Eligibility
Whether you can claim depends on the settlement's class definition: what you bought or used, where, and between which dates. A list of settlements, a news story or an ad cannot tell you that; the definition on the official website can.
Many people in a class never get a notice. If you fit the definition, you can usually still file by the claim deadline.
