Contact
Mostly in the month of December 2015 I received these calls even after I asked them to put me on a no call list.
I did get texts messages on 334-327-5312 and 334-327-1991 and 334-327-1888
ADMIN – Hi Terrie,
Good to hear that you are part of the class. To file please click on the orange link provided on the settlement page and follow the instructions carefully.
Received a claim card and I filed my claim on April 11, 2016.
I filed an claim and did not receive anything
I filed my claim last year. Any idea when the payouts will take place?
ADMIN – Hi Jennifer,
This case was paid last year.
If we didnt recieve a payout, but filed a claim, how do we check this?
ADMIN – Hi Lakewa,
This was paid many months ago. The admin has closed their desk and there is nothing you can do to get monies.
Hi, I did not receive any payout even though I did fill out information to be in the settlement. I had received the card in the mail and did everything they asked. My information was there before the deadline. I have not received anything, my address did change. It was 13 Sesco Drive and now it is : 116 Ranalet Drive. Hampton, Va. 23664. I have been trying to get in contact with someone the settlement date was long ago. I would appreciate knowing what happened and why I did not receive my Payout. Cherella Neal
ADMIN – Hi Cherella,
You are escalating this too late.
I too filed a claim and no moneys were received, why are so many people that have filed claims never paid? Not good,
ADMIN – Hi Tracy,
Often in a moment of carelessness you end up throwing the check in the garbage can thinking it is garbage.
I am very careful with my mail. I did not receive anything from this settlement.
ADMIN – Hi Barb,
Nothing we can do about it. Sorry you missed out.
My claim number is 60063000601. I am still awaiting my award. Is there a way to see if it was mailed ? Sometimes our mail is lost.
ADMIN – Hi Tim,
I believe this was paid out a long time ago.
There seem to be a lot of people that have not received their award. This should be looked into. It does not seem right, that we filed our claims according to your instructions properly, and received our responses with our claim numbers, and you are saying ” too bad, so sad”.
Very unprofessional responses and lack of help on figuring out the problem.
ADMIN – Hi Barbara,
The best way to resolve issues like this is to contact the class action administrator within 30 days of distribution. In order to find out when the distribution takes place you can call administrators monthly or you can check out our Facebook page. It is entirely possible that your settlement was stolen in the mail which is outside the control of the admin.
I have not received mine as well. It can not be that everyone has had their settlement stolen
ADMIN – Hi Tywana,
Sadly the admin is no longer accepting escalations. In the future please check on our Facebook page frequently to make sure you are always in the loop.
I find it ridiculous how everybody is getting mean and nasty because they didn’t get a set on it you got text messages on your phone you didn’t get into an accident you didn’t get bodily damage you didn’t lose any money this is something free give me a break so you lost out who cares you didn’t lose any money I’ll be around this is money not had that you were going to get well it’s gone who cares give me a break some people asked if they are owed this money owed nothing give me a break it’s ridiculous sometimes you can’t get everything free in life
ADMIN – Hi Lisa,
It can get a little bit too crazy at times.
Can I ask the status of this suit? I filed and have not received any updates or settlement.
Thank you
Hilly
ADMIN – Hi Hilly,
This was paid up many months ago.
Hi all!! I have done a lot of filling for lawsuits and in some I win and on some I lose. What happens sometimes is that the checks are in a form of a small post card or a regular size check and if it’s the small post card it tends to get lost among all the mail that gets sorted out at the postal facilities. Which is beyond the administrators control. In this case I lost as I read they paid out last year.. oh well lets move on to the next. However you can either go on the websites or call the phone provided for updates. That’s what I do to keep on top of the claims.. Good Luck in future fillings and hope my info helped some..
I filed a claim after I received a post card in the mail instructing me to do so, but I never received any money.
ADMIN – Hi Polly,
Most likely your check was misplaced or stolen. Too much time has passed since this was paid and you no longer have recourse.
I have been carefully looking and did not received anything like !most of the people who commented before me let’s be real you never sent any checks out. Too many people said they never received a check. But I guess that is what happens when things are not right.
ADMIN – Hi Beverly,
Did you ever contact the class action administrator?
I never received anything
ADMIN – Hi Bernard,
Most likely your check was lost in the mail.
