Verizon Class Settlement
Class Settlement Link | File A Claim Here (note: you need a personal code to file)
Verizon customers claimed in a class action lawsuit that Verizon has charged its post-paid individual consumer wireless service account holders a monthly “Administrative Charge” or “Telco Recovery Charge” that was unfair and not adequately disclosed. Verizon has denied that the lawsuit has any merit. The customers and Verizon have reached a proposed settlement to resolve the lawsuit on a class action basis, as described below.
If the settlement is approved and becomes final, Verizon will pay $100 million into a Settlement Fund. If you file a claim by the deadline and are eligible for a payment, your payment may be up to $100 for your account. The final amount may be lower depending on how long you were a Verizon subscriber and how many Settlement Class Members file valid claims.
Also as part of this settlement, Verizon will amend its Customer Agreement to include revised Administrative Charge disclosures.

Our Verdict
There is a chance at up to $100 on this one. I always assume it’ll end up being much less, but we have seen a few times when readers ended up getting paid handsomely on similar deals, presumably due to low volume of claims.
