They can file online or send forms by mail.
Each valid claim may receive up to $10. Final payments may change based on the number of claims submitted.

A court hearing will take place on July 15. The court will decide whether to approve the settlement.
Customers also have options to opt out or object before the deadline. Payments will begin after final approval.
