Two data breaches that resulted in a class action lawsuit against AT&T are coming to a resolution, with the phone carrier agreeing to pay $177 million. AT&T agreed to pay the sum to avoid a trial.

The settlement was preliminarily approved by a Texas judge in August. Under the terms of the deal, affected customers may be able to claim up to $7,500. A settlement website from Kroll, the risk and financial advisory firm acting as the settlement administrator, is now available.
