Flagstar Bank Data Breach Settlement
Court case: Angus, et al. v. Flagstar Bank, N.A.
If Flagstar Bank had your personal information and it was exposed in either of their 2021 data breaches, you need to file a claim by August 11, 2026 to get anything. The settlement fund is $31.5 million, and benefits include a cash payment, reimbursement for losses, and three years of free credit monitoring.
Official eligibility wordingU.S. residents whose personally identifying information was impacted by either or both of the two 2021 Flagstar Bank data breaches. Checked against the official settlement source by SettleSignal on June 15, 2026.
Key facts
- Who may qualify You're covered if you're a U.S. resident whose personal information was caught up in Flagstar Bank's January 2021 or December 2021 data breaches. About 2,187,170 people were affected. If you got a notice from Flagstar or the settlement administrator, that's the clearest sign you're in the class.
- Estimated payoutUp to a $31,500,000 payment cap. Benefits: reimbursement for documented monetary losses, a residual cash payment, a California statutory payment, and credit monitoring — subject to pro rata reduction if claims exceed the cap.
- Claim deadlineAugust 11, 2026 (closed)
- Proof requiredOptional
- What you needYou need your Settlement Claim ID (printed on your notice email or postcard) and your name and contact details. If you want reimbursement for documented losses, attach receipts or third-party records supporting what you lost. Self-written notes alone won't qualify, but they can help support other documents.

How hard is this claim to file?
What the form asks
- Settlement Claim ID — The Claim ID exactly as it appears on your notice. (On the postcard notice above your name and address, or at the top of the email notice above your name.)
- California Statutory Payment election (California residents only) — Check this box if you were a California resident at the time of the 2021 breaches. (The claim form.)
Documents you'll need
- Postcard Notice or Email Notice from Flagstar (contains Settlement Claim ID) (required)
- Third-party receipts, bank statements, invoices for documented monetary losses
Watch out for
- August 11, 2026 is a hard cutoff for both online filing and postmarked mail. Missing it means no benefits.
- All payouts can be scaled down if total claims push past the $31,500,000 fund cap.
- The residual cash payment is estimated at $60 but could drop to zero if documented loss claims and costs eat through the fund first.
- The California statutory payment is only for people who actually lived in California when the breaches happened in 2021.
- Handwritten receipts by themselves won't back up a monetary loss claim. You need third-party documentation.
- The Final Approval Hearing is set for October 1, 2026 at 9:30 a.m. ET. If the court doesn't approve the settlement, benefits could change.
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.
