Where the money is going
This is a claims-made settlement: Grayback pays valid claims directly. It separately pays notice and administration costs, attorneys' fees and costs, and the service award. All cash claims (out-of-pocket losses, lost time and the $65 alternative payment) share a $165,000 collective cap, and if valid claims exceed that amount they are reduced pro rata. Every Class Member can also enroll in three years of credit monitoring paid for by Grayback.
All amounts listed above are pending and subject to final court approval at the Final Approval Hearing. The Court may award less than the amounts requested. If valid claims for out-of-pocket losses, lost time, and alternative cash payments together exceed $165,000, those claims will be reduced pro rata.
Common questions
How much can I get from this settlement?
You can get back up to $5,000.00 for documented out-of-pocket losses, up to $125.00 for lost time (five hours at $25.00 per hour, counted toward the $5,000.00 cap), or instead a one-time Alternative Cash Payment of $65.00; all Class Members are also eligible for three years of credit monitoring.
Do I need proof to file a claim?
For out-of-pocket expenses, you must submit a valid claim form and send documentation, like bank statements or receipts, showing how much you spent or lost; self-prepared notes alone are not enough. For the Alternative Cash Payment, no documentation is required.
What is the deadline to file a claim?
Online claims must be submitted by December 28, 2026, and mailed Claim Forms must be postmarked no later than December 28, 2026.
What if I did not receive a notice or do not have my LoginID and PIN?
