Details: The Brooks Brothers settlement will resolve a class action lawsuit, entitled Stathopoulos v. Retail Brand Alliance, that alleges Retail Brand Alliance (d/b/a Brooks Brothers) violated the Song-Beverly Credit Card Act by asking customers for personal identification information during credit card transactions. Brooks Brothers denies any wrongdoing, but has agreed to a class action lawsuit settlement to avoid the hassle of ongoing litigation.

Class Members of the Brooks Brothers class action lawsuit settlement include all persons who purchased merchandise with a credit card at any Brooks Brothers retail store in California (including factory/outlet) and were asked to provide or did provide personal identification information such as their physical address, email address, zip code and/or telephone number between June 2, 2010 and June 18, 2012.

As part of the class action settlement agreement, Brooks Brothers has agreed to provide a Merchandise Certificate worth $25 off all merchandise purchases up to and including $200, or $50 off all merchandise purchases over $200, redeemable at any California Brooks Brothers store.

If you received a Brooks Brothers Settlement Notice postcard in the mail, you do not need to do anything further to receive your Merchandise Certificate; it will be mailed to the same address where you received the postcard. However, if you did not receive a postcard in the mail and are a Class Member, you must submit a Claim Form by October 16, 2012 to receive your Merchandise Certificate.
