Judge Approves Steve Madden Text Class Action Settlement
By Kimberly Mirando
A federal judge has approved the $10 million Steve Madden text class action settlement we’ve been reporting on since November. If you received a text promoting Steve Madden products between 2010 and 2012, you have until June 11, 2013 to file a claim to receive a cash payment of up to $150.
U.S. District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez granted final approval to the Steve Madden text settlement on May 7, which ends claims the shoe retailer violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) when it sent text messages promoting a holiday sale on footwear and other products.
Under the deal, Steve Madden will pay up to $150 cash to consumers who received one of these text messages from July 2010 until September 25, 2012 from the short codes 91919 or 623336.
You must submit a valid Claim Form by June 11, 2013 in order to receive a payment from the class action lawsuit settlement.
Approximately 19,000 claims have already been filed, according to Judge Gutierrez’s approval order. The actual amount of money you will receive from the class action settlement will depend on how many valid claims are filed.
Class Members with a valid claim can expect to see payments in the mail within the next 60-90 days.
Claim Forms and more information on your rights in the Steve Madden Text Class Action Lawsuit Settlement can be found at www.MaddenTextSettlement.net.
Detailed instructions on how to file a claim for the class action settlement can be found in our Open Class Action Lawsuits section.

How would you know if your phone # was rejected? I sent in all information on a timely basis and to this date have not rec’d a yea or nea. If anyone has any additional information that I can use to try and contact someone, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Has anyone noticed that they’re getting rejected on settlements? Just curious because I never received anything
Just called and was told that the checks went out in August and that 1/2 of the claims were rejected.
NO, CHECKS YET.
i don’t know how they get 60-90 days the court docs, states that jan-8-3013 to file objections , so i would say around march or april for CHECKS
Why wasnt I informed of this prior. I should be apart of this lawsuit settlement as well!!!! I see the date has past but for sure there should be another means for me to still file.
I’ve been calling up to yesterday still no checks
Called in on Friday & was told there still isn’t a timeline on when checks will be mailed… not sure where TCA is getting the 60-90 days…???
Wow seem to be unreal but not surprise.
