How to file this claim

No claim form is required — eligible class members submit an electronic payment request online to select their preferred payout method, or they may receive a paper check by default. If your mailing address has changed since January 14, 2021, you must also submit an address update to ensure delivery. This claim form asks for 2 fields.

  1. Confirm you are in one of the three eligible groups: FDCPA Class, California Class, or North Carolina Class, based on when PHH serviced your mortgage and when you received a Notice of Default.
  2. Visit the electronic payment portal at williamsphhsettlement.digitaldisbursements.com and submit a payment request to choose your preferred payout method (PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, ACH, or virtual Mastercard).
  3. If your mailing address has changed since January 14, 2021, submit an address update request online at williamsphhsettlement.com or by mail or email to the settlement administrator before payments are issued.
  4. If you do not submit a payment request, a paper check will be mailed to the address on file jointly payable to all borrowers on the loan.
  5. Contact the settlement administrator with any questions: PHH Settlement Administrator, PO Box 1468, Baton Rouge, LA 70821; email info@WilliamsPHHSettlement.com; phone 1-844-329-3048.

What the form asks

  • — Choose one of: PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, ACH, or virtual Mastercard — or take no action to receive a paper check (Your preferred payment account details (email, phone number, or bank account depending on the method chosen))
  • — Your current mailing address if it has changed since January 14, 2021 (Your current home address)

Watch out for

  • If you share the mortgage loan with a co-borrower, the default paper check is made payable jointly to all borrowers — coordinate with co-borrowers before choosing a payment method.
  • If your address has changed since January 14, 2021, failing to update it means a check could be sent to the wrong address.
  • No proof of receiving a Notice of Default appears to be required, but you must genuinely qualify under one of the three class definitions — check your mortgage servicer history and the Notice of Default dates carefully.
  • Exclusion and objection deadlines have already passed; your only current option is to submit a payment request or update your address.

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.
