Youssefi v. Direct Energy Services, LLC
COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
SUPERIOR COURT BLS-1
Case No. 1884cv03809
If you sold Direct Energy products door-to-door in Massachusetts on a sales campaign brokered by Credico (USA) LLC for all or part of the time period between July 1, 2015 and October 31, 2018, a proposed Class Action Settlement may affect your rights.
If you received a Notice, it is because records maintained by either Direct Energy Services, LLC or Credico (USA) LLC indicate that you sold Direct Energy products door-to-door in Massachusetts on a Credico-brokered sales campaign during the relevant time period, which means you may be eligible to recover money as part of the Proposed Settlement and that your legal rights may be affected. This website and the Notice is intended to inform you about the Proposed Settlement so that you can make an informed decision about whether to participate in the Proposed Settlement.
If you are a Class Member, you have three options in deciding how you want to respond to the Notice and the Proposed Settlement:
| OPTION 1 | Submit a Claim Form. You will receive money from the Settlement only if you submit a valid Claim Form no later than October 24, 2024. The claims process is described in more detail in response to Question 8 of the Notice. |
| OPTION 2 | Do Nothing. If you do nothing, you will remain in the Class, but you will get no money from the Proposed Settlement. All of the Court’s orders will apply to you. You will not be able to file your own lawsuit to pursue the claims in this case. In other words, if you do nothing, you will still be bound by the proposed Settlement, including the release set forth on the Claim Form. |
| OPTION 3 | Object. You may object to the Proposed Settlement by mailing, e-mailing, or faxing a written objection to the Administrator, at the address below or number below, postmarked no later than October 24, 2024. Your objection must be in writing and must include a statement specifying the reasons you are objecting to the Proposed Settlement. The objection also must include your full name, mailing address, email address, and phone number, along with the name of the entity (or entities) that hired you to sell Direct Energy products on a Credico-brokered campaign, and the dates when you performed work for that entity. If you intend to appear before the Court to object to the Proposed Settlement at the fairness hearing (described in Question 6 of the Notice), you must state that in your objection. In addition, you must personally sign the objection. The Court may decline to consider any objection received after October 24, 2024 or which fails to meet the criteria described above.Any objection must be mailed, emailed, or faxed to the Administrator, at the following address:Direct Energy Settlement c/o Atticus Administration PO Box 64053 Saint Paul, MN 55164 Fax: 1-888-326-6411 Email: directenergysettlement@atticusadmin.com Please note that, even if you submit an objection to the Proposed Settlement, you must still submit a valid Claim Form in order to get money from the Proposed Settlement.
