Who Is Eligible?
You may be eligible to file a claim if you:
- You received a notice from E Benefit Solution about the December 2024 data incident
- Your personal information was exposed or potentially exposed as part of the E Benefit Solution data breach
- You are a current or former customer, employee, or individual whose data was held by E Benefit Solution at the time of the breach
- You are a U.S. resident who was included in the company's breach notification
How Much Can You Get?
There are two ways to get paid from this settlement. The simplest option is a flat $40 cash payment — and you don't need any documentation or proof to claim it. If you spent money dealing with the aftermath of the breach (think credit monitoring services you purchased, time spent resolving fraud, or other out-of-pocket costs), you can submit documentation and claim up to $5,000. All eligible claimants — regardless of which cash option they choose — can also enroll in two years of free credit monitoring as part of the settlement. This is a meaningful benefit given that data breaches can have long-lasting effects on your financial identity.How to File Your Claim
Filing your claim is quick and easy:
- Confirm you received a notice about the December 2024 E Benefit Solution data incident
- Gather your notice or any documentation of losses if you plan to claim more than the $40 flat payment
- Visit the official settlement website to access the claim form (details available through your notice or the settlement administrator)
- Choose your compensation option: $40 with no proof, or up to $5,000 with documented losses
- Opt in to the two years of free credit monitoring if you'd like identity protection
