i wanna to know do tyson in glen allen virgina get some of that 32million . everyone wants to know i work at that plant i think we should get some of that money every plant is the same way .

i just got my portion of the lawsuit ita was 300 i thought it was a 1000 where is the rest of my money and they took taxes out i need my money

I work at tyson foods in shelbyville tn. tyson gave me a number to call, about the lawsuit. u get a recording saying u may get more info, before nov. 30. 855-300-622
does anyone know more.

855-300-6220

I wnat to know if anybody at the Jacksonville plant can get the claim? because the plant closed down and alot of people have a change of address could some body answer that plz

I worked at Tysons in Arkansas, and cannot get any info from Tysons, or the labor board. I was never given any paperwork to join a lawsuit, or any numbers to get information, I do know that others working at the plant recently received a $300 check and they did not fill out any paperwork either. They received it as a “bonus” which Tysons doesnt do. How clever. i want my money that i earned and is due to me.

call 18004457890 and there is a recording letting you know the status but they say if a consent form wasn’t filled out by 2009 its to late to join

I am a former employee of tyson foods in waldron, ar and i was there in 2009 and filled and signed lawsuit papers, do or can you help me find out why i did not get any money that was owed to me

I worked at Tyson Foods and I was there also in 2009. I also filled and signed lawsuit papers and sent them in to the address on the paper. I called the number , I waited and the the person I talked to told me I was not on the list. This is a 12 -year- old litigation. Why are they denying people that worked there at the time there wages? It’s not fair and unconstitutional. We have a right to our wages due!!!!!! We all need to stand together and get something done about this.

have anybody got paid yet?

I FILE MY W2 WITH TYSON, SO WHEN WE GET PAID SINCE THE SETTLEMENT HAS BEEN WON.

I worked at tyson in ar for 13 years… shouldn’t I get more than say someone who only worked there a year? I recieved and mailed back a W4 form a couple of months ago, how long till I get a check?

I myself filled out a W2 form and that is been over 3 months ago and i still have not received any compensation. I dont understand what is taking so long!

My husband received the W-4 because he worked at the North Little Rock plant in Arkansas and qualified for the settlement. When we contacted a live person-after we mailed the form back on March of this year- we were told that the payments are scheduled to be sent out starting in June of this year. They said there will be 2 checks in the packet sent out. The first check is for the overtime wages and taxes will be taken out; hence the w-4. The second check is for damages and is not subject to taxes.

Well I filed my w 4 and was told in a letter that first check is taxed and the second one you have to pay to the taxes on hence why they are sendin a 1099 with them and when are they sending out checkes …and I never gotten a number to talk to a human on the phone ….and if anyone has it please post thanks

DOES ANYONE HAVE THE INFORMATION WITH THE LAWYERS NAMES AND NUMBERS… ON IT PLEASE POST
CALLED THE 855-300-6220 NUMBER THEY ARE SAYIN SOMETIME FALL 2012 FOR CHECKS

I was wondering when are we actually going to receive our checks. First they were saying sometime in June or the end of June 2012. Now they are saying by the Fall 2012. Some of us can not wait that long. We are needing our money, and we need it now. Who can we contact about this?

September???? really!!! dang it. I was gonna have a good summer with that money… oh well later is better than never I guess.

I am a former worker from the Obion County Tyson Pl in TN

So much went on with my car in the plant I had to leave my job . For what ever reason someone kept stabling my tires . Each time I got them fix which was nearly daily . They finally lifted the hood and stabled holes in all my hoses under the hood causing my car to be totaled out . I have to leave it behind in TN I left .

No one ever did a thing about it after numerous reports. I was to worried to return to work I loved on a really dark back road out there my car broke down after I get off work a nearly 1 am that was not good at all .

could someone please email and tell me how to get my check cuase i never got one its now 2012

Still no check!!!

I am a former employe and I was never given the chance to join the lawsuit what can I do?

I’m still waiting on my check for the N.L.R plant. I have not heard a word or received a letter of whats going on..

I worked at the north little rock plant and hadnt received my check yet will it be sept.

i worked at the robards ky plant still havn’t received any money what number can i call to speak to a lawyer or someone to give me a for sure time frame i’ve heard it all now for five years since i filled out my original paper work my w4 was mailed back in feb of this year i want $$$$$$

I heard the same thing I talk to someone on the phone she said Aug.27 or the first week of September.

