How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- The claim deadline is October 14, 2025 — late claims will not be paid.
- You must have had a registered BYUtv account with login credentials, not just visited the site without logging in.
- Both conditions must be true at the same time: a BYUtv account AND a Facebook account during the class period.
- Payment is not immediate — the notice states payment comes 45 days after final approval, which is not scheduled until the Final Approval Hearing on November 20, 2025.
- Use only the official website garciavideoprivacyclassaction.com — look-alike scam sites targeting class action filers are common.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
