Trader Joe's Shoppers Have Days Left to Claim Cash From $7.4 Million Settlement

Trader Joe's has settled its lawsuit regarding printed credit and debit card receipts, but shoppers only have a few remaining days to submit a claim form in order to get part of the $7.4 million settlement.

The claim form has a June 9 deadline.

The settlement comes after the popular grocery chain had some printed receipts that showed the first six and last four digits of a shopper's credit or debit card number. Because of that, they violated the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA). And it relates to receipts issued between March 5, 2019 and July 19, 2019.

According to the settlement website, Trade Joes has denied all the allegations and "vigorously denies any and all liability or wrongdoing whatsoever."

"Not all Trader Joe's stores printed receipts displaying the first six and last four digits of the card number, and in those stores that did, only a small minority of transactions involved such receipts," the settlement website states. "Trader Joe's insurer has nonetheless concluded that further litigation would be protracted and expensive, and has taken into account the uncertainty and risks inherent in this litigation, and has determined that it is desirable that the litigation be fully, completely, and finally settled in the manner and upon the terms set forth in the settlement."

The company added that there has been no reported identity theft based on the receipts printed.

Each claimant is estimated to receive $102.45, but the exact final payment will depend on how many individuals file a claim. In order to file a claim, it must be done by June 9 through either the settlement website or by calling 1-888-444-7415. Anyone eligible should have received an email or a notice in the mail regarding the settlement.

A fairness hearing is scheduled for August 10, at which the court will have the option to grant final approval for the settlement. Afterwards, payments will be issued to shoppers within 10 business days.
