      $725 million divided by number of claimants.

      I wish the website told you how many have filed so far so you could determine whether it’s a waste of time or not.

        kind of. from the research i did, the lawyer team can take up to 25% of that. so up to 180 million. and then there’s 8 plaintiffs that get 15,000 each. the leftover is divided amongst claimants. but i recommend anyone with a couple minutes (the submit claim form is very short) to fill out the claim. it shows bigger companies that people are actually doing their due diligence in keeping them in line. while i would love for very little people to claim so i can get a boatload, the point of these class actions, while compensation is good, is deterrence towards that company treating their consumers/customers like that again.
