How to Complete and Submit the Rite Aid Data Settlement Claim Form

The Rite Aid data settlement claim form is available online at riteaiddatasettlement.com or on paper from the settlement administrator, and it asks you to pick one of two benefits: reimbursement of documented losses up to $10,000, or a flat cash payment with no proof required.¹ Before you spend time on it, know this: Rite Aid filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on May 5, 2025, and the court has stayed the entire case. No claims are being processed and no payments are going out while the stay is in place.²

Where the Settlement Stands Right Now

The $6.8 million settlement in Bianucci, et al., v. Rite Aid Corp. grew out of a June 2024 breach that exposed names, addresses, dates of birth, and driver’s license or other government-issued ID numbers of U.S. consumers.¹ After Rite Aid filed Chapter 11 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey (case 25-14861), the judge overseeing the class action stayed the case and ordered the parties to report on the bankruptcy’s status every ninety days.²

In practice, the Final Approval Hearing originally set for July 17, 2025 is postponed, and the settlement administrators have said they are still evaluating how the bankruptcy will affect the settlement. If you already submitted a claim, it stays on file. If you haven’t filed, the mechanics below still apply, but check the settlement website for current deadlines before you send anything.

Who Can File a Claim

The class covers U.S. residents whose personal information was compromised or potentially compromised in the breach Rite Aid discovered on or about June 6, 2024. The clearest sign you qualify is a breach notification from Rite Aid by mail or email.¹ Anyone who submitted a timely Request for Exclusion is out of the class and cannot file.

Choosing Your Benefit

The form asks you to pick one option, not both.

Documented Loss Payment (Up to $10,000)

If the breach cost you money, you can claim reimbursement up to $10,000 with reasonable documentation: receipts, bank statements, invoices, or similar records tying each expense to the breach.¹ Covered costs include bank fees, fraud alert costs, postage, and long-distance phone charges from dealing with the fallout. Larger harms like identity theft, unreimbursed fraudulent charges, and time spent repairing credit also qualify, and police reports, credit monitoring alerts, and correspondence with financial institutions help support those amounts.

If you file a documented loss claim but your paperwork is incomplete and you don’t fix it after being notified, the administrator will convert your claim to the Cash Fund Payment rather than reject it.¹

Cash Fund Payment

No receipts, no documentation. The amount depends on how many valid claims come in and how much of the $6.8 million remains after documented loss claims are paid.¹ More claimants means a smaller per-person payment.

Filling Out the Form

Start with your full legal name and current mailing address. The address matters because that’s where a check or notice will go if your claim is approved.

Enter the claim identification number printed on your settlement notice. This number links you to the settlement database and speeds up verification. If you’ve lost the notice, contact the settlement administrator to request a replacement.

Then mark your benefit choice. For the Documented Loss Payment, describe each expense separately, note the date, and attach or upload the matching receipt or statement. Vague entries like “various costs related to the breach” without backup weaken the claim. For the Cash Fund Payment, you just indicate that choice and move on. No documents needed.¹

Submitting the Form

Online

Filing through riteaiddatasettlement.com is the fastest option. After you submit, a confirmation screen appears with the date and time. Save or print it. That page is your proof of filing.¹

By Mail

Send the completed paper form and copies of any supporting documents to:

Rite Aid Data Breach Settlement Administrator
c/o Kroll Settlement Administration LLC
PO Box 225391
New York, NY 10150-5391

Paper forms must be postmarked by the filing deadline. Kroll enters received forms into the system and sends a receipt confirming the claim is in the review queue.¹

Original Deadlines

These dates were set before the bankruptcy stay. They may change once the court lifts the stay or revises the schedule, so confirm current dates on the settlement website before you file.

Claim filing deadline: July 7, 2025 (online submissions, or postmarked for paper).¹
Opt-out deadline: June 6, 2025 (postmarked).
Objection deadline: June 6, 2025 (postmarked).
Final Approval Hearing: originally July 17, 2025, likely postponed by the bankruptcy stay.

If You’d Rather Opt Out or Object

Opting out means mailing a written Request for Exclusion to the settlement administrator, postmarked by June 6, 2025. You lose any right to money from this settlement, but you keep the right to sue Rite Aid individually.¹

Objecting is different. You stay in the class and can still get paid if the settlement is approved, but you tell the court in writing why you think the terms are unfair. Objections also had to be postmarked by June 6, 2025, and if you wanted to speak at the Final Approval Hearing you had to say so in the written objection.¹

After You File

Under the original timeline, the judge would decide at the Final Approval Hearing whether the settlement is fair, and if approved, the administrator would verify claims and send payments several months later. Claimants could choose a digital payment method or a physical check.¹

The bankruptcy filing has pushed that timeline into question. Settlement obligations become part of the bankruptcy estate, and a bankruptcy judge decides which creditors get paid and how much. The parties must update the court every ninety days.² If you’ve already filed, there’s nothing more to do now. Keep your claim confirmation and copies of any documents you submitted, and watch riteaiddatasettlement.com for updates.
