Do you have a SiriusXM subscription? If not, the satellite radio company could owe you money.<\/p>\n

A $28 million settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit that claimed SiriusXM violated the rules of the National Do Not Call Registry. The lawsuit accused the broadcaster of calling people who had put their name on the registry and those who had asked SiriusXM to put them on its internal \u201cdo not call\u201d list.<\/p>\n

SiriusXM denied wrongdoing but agreed to a settlement that will allow people to receive a cash payment from a $28 million fund.<\/p>\n

You are eligible to receive a portion of that money if: <\/p>\n

\u2014 You received more than one solicitation phone call from SiriusXM in 12-month period between April 27, 2019, and Oct. 31, 2025, more than 31 days after registering your telephone number with the National Do-Not-Call Registry and were not a SiriusXM subscriber at the time of the first call or before the start of the second call.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Or you asked to be placed on SirisXM\u2019s international Do-Not-Call list and still received a solicitation phone call during the same time period on the landline, wireless, cell or mobile number on which you registered to not be called, regardless of whether or not you were a SiriusXM subscriber.<\/p>\n

To claim your piece of the settlement, visit sxmtcpasettlement.com<\/a> and file by March 21. If you\u2019re not sure if you qualify, you can contact the settlement administrator on the same website, by phone at 1-866-566-4210, or email Info@SXMTCPASettlement.com.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear how much money claimants will be eligible for, but up to one-third of the $28 million fund is expected to go to lawyers\u2019 fees, plus legal and administrative costs. The rest of the amount paid out will depend on the number of people who file a claim.<\/p>\n

A final approval hearing is scheduled for May 11. Any payments will be sent out after that date once approved and finalized.<\/p>\n

The National Do Not Call Registry allows any American to opt out of receiving telemarking calls for free at donotcall.gov<\/a>. Consumers who get unwanted sales calls after registering their number can report violations to the Federal Trade Commission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Do you have a SiriusXM subscription?
