Millions of AT&T customers can now file claims in a $177 million legal settlement related to two data breaches, which could provide up to $7,500 in compensation per person.

The first data breach, announced in March 2024 , affected 73 million current and former AT&T account holders whose information — including birth dates and Social Security numbers — was found in a dataset on the dark web. The second data breach, announced in July 2024 , involved hackers unlawfully downloading AT&T data from a third-party cloud platform, exposing the records of calls and texts of "nearly all" of AT&T's cellular customers.

Multiple lawsuits were filed in state and federal courts across the country after both incidents, which were ultimately consolidated into two class-action cases.
