In a significant development, the class action lawsuit against Capital One, titled In re Capital One 360 Savings Account Interest Rate Litigation, is moving towards a proposed settlement. The settlement, valued at $425 million, covers all individuals and entities who held a Capital One 360 Savings account between September 18, 2019, and June 16, 2025.
If you fall under this category, you may be eligible for a cash payment based on your historical account balances. Eligible customers will receive direct cash payments without the need to prove financial harm, as the settlement is based on Capital One’s own account records.
To be more specific, eligible class members include all individuals and entities who maintained a Capital One 360 Savings account during the specified period, including joint and co-holders. Capital One’s records will identify the eligible class members, who receive notification by mail or email.

If your payment amount is $5 or more, Capital One will mail a check to your last known address unless you choose an electronic payment option. For payments under $5, you must choose electronic payment to receive funds.
