FTC refund program · Open
FTC CarShield Settlement
The FTC is sending 168,179 checks totaling more than $9.6 million to people who paid CarShield for a vehicle service contract between September 2019 and September 2024 and then had a claim denied. Checks are mailed and the page describes no claim form; cash one within 90 days. The refund administrator is Analytics, on 1-855-298-8877. The FTC will not ask you to pay money to receive a refund.
There is no claim form for this one. The administrator pays consumers it has already identified, so the useful step is to make sure they can reach you — not to file anything. Anyone offering to file it for you, for a fee, is selling you nothing.
