Consumers who received telemarketing calls from online pharmacy PillPack may be eligible to receive up to $1,500 in a class action settlement. The company, owned by Amazon, has agreed to pay $6.5 million to resolve claims that it violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by making unsolicited telemarketing calls.
While PillPack denies any wrongdoing and asserts that it complied with the law, it has agreed to settle the lawsuit without admitting fault.
Who is Eligible?
Individuals who received a prerecorded telemarketing call from PillPack, followed by a transfer to one of its call centers, between March 13, 2018, and June 16, 2019, are eligible for compensation.
Depending on the number of claims filed, settlement payments could range from $600 to $1,500 per eligible claimant.
How to File a Claim
To claim a portion of the settlement, affected consumers must complete an official claim form. Those who received a claim ID should use it when submitting their claim, but it is not required to fill out the form.
To file:
- Provide the cell phone number you used between March 2018 and June 2019.
- Submit your claim either online or by printing the form and mailing it back to the court.
The final deadline for submitting claims is January 20, 2025.
