Coast Dental Unwanted Texts and Calls Settlement
Eligible recipients of repeated Coast Dental appointment texts or calls after opting out may choose up to $59 cash instead of a toothbrush voucher. Claims are due December 24, 2026. Payment depends on final approval and the settlement terms.
Key facts
The lawsuit alleges that Coast Dental continued appointment-related calls or texts after consumers opted out, violating telephone-privacy laws. Coast Dental denies the allegations and wrongdoing.
How much could an individual receive?
Eligible claimants can choose up to $59 cash or a voucher worth up to $99 toward an electronic toothbrush sold by Coast Dental. These are alternatives, not a combined $158 payment. Actual cash depends on the settlement allocation after approved costs. The claim form must clearly select cash to avoid the default voucher.
What proof is needed?
The paper form asks for identifying details, the number that received the contacts, a signed eligibility statement and a cash-or-voucher selection. It does not request message screenshots or loss receipts. The online portal requires notice credentials. If the benefit selection is missing or unclear, the paper form defaults to a voucher rather than cash.
What dates and payment conditions matter?
Claims are due December 24, 2026. A final approval hearing is scheduled for December 9, 2026. A scheduled hearing does not mean the settlement has final approval. Payment depends on approval, the settlement becoming effective and any appeals being resolved. No payment date is promised.
Who may qualify
People in the United States who, within the four years before filing, received more than one appointment-related Coast Dental text or call within 12 months on a cellphone after replying STOP or a similar opt-out request may qualify. One claim is allowed per class member.
What proof do you need?
Do you need proof of purchase?
For this settlement, you will not need proof of purchase. The paper form asks for identifying details, the number that received the contacts, a signed eligibility statement and a cash-or-voucher selection. It does not request message screenshots or loss receipts. The online portal requires notice credentials. If the benefit selection is missing or unclear, the paper form defaults to a voucher rather than cash.
Where do these requirements come from?
From the official settlement notice - the document that sets out who qualifies and what they have to provide. Claim summarizes it; Claim does not set it. Where the notice and this page disagree, the notice is the one that counts.
How can I check a settlement email or text?
Who is the administrator?
Analytics Consulting LLC is the settlement administrator: the company a court appoints to run the claims process, send notices and make payments. It is not the company being sued, and it is not Claim.
Is the sender's name enough to trust the message?
No. A sender name, a display name, a reply-to address and even a case number can all be copied. Check the case name and number in the message against the ones on this page, and reach the court-authorized settlement website yourself rather than through a link or button in the message.
What warning signs should I look for?
Any request for a fee, a payment or a wire to release settlement money. Any request for full banking login details. Pressure to act straight away. A web address that does not match the one in the official notice. Genuine notices identify the case by name and number and explain how payment is made.
Claim helps you check whether you may qualify, understand the official requirements, and keep track of settlement deadlines.
