Sprint Solicitation Call Class Action Settlement

By Matt O’Donnell

 

Sprint
 
Sprint has proposed a settlement in a class action lawsuit that accuses the telecommunications giant of soliciting customers using an automatic phone dialing and announcing device. If the proposed Sprint solicitation call settlement is approved, certain Sprint customers may be able to receive up to $500 per incident.
 
The proposed Sprint telemarketing settlement will settle a class action lawsuit, entitled Sandra L. Palmer v. Sprint Solutions, Inc., that alleges Sprint made commercial telephone solicitation calls (i.e., telemarketing calls) to residents of Washington State using an automatic dialing and announcing device. The Sprint class action lawsuit also claims that solicitation calls were made to residents in other states after they requested not to receive solicitation calls from Sprint. 
 
The Sprint class action lawsuit says the telemarketing calls violate the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), Washington’s Automatic Dialing and Announcing Device statute, and Washington’s Consumer Protection Act. Sprint denies any wrongdoing, but has agreed to pay Class Members $5.5 million to resolve the litigation.
 
Class Members of the Sprint solicitation call class action settlement include current and former Sprint customers who, while a customer, at any time after July 23, 2005 through June 13, 2011:
 
(1) Lived in Washington State and received from Sprint directly or from its agents one or more commercial telephone solicitations that used an automatic dialing and announcing device; and/or
 
(2) Lived in Washington State and received from Sprint directly or from its agents one or more commercial telephone solicitations less than one year after advising Sprint or its agents that he or she did not wish to be called again by Sprint; and/or
 
(3) Lived in the United States and received from Sprint directly or from its agents one or more commercial telephone solicitations more than 30 days after advising Sprint or its agents that he or she did not wish to be called again by Sprint.
 
Class Members who submit a timely and valid claim form will receive a percentage share of the $5.5 million Sprint solicitation call settlement, based on the number of people who file claims. There’s no way to predict how much money Class Members will get until all claims are received, but each Class Member could receive the following:
 
– Category (1) Class Members could receive up to $500 per incident with a maximum of $2,000.
– Category (2) Class Members could receive up to $100 per incident with a maximum of $400.
– Category (3) Class Members could receive up to $500 per incident with a maximum of $2,000. 
– Class Members who fall into all three categories could receive up to a maximum amount not to exceed $4,400.
 
In order to receive any money from the Sprint solicitation call class action settlement, you must submit a claim form online at www.PalmerSolicitationCallSettlement.com or by mail postmarked by November 21, 2011
