Latest News About Fidelity Class Action Lawsuit

Updated 2026-05-19 07:04

Here are the most recent class-action headlines involving Fidelity that I can find right now, plus what they generally mean for affected people:

1) Fidelity “data breach” class action (2024 incident)

A court-approved settlement was reported as $2.5 million, tied to an August 2024 data breach/cybersecurity incident. Eligible class members may receive cash (up to $5,000 for documented losses) and credit monitoring/identity-theft related protections, and the settlement includes a claim process with deadlines that appear to run through July 27, 2026 (per the reporting I’m seeing).[3]

2) Fidelity 401(k) “plan fees / self-dealing” style class actions (older, but still recurring)

There have also been major earlier class-action developments involving Fidelity’s retirement/401(k) plan investments and fees, including a settlement reported at $28.5 million for a class 401(k) challenge alleging improper use of Fidelity-affiliated investments.[1] (While this is not “latest,” it’s one of the most prominent recent milestones for the 401(k) litigation thread.)
