Claim Deadline

This settlement is no longer accepting claims.

What You Need to Do to Get Paid

Online: Visit telecomdatasettlement.com and click ‘Submit Claim’. You will need the Unique ID from your email or postcard notice.

Mail: Download the claim form from the documents page and mail it to the Settlement Administrator.

Standard “Tier” Cash Payments: No proof is required. You only need your Class Member ID to submit.

Documented Loss Payments: You must provide third-party documentation (e.g., bank statements, receipts, professional invoices) showing the loss was caused by the breach. Self-prepared notes (like handwritten statements) are not sufficient on their own.

Overlap Claims: If you are claiming specific losses for both the March and July breaches, you must submit unique documentation for each incident.

Settlement Payout

Estimated Payout Per Person

Payments depend on which breach affected you and if you have proof of loss. You can choose a flat ‘Tier’ payment or a ‘Documented Loss‘ payment.

  • AT&T 1 (March 2024): Up to $5,000 for documented losses. Alternatively, a cash payment (Tier 1 for SSN exposed is 5x higher than Tier 2).
  • AT&T 2 (July 2024): Up to $2,500 for documented losses. Alternatively, a Tier 3 cash payment.
Settlement Fund Breakdown
$177,000,000

The $177 million fund is split between two data incidents:

  • AT&T 1 Fund (March 2024 Breach): $149 million
  • AT&T 2 Fund (July 2024 Breach): $28 million

Background of the Lawsuit

Plaintiffs allege that AT&T failed to properly secure customer data, leading to two massive data breaches. The first (March 2024) exposed sensitive info like Social Security numbers. The second (July 2024) exposed call and text logs. AT&T denies wrongdoing but settled to avoid trial.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I eligible for this settlement?
You are eligible if you received a notice stating your data was compromised in the March 2024 or July 2024 AT&T data breaches. You can check your eligibility on the official website using your email or account info.
It varies. If you have proof of financial loss, you can get up to $5,000 (March breach) or $2,500 (July breach). If you do not have proof, you can select a flat cash payment, the amount of which will be determined after all claims are filed.
The deadline to file a claim was extended to December 18, 2025.
Yes. If you were affected by both the March 2024 and July 2024 breaches (the ‘Overlap Class’), you can file claims for both funds, potentially receiving up to $7,500 for documented losses.
Payments will be distributed after the Final Approval Hearing, which is scheduled for January 15, 2026. Appeals could delay payment further.
