In re: Xfinity Data Breach Litigation
U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania

Comcast agreed to pay $117.5 million to resolve claims arising from a data breach that exposed the sensitive personal information of approximately 35.9 million Xfinity customers — including Social Security numbers, usernames, passwords, and contact information. The breach occurred in 2023 through a vulnerability in software used by Citrix, a third-party vendor, and affected a massive swath of the Xfinity subscriber base. The settlement fund of $117.5 million sounds substantial, but the math falls apart fast: plaintiff attorneys are requesting 33.3% of that fund — $39.17 million — in fees. That leaves roughly $78 million for 35.9 million affected customers, or about $2.17 per person before administrative costs. Actual per-person payouts depend on claim filing rates and tier eligibility (customers can claim compensation for out-of-pocket losses, time spent, or a flat pro-rata share). The 33.3% fee request is the cleanest objection target: courts in data breach class actions routinely award 20–25%, and class counsel here is seeking the maximum contingency rate typically reserved for individual personal injury cases — not mass litigation where the economies of scale should translate to a lower percentage. The objection deadline is June 1, 2026. Final fairness hearing: July 7, 2026. Claims can be filed through August 14, 2026 at ComcastBreachSettlement.com.
Fairness Assessment
2.5
Unfair
Red Flags
Attorney fees are 33.3% ($39.17M) — a full third of the settlement fund, far above the 25% benchmark courts routinely cite as a ceiling
With ~35.9 million affected customers, per-claimant payouts will likely be minimal unless the claim submission rate is extremely low
Settlement covers a serious data breach (customer SSNs and sensitive account data exposed) yet attorneys collect $39M while individual victims may receive single-digit dollar amounts
Fee request of one-third is the maximum contingency rate typically reserved for individual personal injury cases — not mass class actions where economies of scale should lower the percentage
Claim deadline is August 14, 2026 — class members may not have enough time to fully evaluate the payout before the objection window closes June 1
No independent fee examiner appointed to scrutinize the outsized fee request
