Our Verdict
These settlements take some time to actually get your money, but they are worth doing if you’re eligible. It helps keeps companies honest and also puts a few dollars in your pocket as well. Despite this not requiring proof of purchase, please do not submit a claim unless you’re actually eligible otherwise real eligible claimants will just receive a smaller share of the settlement fund and it’s also just straight up fraud.
