As part of the settlement you can charge for your hourly time that you had to spend figuring out credit monitoring

  Comes out of the same $31 million. I'm unsure how distribution will work once more than $31 million is requested, but you're likely not going to see the full amount.

    My reading of the settlement is that of the $310 million, up to $31 million (10%) is allocated to hourly time claims (section 6.2.6) and a separate $31 million is allocated to "Alternative Reimbursement Compensation", i.e. the $125 cheques (section 7.5). So it's still capped at the same amount, but comes from a different pool.

      Either way, it's still a laughably small amount to set aside. They leaked data on 147 million people, are they really only expecting 248k people to want to be reimbursed? That's 0.0017% of the affected population.