I recently moved… do you suppose they will forward that check, if not, who do I send my new address to?

You need to call (855)300-6220 and give them your new address.

IT’S MY MONEY AND I NEED IT NOW!!!

anything new??? no word here yet.

September the 4th is what that number says when i call

I have worked for tyson

since 2008 but I have not got a letter will I still get a check

they said sept 4th checks will be mailed i guess i will hAVE TO WAIT AND SEE I REALLY NEED IT BUT I KNOW ITS NOT 1000

I hope it’s enuff..the recording says it will be two checks sent out.

I heard one was a $1000 and the other a be taxed so it will vary from person to person.

September 4th is when they say they will be sent

Who all gets the checks? Someone just told me about this on August 31st. Since I am a former employee, do they send me a check? If I no longer live at the same address, will I still get the check?

Checks were mailed Sep. 4, 2012…yay

Praise God for this..li really need the money..

sorry christine, but there was a deadline for you to fill out a w-4.

I just got off the phone and reward checks were for sure mailed the 4th(yesterday) and they were mailed first class and if you havent received them by the 17th then to call them back 855-300-6220

Yes, the checks were mailed yesterday (Sept 4) from Florida. They were sent via regular mail, so maybe about 3-4 days mailing time depending on where you live. We moved in Feb this year( live in North Little Rock, AR), so we called and changed the address with them in March after we mailed back the w-4. The recording says it is too late to change your address, but if you forwarded your mail, then you should still receive the check; they do say to leave a recording with your new address and contact information just in case it gets sent back to them so they can re-mail it to the proper address.
As soon as we get the check, I will post how long it took to get it from the 4th and how much each one was..maybe that will help some people know when theirs should come and we can compare amounts based on time at Tyson.

That’s a great idea Cathy.

Praise God, I just received my settlement……In the form of 2 checks, One for Liquidated Damages and another for back pay….Also just to let you all know, the back pay was taxed, and The Liquidated check has been reported to the IRS, you are responsible for paying any taxes owed when you file your next tax return…..Also the checks are written on Huntington national bank….

what state you from jt

I got my check today..that little money I got is nothing to brag on

But like JT…Praise God ..i got wht I got..

I live in Jackson Ms….

I worked at Tyson for 9 years, hit em pretty hard!!!!$$$

I think everyone is going to get screwed. The amount people got back that was a little bit probably had more coming to them. However, once the lawyers got their greedy hands on it, it lowered the amount. I think everyone should send a letter to complain. All the lawyers did was use us to get paid……so far it has worked.

Is everyone gettn 1000

i am not trying to be nosey but did anyone get a thousand dollars on the liquidated check

jenn were you live at

i am just very curious about the amount they are sending aout i live in tn and i worked at tyson for 2 years

Im curious too

keke were you live and how long did you work at tyson

Do you have to sign for the checks?

did anyone get a 1000 on either check

I live in Texas a year

if either or was a thousand dollars i would be happy somthing is better than nonthing

i hope i get mine friday and if i do i will put both amounts on here so people will have an idea

I have a friend who got back 360.00 total an that was for both checks. He worked at tysons for three years.

wow thats crazy to wait that long to get that much

thanks billy for that info

I live in MS.

Your welcome Merry. Also, my sister called me and said she got back $300.00 for both checks. What is going on?! When I get mines, I am going to let people know as well. I think it is wrong for anyone to get less than $1000.00. I talked to one of the lawyers and she was talking like they are doing us a favor. We all deserve more than what they are sending us. Do anyone agree?

Damn is that 360 a piece or Is that added toghther

That is 360 added together.

I live in MS and everyone I talk to got over a 1000 but I got nothing I been at tyson going on 8 year and when to the meeting some got the money and dint sign nothing so what’s up with that

Belinda, I am one of those who went, signed up, and was told there was no paperwork on me. Others did not go and said they received confirmation of a settlement. Barrett, Johnston law firm in Nashville could not tell me why or where the initial application to participate went. I know where the money went, though: to the lawyers.

Got my check today but not sure the amount yet…Will post it as soon as i get from my mothers house…Im an arkansas resident

I live in north little rock, Arkansas and my husband got his checks today..granted, he only worked there for about 4 months and the 2 checks checks barely totaled $25..although he worked more than 40 hours each week there for those 4 months…oh, well, at least the lawyers got rich, lol.

