In 2014 the FTC sued AT&T Mobility, LLC, for failing to adequately disclose to customers on unlimited data plans that if they used a certain amount of data in a billing cycle, AT&T would slow down – or throttle – their data speeds to the point that many everyday smartphone functions (for example, web browsing and video streaming) became nearly impossible. According to the complaint, despite its unequivocal promises of unlimited data, in 2011 AT&T began throttling data speeds for its “unlimited” customers who used a little as 2 gigabytes in a billing period.
Consumers do not need to submit a claim. The FTC says current AT&T customers will automatically receive a bill credit, while former customers will get a check for the amount owed.
@Sheriee If this is what you are referring to, your post needs to be moved to the Wireless Forum.

You need to contact the settlement administrator (usually a legal firm) about this.

No it’s in regards to a suit filed in 1988 involving workers who transfer from Maryland to other plant locations
