Over/Under $1 per claim
Looking forward to getting my $.02 cut of the settlement.
for payment options, which one should we choose – are the direct deposit options safe?
What is expected payout?
seven hundred and twenty five million dollars
Will probably land you a $1 check in the mail? Right?
$725 Million but split between 2.9 Billion people.
Take away lawyers fees, probably ends up being around $2.50
“If you lived in the US”
Yup, forgot that part, so ‘only’ split between 239 million people, maybe will get $3.
No, you forgot another part, only about 25% of US 239 million people will fill out this form and split between , Which will get about $15-20.
I am still waiting for the last Facebook class action settlement payout.
If I have 2 Facebook accounts (with different emails), can I make 2 claims?
“Each Settlement Class Member may only file one claim. If you have/had multiple Facebook accounts, please file for the account you had the longest”
in for 3, thanks Dan!
I don’t deal with this trash!
Yay more for us!
This will be a net win for FB as they will have validated their user list in the US for only $3 pp.
I’d be concerned about this ruining my shidduch. If people in my community found out I was on the internet, they’d never set me up. It’s not worth the risk.
You will be married before you see a cent, IY”H!
Am I the only one who can’t figure out how to find my user name. I go to Settings (wheel icon) but don’t see “Settings and Privacy”…Can anyone help a grandma out?
Haha this made me laugh out loud
No seriously. How do I find it?
This information can be found on the Facebook mobile application or the website by navigating to:
“Account” > “Settings and Privacy” > “General Account Settings” > “Username.”
I got a check from them for $30 is this a new lawsuit?
Yes
This explains Meta’s 4,000 employee layoff today
Only real winners….lawyers who will get $241.6MM.
Not bad

Do you know if this is a legit site? To me, it sounds like a scam
The point is not that you receive .02 cents or $2.50 rather it should be a collective message to FACEBOOK to treat people’s personal info with care – so if they have to pay out $725,000,000 that might do it (but probably not) – be that as it may people should fill out the claim form
I keep getting this error when I try to put in payment method:
System Currently Unavailable
We apologize for the inconvenience, but the system is currently unavailable. Please try again later. Thank you.
Can I make up a username? It does not seem to verify anything with FB
