What is the claim deadline for the Red Cross ERISA Settlement?

This settlement is closed to new claims — the deadline was October 9, 2025. Once a claim deadline passes you generally forfeit your share, even if you qualified.

Is the Red Cross ERISA Settlement notice real, or a scam?

Analytics Consulting LLC is the settlement administrator for this case. Claims are filed at redcrosserisasettlement.com. Filing a class action claim is always free — no legitimate settlement charges you to claim, and no administrator will ask for payment, a gift card, or your full Social Security number by email or text. If a notice asks for any of those, it is not from the administrator. When in doubt, ignore the link you were sent and go to the official settlement website directly.

When will payments from the Red Cross ERISA Settlement be sent?

Class action payouts typically take 12 to 24 months after the claim deadline, and longer if the settlement is appealed. The final approval hearing for this case is set for October 7, 2025; no payments can be issued before a settlement receives final approval.
