AT A GLANCE:
Consumers who had a Verizon wireless plan and were charged an Administrative and Telco Recovery Charge or similar monthly administrative fee.
An investigation is examining whether Verizon's Administrative and Telco Recovery Charge may have increased customers' monthly bills beyond the advertised cost of their wireless plans.
Many consumers compare wireless plans based on the advertised monthly price. When additional company-imposed charges are added to the bill, customers may end up paying more than they expected. Illinois customers who paid these charges may have legal rights.
An investigation is underway involving Verizon's Administrative and Telco Recovery Charge, a fee that appears on many customers' monthly wireless bills.
Although this charge is presented separately from the advertised monthly plan price, it is not a government tax or mandatory government-imposed fee. Consumers may have paid more each month than the advertised cost of their wireless service because of this additional charge.
If you were charged this fee as part of your Verizon wireless bill, you may qualify to participate and could be entitled to compensation.
If you qualify, you can bring a claim through arbitration—a legal process similar to court but often faster and more streamlined. Our legal partners will handle the process on your behalf.
Correct. These are individual arbitration claims, not a class action or traditional lawsuit. It’s a common way to hold companies accountable when they’ve violated privacy or consumer protection laws.
There are no upfront costs to you. Legal fees are only collected if your case is won or settled. If there is no recovery, you will not be responsible for any fees or costs.
We work with a number of established and respected law firms across the United States, all of whom work to secure compensation for people like you who may have had their privacy rights violated. This campaign is sponsored by Bryson Harris Suciu & DeMay PLLC.
