Proof Required?
If you received a notice about the Urban One data incident, you may be entitled to compensation as part of a class action settlement. Urban One, a media and entertainment company, experienced a data breach that exposed the personal information of certain individuals — and those affected may now be eligible to file a claim for cash payments, reimbursement of out-of-pocket losses, or free credit monitoring. The settlement offers two main paths depending on your situation: a straightforward cash payment of up to $500 without needing to show any documentation, or a larger reimbursement of up to $10,000 if you can provide receipts or records showing actual losses tied to the breach. There's also three years of free credit monitoring available to help protect you going forward. You don't need to be a lawyer or have a complicated claim to participate. As long as you have your Unique ID and PIN from your settlement notice, filing is straightforward — and Class Action Buddy can walk you through the entire process.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You received a notice about the Urban One data incident with a Unique ID and PIN
  • Your personal information was compromised in the Urban One data breach
  • You are a U.S. resident who was affected by the incident
  • You have not previously opted out of this class action settlement

How Much Can You Get?

Settlement members have two options for compensation. If you don't have documentation of specific losses, you can claim a flat cash payment of up to $500 — no proof required. This is the simplest option for most people. If you experienced real, out-of-pocket costs as a result of the data breach — such as fraudulent charges, identity theft-related expenses, or time spent dealing with the fallout — you may be able to claim up to $10,000 by submitting supporting documentation like receipts, bank statements, or other records. All claimants are also eligible for three years of free credit monitoring services.
