GoKawiilIf you subscribed to YouTube TV or DirecTV at any time since April 2019, you could get cash as part of a $50 million settlement agreed to by Disney in an antitrust lawsuit the corporation faced for allegedly forcing higher prices for live TV streaming services.
To be eligible for a payout, you had to have bought a subscription to either YouTube TV or DirecTV -- or both -- between April 1, 2019, and March 31, 2026. DirecTV subscriptions might have been called DirecTV Stream, DirecTV Now and/or AT&T TV Now.
How to apply for the settlement
If you're part of the settlement, you will likely get a notice in your USPS mailbox or your email inbox. Check your junk or spam folders in case your email service filtered it. The deadline for claiming a payment is Sept. 8.
If you get a notice, go to this website and log in with the ID and PIN provided on the settlement notice. You will need to verify your YouTube TV or DirecTV Stream subscription.
If you don't get a notice but believe you are eligible for the cash settlement, send an email to [email protected] or print out a PDF version of the claim form and send it via snail mail to:
