I am rejecting this response because:I have researched this response. My email id is correct however no paypal payment has been sent to this email id. There is absolutely no email notification received from this settlement about this paypal payment. Further more i have check all my transactions in my paypal account with above email and the the above paypal transaction id provided is incorrect and does not appear on any transaction on my paypal account.Its possible that the payment vendor used has made a mistake in sending the payment to the email address listed or the payment was returned back to the vendor . In both those case the class admin need to resend the paypal payment to email address on file. I would ask the class admin to research the issue on their side
Sincerely,

This is regarding the ***** v. *************************** ********** **** (claim # WCF0069207). I have not yet received this settlement payment and asked the team to reissue my check back in 2021. They never reissued my check and never responded even after i sent the contact web form to them 3 times ignoring my requests with zero response or acknowledgement. Any amount of delay is the total responsibility of kroll avoiding the reissue of class admin check for this claimBusiness Response

Hello,
Distribution was sent out in on 5/20/22. I see a few class members with similar names as the person below but no one with that address or any of the other contact information provided (Email/ phone numbers). Payments were sent to every class member so if she was one, she would have been sent a payment
We would welcome researching further if ******************** can provide her Reference Number or Class Member ID so we can determine when a payment was sent.Thank you

Thanks for updating me on the response from the business . As you can see from the response it is clear they have not even read the complaint or its content and their response is totally absurd to say the least. First they are calling me ******************* although my name is clearly listed on the complaint as *********************** . Second my complaint contains my claim ID in the first line of the complaint (claim # WCF0069207) yet they are saying that i did not provide my claim ID . Third they are saying the distribution happened on 5/20/22 which is again incorrect as the settlement ***** v. *************************** ********** *********************************** paid out in beginning of 2021. I contacted them multiple times using the contact us form to reissue my check to updated address in the first quarter and second quarter of 2021 and they never responded to me on all 3 occasions thereby effectively keeping my money by avoiding the reissue. This has happened to multiple people and not only to me for this settlement (they simply do not respond on the contact us form)
Sincerely,

I am a confirmed member of the Caliber Home Loan Settlement. Last year in November I believe, I reached out to Kroll, to be told this could take years, and that there was currently no settlement being reached. As of November 2022, I contacted Kroll again, because it appears this case was settled, although I have yet to receive any communications or payout from this business regarding this class action settlement.Business Response

This is regarding ****** ****************** ********************** Breach Litigation Settlement. I believe Kroll is the class action settlement administrator. I filed a claim with Kroll a while back (Claim number is AHC00712396). I was sent a letter from Kroll Settlement Administrator LLC in November, but unfortunately I never received the letter (I was able to see that a letter was sent via **** Informed Delivery program -- the image is attached). On November 30, I called Kroll at ************** and spoke with customer service to request the lost letter to be re-sent to me. I was told their escalation team will contact me in 48 business hours. I never heard back. I called back on December 6. I was told the request to re-send the letter has been made and was asked to wait another week. Not having received the letter, I called back on December 13. I was told a request was made to their escalation team and that I just needed to wait.Business Response

Upon reviewing the request for a letter to be resent *** reached out via phone and left a message for ************ denoting a deficiency letter would be emailed immediately. *********** was emailed the original letter sent to the email address on file allowing until December 20, 2022 for a response. The email sent is attached and also contains a brief explanation as to what is required and a contact email and phone number for any further inquiries.Customer Answer

Received a notice in the mail from Kroll ************************* today re: ******** Settlement. I do not wish to be a part of this and will not pay any attorney or court fees associated with this. This is very unprofessional to send this out, print is very tiny on the postcard and hard to read, and then to find at the bottom that if I don't respond by a certain date, that I am responsible for attorney and court fees. This is a scam. Bad enough having my information compromised by ********, but having this sort of mailed communication is just wrong. I don't want anything to do with this law firm, the settlement and will not be held responsible for attorney or court fees. I want an apology and an acknowledgement in writing that I will not be responsible for attorney or court fees. Nasty company.Business Response

Kroll ************************* was hired as Settlement Administrator for the ************* Breach Settlement. Accordingly we noticed the class as directed by the Court. Class Counsel have undertaken this case on a contingency-fee basis, meaning they have paid for all of the expenses in the case and have not been paid any money in relation to their work on this case.Accordingly, Class Counsel will ask the Court to award them Attorneys Fees of up to 30% of the *************** and
reimbursement for costs and expenses to be paid from the ***************. The Court will decide the amount of fees and costs and expenses to be paid. You will not have to separately pay any portion of these fees yourself.Thank you

I received a letter stating my information was included in a data breach. I went online and completed their identity verification process which eventually took me to a page that said "Verification Failed" and gave me a number to call. When I called the representative told me that EVERYONE fails. When I asked, "If everyone fails then why is there an online verification process? Why not just tell people to call instead?". I was told, "It's so your information will be safe." That answer is not an answer. It's just words. The real answer can only be that this is a way to actually steal data from people. There needs to be an investigation into this company. I would like ALL of my information removed from Kroll's systems immediately!Business Response
