T-Mobile Class Settlement
Class Settlement lawsuit | FAQ
On August 16, 2021, T-Mobile announced that it had been the victim of a criminal cyberattack on its systems. The attacker compromised the personal information of approximately 76 million U.S. consumers. The specific information accessed for each person included some combination of names, addresses, zip codes, phone numbers, dates of birth, social security number/tax identification number, and/or other government identification number including driver’s license number, account establish date, name of authorized user, phone number, IMSI, MSISDN, PIN, and personal unlock code.
Numerous lawsuits were brought on behalf of consumers whose personal information was compromised as a result of the T-Mobile Data Breach. Judge Brian C. Wimes of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri is overseeing these lawsuits. These lawsuits are known as In re: T-Mobile Customer Data Security Breach Litigation, MDL No. 3019, Case No. 4:21-md-03019-BCW. T-Mobile denies any wrongdoing.
Who Is Eligible?
You are a Settlement Class Member if you are among the approximately 76 million U.S. residents identified by T-Mobile whose information was compromised in the T-Mobile Data Breach. Identified Class Members were notified of the proposed Settlement, so if you received a notice, you are a likely member of the Settlement Class.
How Much?
- You can make direct claims for out-of-pocket losses or lost time.
- Alternative Cash Payment: As an alternative to making a claim for reimbursement for Out-of-Pocket Losses and Lost Time, you may submit a claim for an Alternative Cash Payment of $25, or $100 if you resided in California on August 1, 2021. The amount of the Alternative Cash Payment may change depending on the number of total claims for cash payments.
Important Dates
- Final Hearing: 01/20/2023
- Claim Form Deadline 01/23/2023
Our Verdict
Sounds like anyone who was a T-Mobile prepaid or postpaid customer during August 2021 or prior is eligible for this. In any case, you should have gotten notice if you are one of the 76 million people who are eligible. Should be an easy $25/$100, but of course there’s the possibility those numbers get reduced if there are too many claims.

Today, 10/24/22, I got a postcard in the mail. It looks like junk mail. I almost threw it away. T-Mobile is not prominent on the card, so it looks like ‘we buy houses’ or ‘we just sold the house down the street for $$$..’, and very small print on front and back.
25 dollars is all there gonna pay out starting, hum wow so all your personal info bday social security numbers all that info and people gonna settle for a starting amount of 25 dollars get fucked T-Mobile that’s shit like people say they pay so much for your service and you fail when needed the most and then to turn around and start payments at 25dollars shows how much customer over the money’s means to you nill none notta….. Ok all done go on with your day, and have a nice one
Sue them yourself then. All the hard work is being done for you and the lawyers who fought for everyone is taking their cut off the top of the lump sum settlement.
I have been using T-Mobile for about 7 years and I received numerous text messages stating that my personal information has been compromised I’m still a T-Mobile user but I have not received any letter or anything letting me know what type of information was actually breached I’m kind of worried now that there’s a lawsuit of what information is out there of mine where do I file for my portion of the settlement
It’s happened twice and both times they have said what information was compromised. None of it was really anything to worry about. I. Spite of that, they had offered everyone free credit monitoring as compensation.
My husband & I have been with T-Mobile for years, & we never received notice. How do you file a claim?
Then you weren’t compromised.
I never received an email but was compromised per my monitoring systems.
You can request a unique ID from the link to file a claim.
My wife had informed me about the breach with T-Mobile and I’m not happy about our information just floating around out there we should have been able to rely on T-Mobile especially how much they charge for their service, how do I join the lawsuit? And receive my portion of the settlement?

My wif,e and I have been with Tmobile for sometime now how do we receive a portion of the lawsuit? What exactly do we need to do? And is there any other information about how they’re going to protect everybody else’s information? Thank you
I received a text message from T-mobile letting me know my information was compromised back in 2021, but didn’t receive a letter with a claim number. Where do I file a claim?
I’ve been with Tmobile over 20 years and have 4 lines and haven’t gotten a claim form
