What's The GTL Prepaid Settlement About?
A $67,000,000 settlement has been reached in which a class action lawsuit claims that GTL (Global Tel Link) improperly retained money that was deposited in prepaid
"AdvancePay" accounts after the account was inactive for 180 days or less.
How Do I Qualify?
All people who established and funded a prepaid account through GTL's
interactive-voice-response system and had a positive account balance that was reduced to
$0.00 due to account inactivity for 180 days or less on or after April 3, 2011, and through
and including October 6, 2021.
What Can I Get?
Eligible current and former GTL customers will receive 100% of the money GTL retained from
their accounts under the Inactivity Policy. Current GTL customers will receive a credit to
their account and former GTL customers need to file a valid claim to receive a refund.
How Do I File a Claim?
To receive a refund from the GTL prepaid settlement, you must have filled out and submitted a Claim Form by June 14, 2022.
If you are a Class Member who does not have an active AdvancePay Account and you do not
exclude yourself from the Settlement, you are eligible to receive a refund payment from the
Settlement Fund.
