The proposed settlement deal must still be authorized by a judge, but if it is, T-Mobile will have 10 days to deposit funds into the fund to cover the costs of alerting those who are qualified to file claims. The agreement includes “the approximately 76.6 million U.S. residents identified by T-Mobile whose information was stolen in the Data Breach,” with a few exceptions for some of the carrier’s workers and persons connected to the judges who presided over the case. In the interest of full transparency, this could very well mean that I’m eligible for reimbursement because I was a T-Mobile user at the time of the breach.
