Not legal advice
This is the most important page on the site. Please read it before acting on anything in a ClaimCheck report.
Last updated: 28 August 2026
ClaimCheck is not a law firm, is not a legal practitioner, and does not give legal advice. Nothing on this site creates a lawyer–client relationship, and no ClaimCheck report can tell you whether you have a legal claim.
What a ClaimCheck report is
- A research summary of publicly reported Australian class actions and consumer proceedings that appear to overlap with your answers.
- A set of signals — the company involved, the incident, the relevant period, and who the action is reported to cover.
- A starting point with links so you can go straight to the law firm or court register and check for yourself.
What it is not
- Not advice about your legal rights, options or prospects.
- Not a registration in any class action.
- Not confirmation that you are a group member.
- Not a promise, estimate or guarantee of any payment to you.
- Not a substitute for speaking to a qualified Australian lawyer.
Only the law firm or court decides
Every class action defines its group ("class") precisely — by dates, products, account types, or residency. Registration windows open and close, actions are consolidated, discontinued or settled, and settlement distributions follow court-approved schemes. Those determinations are made by the lawyers running the action and by the court, never by ClaimCheck.
Information can be out of date
Our curated records are drawn from public sources and are reviewed periodically, and some entries are surfaced from recent reporting and labelled as needing verification. Details can change after we publish them. Always confirm against the primary source before relying on anything — especially deadlines.
Deadlines are your responsibility
Limitation periods and registration cut-offs are strict. ClaimCheck does not monitor deadlines for you and does not notify you when one is approaching. If a report identifies a potentially relevant action, contact the listed firm promptly.
Where to get real advice
- The law firm listed against the action in your report.
- Your state or territory Legal Aid service, or a community legal centre.
- Your state or territory Law Society or Law Institute referral service.
- For privacy and data breach complaints, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
