serendipity1499 Posted August 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Check out the Class action Settlement on the Celebrity board about Robo calls.. Charvat v Carnival..This Robo caller, is based in the U.S. & promises you might win a cruise on either Carnival, Royal or Norwegian.. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2534481 The URL in the first post is missing a letter but in Post No. 4 they give the correct URL.. https://www.rmgtcpasettlement.com/Landing.aspx Many off shore companies get away with these Robo Calls while U.S. companies are getting caught & brought to court... Our Home phone number was on the list & I filed a claim today.. I have a claim number but don't expect to hear anything until sometime in 2018.. It might be worth your while to see if your phone number is on the list..:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwb101 Posted August 18, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Thanks for pointing this out: I saw something about it in the local paper, but didn't follow up. Turns out our home phone and my wife's mobile are on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted August 18, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Thank you for the links. I just checked -- neither our home phone or our cell phone numbers are on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare POA1 Posted August 18, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Most of the affected people are in Florida from what I read on a legal blog I follow. (I try to waste my time in diverse ways. ;) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alwaysfrantic Posted August 18, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I am included! Didn't receive a notice but put in my home number and it is in the data base. Is this the "You've won a free cruise to the Bahamas!" call I get ALL. THE. TIME? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfish Posted August 18, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Thanks for posting this. I checked and my number is included. I know I got at least 3 calls from them. I submitted a claim as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare whogo Posted August 18, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 18, 2017 My bet is the that there will be so many people receiving compensation that the payout will be much less than $300 per phone line. $15? $5? $0.53? There are more cell phones than people in the USA, half of households still have a landline. Robocalls might have been made to a majority of them, many of them may make a claim. With a maximum of $12.5 million in the payout kitty, If "only" 12 million legitimate claims are made, payouts will be about $1 each.

las313 Posted August 18, 2017 #9 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I checked the other day. Both my cell and home phone were on the list. I was able to file both since each had a different claim number. Be interesting to see what happens. Louise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ2002 Posted August 18, 2017 #10 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Not on the list, but thanks for sharing this info though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaysfrantic Posted August 18, 2017 #11 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Whogo is right that claims get diluted, but fortunately the company is still having to pay out. But sometimes it's not the 53 cents. I got a check last week for $100 as part of some preloaded computer software class action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare perfect match Posted August 19, 2017 #12 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Both of our cell numbers were on the list. We certainly got those calls, so we filed our claims. We will wait patiently while the process unfolds. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxThrusters Posted August 19, 2017 #13 Share Posted August 19, 2017 I checked..not eligible even though I received dozens of these calls. Must be because I am not in the USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare *Miss G* Posted August 19, 2017 #14 Share Posted August 19, 2017 OMG, none of our phones are on this list!!! (Two cells and a land line.) Now if they start showing up I will know who to blame. ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also safely bet that the settlement payout to the Plaintiffs' lawyers will be several million dollars!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igraf Posted August 19, 2017 #17 Share Posted August 19, 2017 You can have robocalls automatically blocked with the Nomorobo service. This only works for internet-based phone service, such as through your cable TV company. Nomorobo does not work with regular conventional landline telephone service. Nomorobo is a free service provided by my cable company. I just had to enable it. The phone will ring just once and then hang up when the user receives a robocall. igraf I am included! Didn't receive a notice but put in my home number and it is in the data base. Is this the "You've won a free cruise to the Bahamas!" call I get ALL. THE. TIME?

Happily@Sea Posted August 20, 2017 #18 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Well, I'm not included - I wonder who has been calling me and leaving voicemails [always starts part way in] or I don't pick-up because I don't recognize the number. I guess it wasn't them, at least that's one less group I've been getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRL_Joanie Posted August 21, 2017 #20 Share Posted August 21, 2017 OK, I am lost as to where in the world to look for my phone number.........I've gone over the pages and cannot find anything to direct me to such a list.......

Rare POA1 Posted August 21, 2017 #23 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Select the last option on the first page. It's something like, I don't have a claim but want to check. You'll then go to a second page where you can search on your phone number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serendipity1499 Posted August 21, 2017 Author #24 Share Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) OK, I am lost as to where in the world to look for my phone number.........I've gone over the pages and cannot find anything to direct me to such a list....... Can someone be an angel and give me a direct link to the listing of phone numbers? Joanie Joanie..There is no list which has your number..That is hidden by the court..But you can check your Number by following this procedure: A) Go back to my post No. 1 & click on the URL I posted B) On pg. 1 of the claim form it asks if you have a claim form..Check off either No. 3 or No. 4 C) go to bottom of page 1 & click on continue.. D) 1/2 way down on Page 2 of the form type in your phone number (note if you have more than one phone you should go on a new form for each Number)... E) click on I'm not a robot F) at bottom of pg 2 click on continue G) A notice will come up stating either your phone No. is not on the list or you have successfully filed a claim because your Phone No. is on the list.. H) If your Phone No. is on the list print up the form & eventually you should receive some $$..This will take about a year..
