AT&T Data Breach Settlement: How to Claim Your Share

In 2019, hackers stole addresses, birthdates, Social Security numbers, and other data belonging to millions of AT&T customers. A subsequent breach in 2022 exposed phone numbers, call logs, and cell site identification numbers. The settlement divides claimants into two classes: those affected by the 2019 breach and those affected by the 2022 breach. Customers impacted by both incidents must file two separate claims.

To file a claim, visit the Telecom Data Settlement website [https://www.telecomdatasettlement.com?ref=yanuki.com] and provide your Class Member ID, which should have been sent via email. If you did not receive a notification, contact the settlement administrator at 833-890-4930. You can also download claim forms to mail in from the website.

Potential payouts vary depending on whether you can document financial losses. Individuals with documented losses from the 2019 breach could receive up to $5,000, while those with losses from the 2022 breach could receive up to $2,500. Those without documented losses will receive a prorated share of the remaining settlement funds.

How to Prepare:

Who This Affects Most: Current and former AT&T customers who had accounts between 2019 and 2022 and whose personal information was exposed in the data breaches.

If you were an AT&T customer between 2019 and 2022, you may be eligible. Check your email for a notification from the settlement administrator or contact them directly.

The deadline to file a claim is November 18, 2025.

Potential payouts range from a prorated share of the settlement funds to up to $7,500 if you can document financial losses from both breaches.
