Google’s $135 Million Android Data Settlement Now Taking Payment Selections

Notices urge eligible Android owners to choose a payment method to avoid missing out on a payout.

Overview

  • Administrators are emailing and mailing notices with a personal ID and code, and recipients are asked to confirm how they want to be paid at FederalCellularClassAction.com.
  • Eligibility covers U.S. individuals who used an Android device on a cellular data plan at any time since November 12, 2017, with an estimated class size of about 100 million people.
  • People included in the prior California case, Csupo v. Google, are excluded from this nationwide deal.
  • Those who do nothing may still get an electronic payment attempt through services like Zelle, PayPal, or Venmo, but failing to pick a method risks not receiving money.
  • The deadline to opt out or object is May 29, and a final approval hearing is set for June 23, after which payments will be issued subject to court approval and fees.
