If you received a prerecorded voicemail message on your cellular telephone voice mail service from or on behalf of Penn Credit Corporation from April 30, 2015 through May 6, 2021, your legal rights could be affected and you could be eligible to receive an award. A federal court authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.
- Defendant Penn Credit Corporation (“Penn”) has agreed to pay $4,675,000 into a fund from which eligible persons or entities who file claims will receive cashawards.
- The settlement resolves a lawsuit involving allegations that Penn sent prerecorded voicemail messages to class members in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.
- Court-appointed lawyers for the class (“Class Counsel”) will ask the Court for up to thirty percent (30%) of the settlement fund as fees and to reimburse them for the out-of-pocket expenses they paid to investigate the facts, litigate the case, and negotiate the settlement.
- Penn denies all allegations of wrongdoing in the lawsuit. As part of the proposed settlement, Penn does not admit to any wrongdoing and continues to deny the allegations against it.
- The two sides disagree on whether Plaintiff and the class could have won at trial.
- Your legal rights are affected whether you act, or don’t act. Read this Notice carefully.
