How hard is this claim to file?

You must submit a claim to receive any benefit — there is no automatic payment. Class members who received a breach notification letter from Ward Transport & Logistics can choose between credit monitoring, a pro rata cash payment, or reimbursement of documented out-of-pocket losses. This claim form asks for 5 fields and 2 documents.

What the form asks

  • — The unique class member ID printed on your breach notification letter from Ward Transport & Logistics (Your notification letter mailed by Ward Transport & Logistics regarding the March 2024 data breach)
  • — The PIN printed on your breach notification letter alongside your class member ID (Your notification letter mailed by Ward Transport & Logistics regarding the March 2024 data breach)
  • — Select one or more: out-of-pocket loss reimbursement, credit monitoring, or pro rata cash payment (Your choice based on your situation — credit monitoring requires no proof; cash payment requires no proof; out-of-pocket losses require documentation)
  • — Receipts, bills, or statements proving your unreimbursed expenses related to fraud or identity theft caused by the breach (Your personal financial records, bank statements, attorney or accountant invoices, credit monitoring service receipts, or notary/postage/travel receipts)
  • — Your current mailing address (for paper check or credit monitoring activation codes) or email address (for activation codes sent digitally) (Your own contact information)

Documents you'll need

Watch out for

  • You must have received a notification letter from Ward — without the class member ID and PIN from that letter, you cannot complete the claim form
  • The claim deadline has passed (April 27, 2026); check the settlement website to confirm whether any extension was granted
  • If the total amount claimed across all class members exceeds the net settlement fund, cash payments and out-of-pocket loss reimbursements will be reduced proportionally
  • Attorneys' fees alone may consume a significant portion of the total settlement fund before class member payments are calculated

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.
