PAYMENT & BENEFIT OPTIONS
There are two types of claims you can make: (1) an option for payment; and/or (2) an option for Credit Services. You can request both a Payment and Credit Services.
-
(1) Payments: Class Members who make a claim for Payment receive a payment of approximately $43. The exact amount you will receive depends on how many
Class Members participate.
-
(2) Credit Services: Class Members may also receive free Credit Services provided by Equifax for a period of two years, starting on timely activation by
the Class Member. Credit Services include credit monitoring, fraud alerts, and identity restoration services. These services are further detailed in the long Notice
available on this website.
Please ensure you provide a current, valid email address with your claim submission. If the email address you include with your Claim Form changes or becomes invalid
for any reason, it is your responsibility to provide accurate contact information to the Claims Administrator to receive a payment. When you receive the email notifying
you of your Settlement Payment, you will be provided with a number of digital payment options such as debit card, PayPal, or a credit on Amazon.com, to immediately
receive your Settlement Payment. At that time, you will also have the option to request that a paper check be mailed to you at the address provided in your Claim Form.
If you elect to receive Credit Services, when benefits are distributed the Claims Administrator will send you information on how to activate your credit monitoring
via email. The Claims Administrator will provide you with an activation code which you will use at the Equifax website to activate your Credit Services.
If you have any questions about the Claim Form, the payment and benefit options, or the requirements, please read the long Notice available on this website.
You may also contact the Claims Administrator with any questions at 1-877-777-9145.
