    Part of the settlement requirements should be that Epic has to contact every account that is eligible to inform them of this.

    Otherwise, as with so many suits and class actions like this, most will never know they are entitled to compensation.

        It is closer to $7 per account, still not a massive amount but…

        If you don’t get it, someone must get the $245M.

        The law firm will happily accept it as admin fees instead.

    Their child made charges to a credit card without parental knowledge or consent between January 2017 to November 2018

    How can you prove that the purchase made by your child and not you?

      It world definately be hard to prove it. One would be purchases made while actively playing the game, and if you had an alibi by being at work or something as a parent, and the network/ip used to be purchase it doesnt match the network at work, at least the general area.

      Theyll probably find a way.

        Yeah that a good alibi if it was purchased early and you can prove that you’ve been in the office at that time. What happens if it happen in the evening, and a lot of people are from home so its not a strong argument. Uterine what they’ll do in this situation

          Hence one, my example doesnt cover all situations, and definately not my job to look for the cover of all situations.

            Didn’t exacted you to provide answers, as you said it’s not your job :) I was just wondering and engaged with a conversation
