Who qualifies for the $100 million Verizon class action settlement? Find out the key details you need to be aware of.

 Verizon patrons may soon be eligible to receive a portion of a proposed $100 million class action settlement. The legal action, initiated in New Jersey, alleges that customers with certain monthly plans were subject to undisclosed administration fees in a manner deemed "deceptive and unfair."

The settlement specifically addresses charges incurred by customers between January 1, 2016, and November 8, 2023. Those affected by these practices have until spring to submit their claims.



Explore the details of this settlement and understand its implications for consumers. Additionally, discover if you qualify for compensation in similar class action lawsuits, such as Vizio's $3 million settlement over refresh rates.

In a class action lawsuit, individuals or a group file a legal claim on behalf of themselves and others who share similar grievances. Upon approval of the class action lawsuit, all members of the class receive compensation, except for those who choose to exclude themselves from the collective group.

Customers, past and present, who incurred administrative charges for wireless or data services between January 1, 2016, and November 8, 2023, are eligible for compensation. Each qualifying customer is entitled to receive up to $100, and the specific amount is determined by their duration of service.

To secure a settlement payment, eligible customers must submit a claim by April 15, 2024. Failure to file a claim by this date means no entitlement to a settlement payment. It is crucial to take proactive steps, as non-participation waives any right to sue Verizon regarding these matters, and individuals become legally bound by all court orders and judgments related to the lawsuit.

For those wishing to opt out of the lawsuit, a signed request for exclusion must be mailed to Verizon Administrative Charge Settlement Administrator, Attn: Exclusions, P.O. Box 58220, Philadelphia, PA 19102, by February 20, 2024.

Is Mother's Day for moms in the trenches? Woman shares why she takes the day for herself.

Image
 An Indiana mom is making waves online by revealing her unconventional approach to Mother's Day. Rather than celebrating her own mother or mother-in-law on the designated day, she chooses to honor them on separate occasions. Her reasoning? To carve out a space for herself to truly relish the holiday.   In a TikTok video garnering 2.1 million views, Emily Wehner explained her stance, acknowledging it might stir controversy. She emphasized that her priority lies in the intensive task of mothering she's currently engaged in.   Wehner's message is clear: Mother's Day should prioritize the mothers in the thick of parenting, not necessarily the grandmothers. This perspective stems from her own experience of feeling sidelined on her first Mother's Day, consumed by arranging grandparent visits and neglecting her own needs.   Thus, she instituted what she calls "Mother's Day Rules" to ensure she gets the chance to pamper herself and fully embrace

Russia is suspected of orchestrating a plot to assassinate a high-ranking European defense official.

According to NATO diplomats, Russia is believed to be behind a foiled plot to assassinate the head of Europe’s largest ammunition manufacturer due to his company's support for Ukraine. The alleged conspiracy targeted Armin Papperger, the chief executive of Rheinmetall, a Düsseldorf-based defense company, and is viewed as part of Russia's broader sabotage and hybrid attack campaign against European NATO states. This information was first reported by CNN. A person familiar with Papperger's security measures indicated that the level of protection around him was “at the highest level,” comparable to that of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. Although a spokesperson for Scholz declined to comment, Papperger told the Financial Times that Berlin had established a “great level of security around my person.”   Papperger could not confirm specific details of the plot but expressed belief in the accuracy of the CNN report, which stated that US intelligence uncovered the effort and a
