Comcast Xfinity $117.5M Data Breach Class Action Settlement

Received notice that your data was exposed in the Comcast Xfinity (December 2023) data breach.

• U.S. or territory resident who received a Comcast breach notice around Dec 18, 2023
• Have the Class Member ID from that notice (needed even for the no-proof $50 payment)
• Documentation required only for the up-to-$10,000 out-of-pocket tier

A $117.5 million settlement was reached in Hasson v. Comcast Cable Communications, LLC, in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. It resolves claims tied to an October 2023 cybersecurity incident in which attackers accessed Comcast (Xfinity) customer data between October 16 and 19, 2023. Comcast disclosed the breach on December 18, 2023 and notified affected customers; roughly 36 million Xfinity customers were impacted. Comcast denies all wrongdoing and liability.

Who's excluded: Limited to U.S. (and territory) residents who received an individual Comcast breach notice around December 18, 2023. Expenses already reimbursed elsewhere don't qualify, and self-prepared documents alone aren't sufficient proof.

• Alternative cash — ~$50

  A direct cash payment estimated at $50, subject to pro rata adjustment. No proof of losses required, but you need the Class Member ID from your breach notice to verify identity.

• Out-of-pocket losses — up to $10,000

  Reimbursement for documented fraud/identity-theft costs, credit-freeze fees, credit monitoring bought after Oct 16 2023, postage/mileage, etc. Requires reasonable documentation (statements, receipts, invoices) plus a sworn attestation. You receive the greater of your documented losses or the $50 payment.

• Lost time — up to $150

  Up to 5 hours at $30/hour (in 15-minute increments) for time spent dealing with the breach, with a self-certified explanation. Out-of-pocket + lost time share a combined $10,000 cap.

• 3 years identity protection — everyone
