Last chance to file claims in Trader Joe's settlement. How to get money
Trader Joe's shoppers who received certain receipts in spring 2019 may file claims by June 9 for an estimated $102.45 settlement payment.Summary
Trader Joe's shoppers may have only days left to file claims in a $7.4 million class-action settlement tied to a 2019 lawsuit alleging the company violated the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act by printing receipts with the first six and last four digits of some customers' credit or debit card numbers. Trader Joe's denied the allegations but agreed to settle to avoid further litigation, and no customers have reported identity theft based on the suit's claims. Eligible claimants are customers who made purchases between March 5, 2019, and July 19, 2019, at affected stores and received receipts showing those card digits. Each valid claimant is estimated to receive about $102.45, depending on the number of claims and remaining settlement funds after fees, with checks expected within 10 business days after final court approval if there are no appeals. Claims must be submitted through the settlement website by June 9, and a court hearing on final approval is scheduled for August.