I worked at the nlr plant i hadn’t received mine yet…is there a number we can call to see
How much we getting

well i think it ashame to wait this long and only the lawyer get all the money a $6.00 check come on what is this??????

I live in Tennessee. I worked at the Tyson factory in Union City, Tn. I received my two checks today. Each check was (estimated) $25. What gives? I thought we were supposed to get $1000 on the liquidated check? Where has all of this money gone?

Its terrible people worked at Tyson over 10 years and didn’t know anything about this lawsuit. Most was denied. I feel everyone should get some of this money. Some were told if they apply they would be terminated. I think we should all stick together and do something about this. People that’s not employed with Tyson are the ones getting the bigger checks. I’m from Mississippi and wants to know why everyone is not getting checks.

we just got screwed….they used us to get the greater portion….if that money was to be divided up equally among the 17,000 people it would of been more than a lousy 300.00….GOD will repay them for there usury!!…I guess its true not to put your trust in man!!

I told everyone how they were paying people. I got mines today. One was for 197.00. The other 184.00. I tell ya, those lawyers used every single one of us. We ought to all regroup, get a lawyer and have this looked into!

I live in MO and still no check… I was there 13 years in all… I will post when I get mine… hopefully tomorrow

Mine was 187 and 194 something not right

mine was 104 and 110 and it was gone as soon as i cashed it to wait all these years to get 214.00 wow

i worked there almost three years

i also worked at the union city tn
tyson

I’m so heart broken by the testimonies…….I worked at McCarty farms, before Tyson came into play….I think that is where all the confusion comes into the fling of the law suit….My start date at McCarty was Jan./95……Worked 9 years on the debone line(wing cutter) for nine years of course Tyson had intervened by then…..Hell some times I worked ”DOUBLE” shifts….80 hrs per week……Dam near dead, but young and wanted something out of life…..What a lot of you are not understanding is, the amount of ”BACK PAY” , was evaluated upon how long/how many years….”THE COMPANY”…. was screwing us as far as taking off our gear, and the time they estimated for us wing cutters to get on the line….”DEBONE”???? without debone to cut the wing, pull the breast down, there is no way to pull tenders, and pull breast……..We wing cutters, (a long with the inveters and line loaders) Controlled the line process, So of course (”WE GOT SCREWED THE MOST)…….It hurts me to my heart to read people say, I got so little……If you were a QA or a leadman, of course you would receive less from the settlement as far as (back pay goes)….Now the Damages is for basicly……! Pain and suffering………………..God bless you all………….I hit them very hard on the settlement$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$…………………….9 years, God always makes his debut !!!!!!!!!!!

I was only there a couple months maybe and I got like almost 90 dollars

MY NAME IS JASON COFFEY WHEN THEY SINGED THE PAPER WORK AN EMPLOYEE TOLD ME NOT TOO SIGN THE PAPERWORK IF I DID I WOULD NOT GET ANYTHING IF I STILL CAN GET SOMETHING MY ADDRESS IS 141 BENNETT ST Heflin AL 36264 I WORK THERE IN 1993 TO 1999 WENT BACK IN 1999 UNTIL 2007 MY Phonenumber IS 2562017333.

I only worked there for one year and a half, but my aunt worked there for over 25 years. She signed her papers and then retired. She got over 20,000 dollars for her settlement check and close to 3,000 for her back pay. She cleaned up nice, but they did this totally not the way the letter read. I am the wife of Percy who is totally pissed; we planned a trip to New York with that money…SMH…

I want to know why I wasn’t eligible I sent in every piece of form and got nothing worked four years in Arkansas my friend got $4500 and she worked four years I want some answers

I been with Tyson since 2005 I didn’t receive anything! Its not fair!

I worked there for over 12 years and got two checks, one for $91 and one for $97. not going to say I”m not disapointed, but I”m still greatful for all god has given me. Trust in god, not big companies.

wow where did all the money go thought were going to get at least a thousand wow tyson you suck got only 320.00

I live in Missouri and am still employed at Tysons for 18 years and I have not seen a check yet. Is there a number you can call to see if you are getting one

I worked @ Tyson in Russellville,Ar, filled out all my papers & sent them in when I was supposed to.
Guess what, I rec’ a letter today that said I would NOT be getting a ck….. WHAT THE HECK????
So I TOTALLY agree with you LaTonya!!!!!!

WTF 25.00 Guess the lawyers gets that money LMAO
