What happened
Class period: The data incident occurred on October 11, 2021. Out-of-pocket expenses must have been incurred on or after October 11, 2021, through March 23, 2026, to be eligible for reimbursement.
- On October 11, 2021, alleged unauthorized access to files stored on systems belonging to Bayview Asset Management, LLC; Lakeview Loan Servicing, LLC; Pingora Loan Servicing, LLC; and Community Loan Servicing, LLC may have exposed customers' personal information. Four companies. One incident. Zero good timing.
- Two class action lawsuits followed: one in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, and one in California Superior Court for Sacramento County.
- Defendants deny all wrongdoing. The settlement is not an admission of liability -- it is a negotiated resolution to avoid the costs and uncertainty of trial.
- If you received a notice from any of the four companies about the incident, your personal information may have been affected and you may be entitled to compensation.
What you can get
