Have you left money on the table that you didn’t even know about? Almost every single month, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) releases millions of dollars in refunds to consumers – refunds stemming from actions the agency has taken against companies for doing the consumer wrong.
Cumulatively, the agency’s mail room has sent out a lot of checks – $12.4 billion in refunds has been returned to more than 11 million consumers since mid-2018, stemming from 151 cases.
Some of the larger refunds from the more well-known brands make the news, such as the latest Vonage settlement, but some don’t, and some – like the Progressive Leasing refunds – sort of fade into the background, yet still have tens of millions in checks that consumers haven’t cashed yet.
The FTC says that it tries, but can’t always find every single consumer that’s due a refund. “Finding current contact information for eligible recipients is a challenge,” the agency said.
Active FTC refund programs
ConsumerAffairs thought we would spread the word a little and see if we can find our readers a little extra mad money that could come in handy this holiday season. We’ve compiled a list of every “active” refund program that the FTC has published. Here’s that list, along with a link to the FTC’s explanation of the refund and, where available, contact information on who to call to get your refund.
