Have You Participated in Class Action Settlements?

September 25, 2008

It seems there's a class action lawsuit happening at any given moment. Recent cases involving credit reporting and cosmetics have shown that settlement terms from class action suits are favorable to the consumer, but have you ever made a claim to participate?

I did the Debeers one but haven't heard anything back. Once we were included in a Blockbuster settlement and got a few rentals out of it. I'm always afraid they're going to stick some legal fees on me though to participate in all the ones that I could!!!!!

I wanted to do the one not too long ago with Debeers Diamonds but forgot to send the application in. :(

I got a nice little bit of change from a settlement with a major retailer I worked at a long time ago. The company was sued by some of my fellow folding-slaves/cashiers for having to spend a disproportionate amount of our paychecks on the company's own clothing. They had the most insane rules about how we could only wear the most current stuff to work (nothing that had just gone on sale, God forbid). I didn't mind so much as I was in the job for the clothes anyway. Still, a check a few months after quitting was nice!

i've received things in the mail that say that i'm eligible to file as part as one but i've never remembered to do so (at least i don't think). i guess there's part of me that wonders if it's a hoax, and although you can find information to give you peace of mind, i never get around to doing that.
