Thursday marks the final day for eligible AT&T customers, current and former, to partake in a settlement worth $60 million from the company.

The settlement comes after a 2014 lawsuit in which the Federal Trade Commission alleged that at least 3.5 million AT&T customers subscribed to unlimited plans had their data speeds slowed down when they reached a certain limit every month. AT&T customers reported that video streaming, web browsing, and GPS navigation "became difficult or nearly impossible to use" due to this slowed speed, according to CNET.

AT&T disputes the FTC's allegations, but the company decided to settle "rather than continue with drawn-out litigation," a company spokesperson told CNET.

To be eligible for this settlement, applicants must be former AT&T customers with an unlimited data plan at any point between Oct. 1, 2011, and June 30, 2015, and they must have experienced slowdowns. Applicants must also have never received a settlement-related credit or check from the company.

Those who wish to partake in this settlement need to submit an application by Thursday. An applicant can submit an application either online via a form from the FTC website or by requesting a claim form by calling 877-654-1982 or emailing info@ATTDataThrottling.com.

The specific amount one can receive from this settlement will vary depending on how many file a valid claim, according to an FTC spokesperson. In the first round of payments, current and former AT&T customers got between $10 and $23. The amount varies depending on which state applicants live in.

Most current AT&T customers should have already received a credit on their account. If they did, they are not eligible for this offer. Similarly, former customers who already received a check from AT&T are not eligible for this offer.
