One more day for customers to claim their credit – are you owed up to $150

NATIONAL Grid, one of the largest power companies, has agreed to settle a class-action lawsuit that millions of customers may benefit from.

There is one day left to claim payment, worth up to $150.

Applications close May 22.

The company was sued for allegedly violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by contacting customers without consent.

National Grid operates in New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island.

On your monthly bill, charges may show from the following sub-companies. National Grid is the parent company of each one.

• Boston Gas Co. (Massachusetts)
• Colonial Gas Co. (Massachusetts; now part of Boston Gas)
• Massachusetts Electric Co. (Massachusetts)
• Nantucket Electric Co. (Massachusetts)
• KeySpan Gas East Corp. (New York)
• The Brooklyn Union Gas Co. (New York)
• Niagara Mohawk Power Corp. (New York)
• The Narragansett Electric Co. (Rhode Island)

National Grid has not admitted to any wrongdoing but did agree to a $38.5million settlement.

Who is eligible?

If you received a robocall or pre-recorded call from National Grid or a subsidiary between March 9, 2011, and October 29, 2021, you may be eligible.

According to the suit, the calls were allegedly about bill payments, disconnect notices, or other "important matters" relating to customers' accounts.

Class members will be able to claim a cash refund from the suit, but the payment amount has not yet been finalized.

Attorneys behind the class action estimate that members will receive between $50 and $150, but that number will vary based on how many people file claims.

Potential class members may have received a notice in December 2021 about the suit.

If you believe you're eligible for the class action but did not receive a notice, you can contact the settlement administrator by email at info@nationalgridtcpasettlement.com or over the phone at (855) 784-1955.
