General Information
Distribution of Settlement payments began on October 20, 2023. If you elected to receive your payment via paper check, please allow time for delivery as postal delivery times may vary. Please continue to check the Settlement website for updates.
You may request a check up to two weeks prior to the disbursement date. If you would like to request a paper check, please email the Settlement Administrator.
I Elected to Receive an ACH Payment
Payment is sent directly to the bank account that you provided when you selected your payment method. While ACH payments generally post to an account the next business day, it can take up to five business days for payments to appear in your bank account.
If your ACH payment fails or is returned for any reason, your payment will be reissued as a paper check to the address in our records.
If your claim is approved for payment and you elected to receive an ACH payment, you should contact your own bank support line for questions regarding your payment. It can take up to five business days for payment to appear in your bank account.
Please contact the Settlement Administrator at [email protected]. Please note that you will be requested to provide the name of the bank that you used for this payment and the last four digits of the bank account number. Please do not provide your full account number. We will check our records to see if this matches your payment. If the bank name and last four digits match, we will escalate to our banking partner who will conduct an ACH trace on the payment. This trace typically takes 5-10 business days. While we conduct our research, please confirm that the money was not deposited into any other bank account(s) you may have.
