You Could Get $7,500 From the AT&T Settlement—Here's Who's Eligible
You Could Get $7,500 From the AT&T Settlement—Here's Who's Eligible originally appeared on Parade. If you're in the U.S. and your personal info was swept up in either of AT&T's big data breaches in either March 2024 or July 2024 (or both), there's a possibility you could be entitled to something from a $177 million class action settlement. This means if you had an account, a phone line or even just used one that was affected, you might have a payout coming your way. It's never fun finding out your data's been exposed, but at least this could be a very small silver lining. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Here's the breakdown in terms of the timeline of events: In 2024, AT&T announced two separate data breaches—one in March, when AT&T-specific customer information was found on the dark web, and another in July, when certain data was stolen from a third-party cloud platform hosted by Snowflake, Inc. Both incidents sparked lawsuits across the country, which were later combined into larger cases in federal court. By March 2025, everyone involved agreed to settle both cases together, and in May, a formal complaint was filed. This $177 million settlement resolves all claims without AT&T admitting any fault or to Know If You're Entitled to Part of the Settlement If your personal info was part of either of AT&T's two big 2024 data breaches, you might be eligible for money from this settlement. The first breach (March 30, 2024) involved things like your name, address, phone number, email, date of birth, account info or Social Security number. If you're in this group, you could get up to $5,000 for documented losses, or a smaller cash payout—bigger if your Social Security number was exposed. The second breach (July 12, 2024) involved AT&T phone numbers, call interaction data and, for a few people, cell site ID numbers. If you're in this group, you could get up to $2,500 for documented losses, or a smaller Tier 3 cash payout. Now if you had the extremely bad fortune of being caught in both breaches, you can claim for both. However, you'll need separate proof of losses for each. The exact payout amounts depend on how many people file claims and the final settlement costs. What to Do Next First of all, you have to submit a claim form. This is the only way to receive what's called a Settlement Class Member Benefit from the settlement. There's also an option to exclude yourself by doing what's called "opting out of the class." This means you won't receive any Settlement Class Member Benefit from this Settlement. But, it is the only option that allows you to keep your right to bring any other lawsuit against AT&T relating to these data breaches. Opting out it a time sensitive situation; it needs to be mailed and postmarked on or before Oct. 17, 2025. Or, you could choose to do nothing, which means you won't receive any money out of the settlement, but you also aren't planning on filing your own lawsuit either. The choice is yours. If you think you are eligible for a settlement benefit, you have two options. You can either call the Kroll Settlement Administration LLC at (833) 890-4930 to get more information, or mail them the necessary documents (either submitting a claim or opting out) to: AT&T Data Incident Settlement, c/o Kroll Settlement Administration LLC, P.O. Box 5324, New York, NY Could Get $7,500 From the AT&T Settlement—Here's Who's Eligible first appeared on Parade on Aug 15, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 15, 2025, where it first appeared.
