Chipotle customers who got orders delivered could be owed money after $4million lawsuit – see if you can claim
CHIPOTLE customers who got orders delivered to them could be owed money after a $4million lawsuit was filed against the restaurant franchise.
The class-action lawsuit was filed in 2021 and claimed that while Chipotle promised free or $1 delivery fees, customers were actually charged more.
In fact, those who opted for delivery often found themselves forking out a 10 percent service charge and between 12 and 15 percent more for food, according to the Krazy Cupon Lady.
That means customers who ordered $40 worth of food were be hit with a $4 service fee that you wouldn't have paid if you had picked up your food.
If you ordered your Chipotle food in the last two years, you could be eligible for a refund.
Anyone who placed an order on the Chipotle App or website between May 11, 2020, and January 19, 2022, might be entitled to a piece of the $4million.

The lawsuit splits claimants into two groups: members of the Chipotle Rewards program and those who are not.
Non-members will split $1million in cash in equal parts depending on how many claims are submitted.
Chipotle Rewards members will be able to divide the rest - $3million - into vouchers rather than cash payments.
The voucher should equal the amount of one regular priced entrée valued at $8.50.
Sadly, if you ordered Chipotle but didn't do it directly through the company's website or app then you won't be part of this settlement.
You'll need to file a claim by June 28, 2022, to get your payout.
