The claim deadline was June 15 — can I still file?

Your best bet is to contact the settlement administrator at info@SouthStateBankDataSettlement.com or (888) 232-0977 to ask if any options remain.
Do I get anything even if I missed the deadline?
Yes — the credit monitoring benefit is automatic for all class members who didn't opt out, and it doesn't require a claim form. Look for the unique activation code in the notice you received and watch the settlement website for instructions after the court grants final approval.
What information was exposed in this breach?
A third party accessed SouthState Bank's network on February 7, 2024. The data potentially involved names, dates of birth, addresses, phone numbers, financial account numbers, and Social Security numbers.
What if I never got a notice — am I still in the class?
The settlement class covers people who were sent notice by SouthState Bank about the breach. If you never received a notice but believe you were a customer at the time, contact the settlement administrator to check your status.
When will the settlement be finalized?
The Final Approval Hearing is scheduled for June 22, 2026 at 10:15 a.m. ET. Benefits, including credit monitoring activation, won't be available until after the court grants final approval.
Where to act
When you are ready, you open the official claim form yourself. SettleSignal does not file claims or determine eligibility.
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:
- 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.
- Still can't find it? Contact the settlement administrator (Simpluris), 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.
