Were you a Verizon employee that was charged more for your health insurance because you smoke, vape, or use nicotine?

Smokers, vapers, and other nicotine users may have been unfairly penalized through increased health insurance premiums or wellness surcharges under the Verizon Welfare Benefit Plan.

We are investigating the Plan for potentially unlawful nicotine-related surcharges, including higher paycheck deductions or wellness penalties that may violate federal employee benefits law.

If you were enrolled in the Verizon Welfare Benefit Plan at any point in the past six years and paid more because of tobacco, vape, or nicotine use, you may be entitled to recover those charges.

If you participated in the Plan anytime since December 2019, we would like to speak with you about your experience. Please submit your information if you are interested in discussing potential legal claims with our legal team.
