Made around 5 purchases showing my cards last numbers
I have shopped at The Body Shop between February 12, 2011 and March 21, 2017 using my credit/debit card. I am not a member of the Love My BodyTM Loyalty Program.
ADMIN – Hi Deborah,
I believe you still qualify. File a claim if more than 5 digits of your credit card showed on your receipt.
I purchased several products from the body shop and never noticed that on my receipt, but I didn’t look.
Like the products
I buy from the Body Shop less than 2 miles from me. I never looked at my receipts except the price, never thought about the digits of my credit card being there? What should I do?
ADMIN – Hi Rae,
You should reach out to the admin and ask if your location was one where the receipts were printing too many digits.
Made 3 purchases and never noticed it until now
I DIDN’T THINK IT MATTERED TO HAVE 5 INSTEAD OF 4
Bought items but didn’t kept the receipts
ADMIN – Hi Gladys,
Make it a point to keep your receipts.
I bought Vitamin E oil and use it every night. Disappointing.
I have a claim no 126443, have not received any info.
thanks.
ADMIN – Hi Mara,
Have you reached out to the class action administrator?
I have not rec’d any further notices. What was the final outcome?
ADMIN – Hi CJ,
Here is the last updated from the class action administrator
UPDATE (1/23/18): Due to certain procedural issues that arose in the federal court, the Class Representative and Class Counsel determined that it was in the interest of the Settlement Class to dismiss the action pending in the United States District Court and to re-file the class action lawsuit in the Circuit Court of St. Clair County, Illinois.
The Circuit Court of St. Clair County granted approval of the Motion for Final Approval Settlement on December 20, 2017.
After the Court granted approval for the Motion for Final Approval, an appeal was filed. Settlement benefits cannot be distributed until the appeal is fully resolved. We anticipate that the appeals process will take at least several months.
