The Warranty Group TCPA Class Action Lawsuit: Up to $500

If you received an automated call to your cell phone from The Warranty Group or American Residential Warranty between 3/7/2011 and 8/11/2015, you may be eligible for a payment of up to $500 from The Warranty Group Class Action Lawsuit. According to this lawsuit, The Warranty Group and its business partner, American Residential Warranty, made unsolicited calls with an automatic dialer to consumers’ cell phones and telephone numbers on the National Do Not Call Registry in order to promote certain home warranty products. In doing so, the two companies allegedly violated the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) because some consumers did not agree to receive these calls. The defendants deny any wrongdoing but have agreed to settle the claims in order to avoid ongoing litigation.

   • The Short Form requires you to state that you received an unauthorized call on your cell phone or received more than one call on your telephone number that was registered on the National Do Not Call Registry. The maximum payment for this form is $125.
   • The Long Form requires you to provide the same information as well as a copy of your wireless cell phone bill(s) showing receipt of these calls. You will also have to state that this information is true. The maximum payment for this form is up to $50 per call for up to 10 calls.

Bottom Line:

When you included your number in the National Do Not Call Registry, you expected NOT to receive calls from solicitors. The Warranty Group and American Residential Warranty may have ignored this request and placed a prerecorded call in order to promote certain home warranty products between 3/7/2011 and 8/11/2015. If this happened to you, you may be able to make a claim and get up to $500 cash from The Warranty Group TCPA Class Action Lawsuit. If you think you qualify for this class action lawsuit, make sure you file a claim by 12/17/2015 and then check out the entire list of Class Action Lawsuit Settlements from HMB!
