Johnson TCPA Settlement
- Claims Forms can be sent by mail or filed online
- Exclusion requests must be mailed by deadline
- Settlement Administrator contact info available
One thing that has been proven time and again is the fact that some people just do not like getting calls from an automatic dialing system. Some of the latest evidence supporting this statement is the $19,744,650 settlement resolving allegations that Navient Solutions, Inc (NSI) violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by calling consumers on their cellphones with an automatic dialing system. The allegations in the class action lawsuit go on to assert that these calls were placed to the wrong number and that the cell phone subscribers were not the people NSI was trying to reach. NSI has denied these allegations but has agreed to settle the matter as means to avoid the time, risk, and expense associated with continued litigation. Those who believe they qualify as an eligible Class Member can file a claim by going to the Johnson TCPA Settlement page and clicking the File Your Claim Online tab.
