Common questions
- Can I file a claim in the Collaku v. Pinnacle Bank Fraud Class Action case?
- No. This case has been filed and is still being litigated — there is no settlement, no claim form, and no payout. Many class actions are dismissed or never certified, so a case being filed does not mean anyone will be paid. If it settles and a claim process opens, that will be announced by a court-appointed settlement administrator.
- Where is the Collaku v. Pinnacle Bank Fraud Class Action case being heard?
- The case is before the District Court, N.D. Illinois, case number 1:26-cv-08649. Everything alleged in the complaint is an allegation, not a proven fact.

Kroger Rx Savings Club Settlement
Kroger allegedly failed to consider its Rx Savings Club or Health Savings Club prices when determining "usual and customary" (U&C) prices submitted for insurance claims. Plaintiffs contend Kroger should have used its lower Savings Club prices when calculating U&C prices, resulting in customers paying higher insurance copays. Kroger denies wrongdoing and maintains it correctly reported retail prices as U&C prices. The court has not decided the merits.
Payments calculated based on the amount a claimant paid for prescription drugs from Kroger where prescription insurance benefits were used.
