Looking for a settlement you can still file?
This one is closed, but our 60-second eligibility quiz finds the ones that are still open.
Who Was Eligible?
Who the settlement covered:
- Globe Life Inc. or American Income Life Insurance Company sent you a letter saying your Personal Information may have been exposed in the October 2024 Data Incident — the class is defined by that notice
- The incident potentially involved current and former customers' names, addresses, emails, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, and health-related and health insurance policy information
- No documentation is needed for the lost-time payment or the credit monitoring
How Much Did It Pay?
From a cash pool of up to $3,400,000: documented losses reimburse up to $5,000 per member (Cash Payment A), and lost time pays $18 per hour for up to four hours — $72 — on a self-certification, no receipts (Cash Payment B). The two stack. Separately, every class member who does not opt out receives two years of Cyex Financial Shield Complete credit monitoring without filing anything, and the defendants pay administration costs and attorneys' fees outside the cash pool.How this claim was filed

How much does the Globe Life data breach settlement pay?
Up to $5,000 for documented losses plus up to $72 for lost time (four hours at $18, self-certified — no receipts), from a cash pool of up to $3.4 million. All class members who stay in also get two years of Cyex credit monitoring, even without filing a claim.
Who is in the Globe Life / American Income Life settlement?
Anyone who received a letter from Globe Life or American Income Life saying their personal information may have been exposed in the data incident of about October 2, 2024. The exposed data potentially included Social Security numbers and health insurance information; the companies deny wrongdoing.
Do I need to file a claim to get the credit monitoring?
No. Every settlement class member who does not opt out receives two years of Cyex Financial Shield Complete — the claim form is only for the cash payments. Doing nothing still forfeits the cash and releases your claims, so the lost-time payment is worth the few minutes.
