Filing Deadline

Proof Required?
Google has agreed to pay $7.5 million to settle a class action lawsuit over how YouTube TV disclosed its auto-renewal subscription terms. The lawsuit alleged that Google did not clearly inform subscribers that their YouTube TV memberships would automatically renew — potentially leading people to be charged without fully understanding the ongoing billing terms. If you subscribed to YouTube TV in California between 2017 and 2021, you may be eligible to receive a payment from this settlement. Estimated payouts are around $92 per qualifying subscriber, which is a meaningful amount for simply signing up for a streaming service during that time period. The deadline to file a claim is August 30, 2026, so there's still time to check if you qualify and get your money. Class Action Buddy can walk you through the process quickly and easily.

Who Is Eligible?

You may be eligible to file a claim if you:

  • You subscribed to YouTube TV at any point between 2017 and 2021
  • You were a California resident at the time of your subscription
  • Your subscription was subject to auto-renewal billing by Google
  • You were not fully or clearly informed of the automatic renewal terms at the time of sign-up

How Much Can You Get?

Qualifying California subscribers could receive approximately $92 from the $7.5 million settlement fund. The exact amount each person receives may vary depending on how many valid claims are submitted — if fewer people file, individual payouts could be higher, and if more people file, they could be slightly lower. That said, $92 is the current estimated payout, which is a solid return for just a few minutes of your time. No purchase is required beyond your original YouTube TV subscription during the covered period. There is no minimum spend threshold mentioned in the settlement details.
