Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Hill
Verizon has agreed to a $100 million settlement in a class action lawsuit over allegedly deceptive administrative charges. Current or former U.S. customers who paid these charges between January 1, 2016, and November 8, 2023, may be eligible for up to $100 each. To claim, affected customers must submit online using the ID and confirmation code from the settlement notice by April 15. The actual payout will depend on the number of approved claims, with a minimum expected payment of $15. Payments will be made via check or electronic transfer after the settlement's final approval. Verizon will continue to charge the fee but will update its customer agreement for better disclosure.
