Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company has agreed to pay $1.4 million to settle a class action lawsuit over alleged illegal robocalls tied to pet insurance renewals and expirations. The settlement offers cash payments to eligible consumers who file a claim.
Nationwide denies wrongdoing, but the Court has allowed this settlement so affected consumers can move forward.
Why This Lawsuit Exists?
The lawsuit claims Nationwide sent prerecorded voice calls without proper consent, which may violate:
-
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)
