Millions of current and former AT&T customers could receive compensation under a $177 million class-action settlement linked to two data breaches in 2024. While some eligible claimants could receive payments before the end of 2026, most are expected to get their money in early 2027, according to a report by The Sun .
The settlement follows a class-action lawsuit alleging that AT&T failed to implement adequate cybersecurity measures to protect customer information during two separate data breaches. The US District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, granted final approval to the settlement.
