RPM Data Settlement Claim Form: Payments, Class, and Deadline

The RPM data settlement claim form is no longer available. The deadline to submit a claim in Hightower v. Receivables Performance Management, LLC was November 12, 2024, and the claims portal has closed. If you filed on time and received a settlement check, the more urgent task is cashing it: all outstanding checks become void after July 15, 2025.¹

If You Already Filed and Got Paid

Payments went out on May 16, 2025. Class members who chose PayPal or Venmo should have received funds electronically. Anyone who selected a physical check needs to deposit or cash it before July 15, 2025. After that date, uncashed checks are void and the money is forfeited.¹

Lost or damaged your check? Contact Kroll Settlement Administration through the settlement website as soon as possible. Waiting past the void date means losing the payment entirely.

If you enrolled in credit monitoring as part of your claim, that benefit runs separately. The settlement provides three years of identity theft protection and credit monitoring through CyEx (with the Pango Group), covering all three credit bureaus, identity theft alerts, fraud resolution, restoration services, and insurance for certain identity theft costs.² Enrollment stays active for the full three years regardless of when your cash payment arrived.

What the Claim Form Offered

For context on what approved claimants should have received, the form allowed several categories of compensation.

Time Spent Responding to the Breach

Class members could claim $25 per hour for up to four hours, capped at $100, with no documentation beyond their own statement.²

Out-of-Pocket Losses

Reimbursement had no dollar cap but required documentation. Eligible expenses included costs tied to identity theft or fraud, fees for credit monitoring or identity protection purchased on or after April 8, 2021, charges to freeze or unfreeze credit reports, and miscellaneous costs like postage, copying, notary fees, and long-distance calls. Receipts, bank statements, or invoices had to accompany each expense.³

California Statutory Payment

California residents in the settlement class could claim an additional $50 under state privacy law, on top of other benefits.³

Residual Payment

If money remained in the $5.6 million fund after all approved claims and costs, every class member with an approved claim received a residual payment of up to $100. Leftover funds could also extend credit monitoring enrollees’ coverage by up to two additional years, for a total of five.³

Who Was in the Class

The class covered anyone who received a notification letter from RPM saying their personal information was or may have been compromised in the April 2021 data incident.² Each notice included a unique Class Member ID that was required to file. People who thought their data was involved but never received a notice could contact Kroll Settlement Administration to check their status.

If You Missed the Deadline

Class members who did nothing by November 12, 2024, received no payment but still released their legal claims against RPM over the April 2021 breach. That means you cannot now file a separate lawsuit against the company over this incident. The only way to have preserved an independent right to sue was to submit a timely exclusion request by that same November 12, 2024 deadline.¹

There is no late-claim process. If you believe you were a class member and never received notice, the settlement administrator is still the right contact point to confirm your status in the records, even though a new claim can no longer be filed.
