If you had a Capital One 360 Savings account between September 18, 2019, and whenever an eventual settlement is approved in 2025, you are eligible for a claim. Capital One will pay a $425 million fine after a lawsuit said the bank unfairly kept legacy customers on low interest rates while offering much higher ones to new accounts.
The bank denies wrongdoing, but the settlement is allowing affected account holders the opportunity to receive compensation or improved savings rates. Customers will have to take part by filling out a claim form, which is currently being produced. It is a notable settlement because it targets long-standing issues for longstanding Capital One customers.
Capital One Bank Settlement Claim Form
The lawsuit called Capital One Settlement informed the 360 Savings customers that their interest rates would likely rise with the economic climate, yet after hearing the customer it’s unlikely they would even switch the account or inform them of a better account. Instead, accounts were paid at a lower level of about 0.3–1%, even as market rates spiked.
As a consequence, millions of customers lost out on billions of dollars in interest from 2019. This discrepancy was cited in the lawsuit and resulted in a settlement without admission of wrongdoing to compensate customers. The plan, including the way any payouts and account upgrades will be apportioned, is still subject to the approval of the judge.
The settlement consists primarily of two components. First, $300 million will be paid to former and current customers who had 360 Savings accounts during the covered period, to make up for missed interest earnings. How much an individual receives is based on how long they had the account and how much money was in it.
Second, the $125 million will increase interest for people who still have legacy savings accounts. Legacy accounts will have to pay at least double the national average savings rate as calculated by the FDIC, for better returns, prospectively. In May 2025, the average national rate was approximately 0.42%.
