I do not have proof of purchase it’s been too long.
ADMIN – Hi Robert,
I no longer matters as the deadline has passed.
I never received mine anyway
I sent all of my info on this many months ago and still have t gotten a check. What is the delay or is this some sort of scam. It said I was qualified and all my info was sent?
ADMIN – Hi Jennifer,
I don’t think this settlement has been finalized.
What is going on with the settlement I gave them all the information they requested and still have not heard of anything. I need to know if this settlement will be taken care of or should I just throw away my confirmation form I received after submittal.
ADMIN – Hi Enrique,
Call the administrator because it appears distribution took place November of last year.
