Data security padlock

8. AT&T Data Breach Settlement — Up to $7,500

Deadline: June 3, 2026

AT&T's massive data breach exposed the personal information of approximately 73 million current and former customers, including Social Security numbers, account numbers, and passcodes.

Toothpaste

9. Tom's of Maine Toothpaste Settlement — Up to $7

Deadline: July 6, 2026

A small but effortless payout. If you bought any Tom's of Maine toothpaste since November 2020, you can claim approximately $7 per household with no receipt required. The whole process takes about 30 seconds. For step-by-step instructions, see our Tom's of Maine settlement guide.

Beef products

10. Beef Price-Fixing Settlement — Up to $200

Deadline: June 30, 2026

If you live in one of 27 eligible states and purchased beef products between 2015 and 2021, you can claim up to $200 without proof of purchase. The settlement alleges that major beef producers conspired to fix prices. Payment is made via Venmo, so you will need a Venmo account to receive your payout. This is one of the highest-paying no-proof settlements currently available.

How to File Multiple Settlements Quickly

If you qualify for several settlements on this list, here is the most efficient approach:

  1. Start with the nearest deadlines. Sutter Health (Apr 28), AAA (Apr 29), and Amazon (Apr 30) are closing this week. File these first.
  2. Use an app to save time. Class Action Buddy saves your personal information so you only enter it once. Each additional claim takes under 2 minutes.
  3. Be accurate. Only claim products you actually purchased. Claims are signed under penalty of perjury.
  4. Keep your address current. Most payouts arrive as physical checks 2-6 months after the deadline. Make sure the address on your claim is up to date.

What Happens After You File?

After submitting your claim, the settlement administrator processes all claims once the deadline passes. Payouts typically arrive within 2 to 6 months. You can learn more about the full timeline in our guide on how long class action lawsuits take.
