Vantage CU Settles Class Action Lawsuit

Missouri Lawyers Weekly recently unearthed a large class action settlement against Vantage Credit Union of St. Louis, Missouri.

According to the story, Vantage Credit Union in early 2013 agreed to write off $28 million in judgments and debts and to try to fix credit reports for more than 3,000 people to settle a complaint over allegedly faulty repossession notices.

Also, $3 million in cash was set aside for certain class members; attorneys’ fees; and an incentive award to the class representative.

The settlement applied to people whose property was repossessed as collateral from January 28, 2006, to January 31, 2011.
