Dynamic Accident Lawyers: Abercrombie, Hollister $10M TCPA Class Action Settlement

Abercrombie

A $10 million class action settlement was reached to resolve allegations that Abercrombie & Fitch Co. and its subsidiaries violated the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) by sending text messages to consumers’ mobile phones without their consent. If you were sent a text message by Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister, Gilly Hicks or abercrombie kids, you may qualify to benefit from this class action settlement.

The TCPA class action lawsuit was filed against Abercrombie in August 2014 by plaintiff Anamaria Chimeno-Buzzi alleging that for two months she was sent 18 unsolicited text messages to her cellphone for the purpose advertising upcoming sales at Abercrombie & Fitch and Hollister.

However, Chimeno-Buzzi claimed in her TCPA class action lawsuit that she never gave Abercrombie or Hollister consent to send text messages to her cell phone. In addition, she claims that there was no way for her to speak to a real person to opt out of the text messages.

This Abercrombie TCPA class action settlement is for anyone in the United States who received one or more text messages sent either by or on behalf of Abercrombie & Fitch Stores, Inc., Hollister Co., Abercrombie & Fitch Co., Gilly Hicks and/or abercrombie kids from Aug. 25, 2010 and Dec. through 2015.

The $10 million class action settlement will be divided among the Class Members on a pro rata basis after the attorneys’ fees, rewards for Class Representatives and other settlement costs are accounted for.

Abercrombie does not admit to any wrongdoing, but it has agreed to the terms of this settlement to avoid the cost and risk of trial. This Abercrombie TCPA class action settlement was granted preliminary approval on Dec. 18, 2015 by U.S. District Judge Marcia G. Cooke.
