Verizon customers can claim part of a $100 million settlement the company is paying for allegedly charging an excess fee from users, provided they apply before the April 15 deadline.

The class-action lawsuit concerns Americans who purchased postpaid wireless plans from Verizon and were charged an undisclosed administrative fee, according to the official settlement website. Both the plaintiffs and Verizon agreed to a settlement to resolve the lawsuit, according to which the company will pay $100 million into a fund. The fund will be used to make settlement payments to class members, cover administrative costs, and meet attorney expenses.
