Sooo what feels like a long time ago someone posted here that Equifax data had been breached and we could file a claim and get money if we were affected.

I got an email today that the payment will be sent to me after October 14th.

Has anyone gotten their payment already? How much are they paying? I hope a lot 'cause I could really use the money right about now.

I haven't seen an email, but I checked the site and it says my claim was amended a week ago. Good info to know! I could use the money too.

I thought all I got out of it was some free credit report monitoring. Or maybe that was something else?

Found the email, apparently after signing up you had to verify in order to get a settlement, or else you just get free credit monitoring

I chose the monitoring services instead of the payment. That started a while ago.

I have an email from three years ago asking me to verify. Since I have the email starred, I presume I did verify it and saved it to have my claim number on file. The fact that my claim was just amended is a good thing, yes?

I did get some monitoring services for two years, but that was before the settlement contacted me. I thought that was something Equifax provided.

Finally got mine. Except I forgot my claim number so I have to find that in my files since it's not in my email.

Usually this was done right after signing up. I remember in the topic on b8 we talked about having to do this.

I got mine this morning, too. Looks legit. It says if I do nothing, they will send it by cheque, but I can have it sent via PayPal or prepaid debit. Probably going to do PayPal.

Quite nice - I need some money.
