What you'll need to file

From our inspection of the official claim form:

  • Filing method Online or mail-in
  • Notice ID Optional — there is a no-notice path
  • Documentation Expense Reimbursement claims require proof such as receipts or other documentation not self-prepared by the claimant; self-prepared documents alone are insufficient but may support other documentation. No documentation …

How hard is this claim to file?

New River Electrical Corporation was hit by a cyberattack in April–May 2024 that exposed private information for roughly 9,845 people. Filing a claim is the only way to get anything — credit monitoring, expense reimbursement, or a cash payment. The total settlement fund is $425,000. Deadline: July 20, 2026. This claim form asks for 1 field and 2 documents.

What the form asks

  • Benefit selection: Credit Monitoring, Expense Reimbursement, or Alternative Cash Payment — Choose which benefit you want. You can select credit monitoring, expense reimbursement, or the alternative cash payment. (The claim form and the settlement website both explain each option.)

Documents you'll need

  • Notification received from New River Electrical Corporation about the data breach
  • Documentation of out-of-pocket expenses (if claiming expense reimbursement)

Watch out for

  • The $425,000 fund has to cover administration costs, attorneys' fees, and a potential service award before any class member benefits are paid out. The amount left for claimants will be less than $425,000.
  • The opt-out and objection deadlines were June 19, 2026. If you missed them, you're still in the class and can file a claim — you just can't exclude yourself or object anymore.
  • The Final Approval Hearing was scheduled for June 29, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Eastern. Check https://nrecdatasettlement.com/dates/ for the current status before filing.
  • Eligibility is based on NREC's own records. If NREC didn't have you in their system as affected, you won't qualify.
  • Skip the claim entirely and you get nothing — and you give up certain legal rights against NREC.

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.

Where to act

You'll need the Claim ID from your notice

The official claim form asks for the Claim ID (or Notice ID) the settlement mailed or emailed to the people it identified. Didn't get one? Here's how to get it:

  1. Check your email (including spam) and any mail from around when the settlement was announced — the Claim ID is usually printed right on the notice.
  2. Still can't find it? Contact the settlement administrator, tell them you believe you're a class member (for example, a customer or patient in the covered period), and ask them to look you up and send your Claim ID.
