Application to collect part of Meta's $725 million settlement is simple, requiring only a few minutes to fill out.
If you were a Facebook user between May 24, 2007, and December 22, 2022Your Facebook user nameHow long does it take to fill out the form?You can find it on Facebook's website by going to"Account" and then clicking on"Settings and Privacy." From there, click on"Settings," where you should see"Username."
However, if you had multiple accounts at the same time, you can't get a claim for those extra accounts. In other words, no double-counting, according to the claim administrator.First, file the claim under the name of the deceased person and fill out their details in the"Your Facebook Account" section of the claim form.
However, the lawyers involved in the case are likely to take a portion of the settlement as part of their fees. The claim website notes that they could be awarded up to 25% of the settlement — or $181.3 million. If they receive that much, the settlement will be reduced to $543.7 million for the Facebook users who ask for part of the claim.
Each claimant will receive that per point amount multiplied by the number of points they were assigned, meaning that people who have been on Facebook for shorter periods of time would likely get a lower settlement amount.The claims site notes that there is a final approval hearing for the settlement on September 7, when the court will decide whether to approve the deal and award attorneys' fees and other costs.
