Yeah aren't these TCPA violations $2000 $$500+$1500 if you sue individually?
I'd opt out of the class action, copy the allegations in their complaint and file in small claims to get my $2000

10. How do I get out of the settlement?
To exclude yourself from the settlement, you must send a letter by mail saying that you want to be excluded from Sarabi v. Weltman, Weinberg, & Reis Co., L.P.A. Be sure to include your name, address, telephone number, and your signature. You must mail your exclusion request postmarked no later than December 28, 2012, 10 days after the Claims Period to the Claims Administrator at the following address:

You cannot exclude yourself on the phone or by email. If you ask to be excluded, you will not get any settlement payment, and you cannot object to the settlement. You will not be legally bound by anything that happens in this lawsuit. http://www.weltmantcpa.com/faq/
