How to file my claim to get my $25

You evidently don't know how to post a question either. Posting an image to get large type won't produce any different an answer.


By reading this thread before you posted you would have discovered that a) the procedure has not been finalized yet, and b) it is not available to people outside the USA.

Can you send 25$ to*********@gmail.com on PayPal I own the iPhone 7

No, I absolutely refuse to send you any money. This is a PUBLIC user-to-user technical support forum. That means that anyone connected to the Internet, anywhere in the world, can see what you posted. So posting your email address was incredibly foolish.

You wait for the final judgement of the court to be filed. That will probably be in a couple of years now, with courts in the US closed due to the Coronavirus. Then, if you are eligible, the agency assigned by the court will contact you with instructions. You don’t have to take any action at all. To be eligible you must reside in the US and must have had a phone in 2017-2019. And note that $25 is an estimate based on the estimated number of eligible users; it may be higher or lower than that.

On March 2, 2020 various news media published that Apple had agreed to a class action settlement regarding slowdowns of some iPhone devices whose batteries were failing. Note that this is still tentative, and could change, but as of March 2, 2020 this is what we know (based on published news):

  • This is a PROPOSED settlement of a class action suit, based on a claim that Apple deliberately slowed down some phones, which Apple denies, but is willing to settle to avoid protracted litigation.
  • Apple will set aside $310 Million to $500 Million in the PROPOSED settlement.
  • Under the PROPOSED settlement the original plaintiffs will get $3,500 each.
  • Under the PROPOSED settlement their lawyers will get $93 million.
  • The settlement has not been approved by the judge in the case, and until the judge approves it (or requires it to be modified) no one is getting anything.
  • It applies only to owners of the 6, 6S, 7 (and their Plus versions) and the SE who had installed specific versions of iOS.
  • Eligibility is users who reside in the US and purchased their phones in the US, and who have experienced slowdowns due to battery degradation.
  • The $25 is an estimate, it could be more or less depending on how many claims are filed.
  • Once the settlement (or its modified version) is approved by the court a procedure will be published for filing claims.

Read the thread you posted to. You're not getting any money in the near future and you may not even qualify IF and WHEN the settlement is approved. If it is approved you will be notified by the overseeing agency when and how to file a claim. Probably in about 2 years.

That is absolute nonsense. If Apple replaced your battery and you had a problem Apple would have fixed it. If you replaced the battery yourself or had someone other than Apple replace it you got a poor quality battery. None of that has anything to do with the class action suit that MAY result in some users getting some sum of money, which may or may not be $25, when the suit is finally settled in a couple of years.
