Test title h1
Lowe v. T-Mobile USA, Inc., et al. is a proposed employment class action settlement in King County Superior Court. It concerns certain Washington job postings that allegedly omitted pay-range or benefits information required by state law. T-Mobile denies the allegations, and the court has not decided that the company violated the law.
Lowe v. T-Mobile settlement overview
The parties agreed to a maximum settlement fund of $2,137,500. The court granted preliminary approval on May 21, 2026 and authorized notice to potential class members. The settlement is not final: the court must still decide whether to approve it before payments can be issued.
This case is about job-posting disclosures, not a customer data breach. The MoneyPilot URL supplied for reference still contains an older data-breach-style slug, but the live page and the official administrator materials identify the current matter as Lowe v. T-Mobile and describe Washington employment applications.
Who may qualify
The official notice says T-Mobile records were used to identify potential settlement class members. A person may be included when all of the following are true:
They applied for a job opening in Washington with T-Mobile USA or a related defendant between January 1, 2023 and May 21, 2026.
The application was made through a T-Mobile website or an authorized third-party recruiting platform.
The posting allegedly did not disclose the wage scale or salary range and/or a general description of benefits and other compensation.
They did not sign an arbitration agreement with one or more of the defendants covered by the case.
Meeting a summary on this page does not establish eligibility. The settlement administrator applies the full class definition, verifies claims, resolves duplicates, and may request more information.
How much could the payment be?
The official class notice estimates an individual payment of $1,487.82. It also explains that people who submit timely, valid claims are eligible for an equal share of the net settlement fund. The displayed amount is therefore an estimate, not a guaranteed award.
The final amount can change after court-approved attorneys’ fees, expenses, administration costs, the class representative’s service award, invalid claims, and the total number of approved claims are accounted for. Settlement payments are described in the notice as non-wage damages reported on Form 1099.
What proof or information is needed?
The online form asks for the Claim ID and PIN printed in the personalized notice. Claim forms may also be sent by mail or email according to the official instructions. Every claim is subject to verification, and the administrator may ask for additional information.
Keep the personalized notice with its Claim ID and PIN.
Use the same contact details associated with the notice unless the administrator provides a correction process.
Review the certification before signing the claim form.
Save a copy or confirmation after submission.
Key settlement dates
September 8, 2026: deadline to submit a claim.
September 8, 2026: deadline to request exclusion from the settlement.
September 8, 2026: deadline to object to the settlement.
October 23, 2026 at 11:00 a.m.: scheduled final approval hearing.
These choices have different legal effects. Filing a claim, excluding yourself, objecting, and doing nothing are not interchangeable. Read the full notice before choosing an option.
How to submit a claim
Open the court-authorized settlement website and review the notice and frequently asked questions.
Locate the Claim ID and PIN from the notice sent to you.
Complete the online, email, or mailed claim form using the administrator’s instructions.
Submit or postmark the form by September 8, 2026 and keep your confirmation.
The official filing page is available on the Lowe v. T-Mobile settlement website. Filing through the official administrator does not require paying Rewarded or another listing site.
What the lawsuit allege
The plaintiff alleges that T-Mobile job postings for Washington positions violated RCW 49.58.110 by failing to disclose a wage scale or salary range and/or a general description of benefits and other compensation. The defendants deny liability and maintain that the claims lack merit.
A settlement resolves disputed claims without a trial on the merits. Preliminary approval allows notice and claim administration to move forward; it is not a finding that the allegations are true.
Frequently asked questions
Can I file if I did not receive a notice?
The online process is designed around a Claim ID and PIN from the personalized notice. If you believe you fit the class definition but did not receive one, contact the settlement administrator through the official site rather than inventing credentials or submitting duplicate forms.
Is the estimated $1,487.82 payment guaranteed?
No. The notice labels it as an estimate, and payment requires a timely, valid claim plus final approval of the settlement. The amount may change after the administrator completes verification and the court resolves requested deductions from the fund.
When would payments be sent?
The notice says approved claimants would receive checks after final approval and after any appeals or other reviews are complete. No exact distribution date is promised. Checks are expected to expire 120 days after issuance, so approved claimants should keep their mailing address current.
Where to verify the current terms
Use the official settlement website and the court-authorized notice as the controlling sources. The MoneyPilot case page is included as a secondary discovery source. If a deadline, hearing date, or administrator instruction changes, follow the official site.
