Publix Robocall Class Action Will Proceed

A Florida federal judge has refused to strike the class allegations from a proposed robocall class action lawsuit against Publix supermarket chain. The supermarket is accused of Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). Companies that make automated phone calls without the recipient’s consent can be held liable to pay between $500 and $1,500 for each robocall call.

In the Publix robocall class action, the plaintiff claimed that he received 13 autodialed calls in nine months in 2014, during which a pre-recorded voice told him that his prescription was ready for pickup at a Publix store. But he claimed that he does not live in that town, has never used a Publix pharmacy, and has never given the grocery chain his cell phone number. He also alleged that he called the store three times and each time was assured that the calls would stop, but the calls continued.

If you received an unwanted and unapproved robocall or text to your cell phone from Publix or any other company and you did not give your consent to be called, you may have a valid TCPA claim and be entitled to recover damages.
