Common questions
- How much does the Tri Counties Bank Data Breach Settlement pay?
- The total settlement fund is $1.2M. Actual amounts depend on how many valid claims are filed — most settlements divide a fixed fund pro rata, so a higher claim rate means a smaller individual check. An "up to" figure is a cap, not a guarantee.
- What is the claim deadline for the Tri Counties Bank Data Breach Settlement?
- This settlement is closed to new claims — the deadline was April 21, 2026. Once a claim deadline passes you generally forfeit your share, even if you qualified.
- Is the Tri Counties Bank Data Breach Settlement notice real, or a scam?
- Claims are filed at tricountiessettlement.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 Tri Counties Bank Data Breach Settlement be sent?
- Class action payouts typically take 12 to 24 months after the claim deadline, and longer if the settlement is appealed. Payments cannot be issued until the court grants final approval and any appeals are resolved.
