AT&T Class Action Settlement

Time is running out for millions of current and former AT&T customers impacted by the 2024 data breaches.

The deadline to file a claim in the $177 million AT&T data breach class action settlement is nearly here. Eligible consumers who don’t act before December 18, 2025 risk missing out on compensation entirely.

What Happened

AT&T experienced two major data breaches in March 2024 and July 2024, exposing sensitive customer information. Depending on the breach, compromised data may have included:

  • Social Security numbers

  • Names, addresses, and account details

  • Call and text metadata

While AT&T denies wrongdoing, the company agreed to the settlement to resolve nationwide claims.

Quick Eligibility Check (30 seconds)

You may qualify if any of the following apply:

  • You were an AT&T customer and your data was involved in the March 2024 breach

  • Your call or text records were affected in the July 2024 breach

  • You received a data breach notice from AT&T in 2024

Not sure? There’s a fast eligibility checker available that walks you through it step-by-step.

How Much Can You Get?

Compensation depends on which breach affected you and whether you have documentation:

  • Up to $5,000 for documented losses tied to the March 2024 breach

  • Up to $2,500 for documented losses tied to the July 2024 breach

  • Cash payments may also be available for eligible claimants without documentation

The settlement fund is split between both breaches, with the larger portion allocated to the March incident.

Best Way to File With Only 3 Days Left

If you haven’t filed yet, online submission is strongly recommended due to the tight deadline.

Fastest option:

  • File your claim online using the official settlement portal

  • Have your notice ID or account details ready if you received a notice

  • Upload documentation only if you’re claiming higher losses

Mail-in claims are risky this close to the deadline unless already postmarked.

Don’t Miss the Deadline

Once the deadline passes, late claims will not be accepted — even if you were clearly affected.

If you were part of either AT&T data breach, this is likely your only opportunity to recover money tied to the exposure of your personal information.

Check eligibility. File now. Worry about nothing later.
