Multiple deadlines are approaching in a $117.5 million Comcast settlement stemming from a cybersecurity breach several years ago that exposed the personal information of millions of Xfinity customers.

Some current and former Comcast customers who are eligible have a July 1 deadline to submit objections or to opt out of the agreement. A final hearing on the settlement will be held on Aug. 5.

Not Everyone Is Eligible

Only some Comcast customers are automatically eligible to file a claim to receive money.
