SiriusXM has reached a preliminary settlement in a class action lawsuit alleging the satellite radio company made repeated, unsolicited telemarketing calls to consumers, including those on the National Do Not Call Registry or SiriusXM’s internal do-not-call list.
In a joint filing this month with the U.S. District Court in Illinois, both parties announced a settlement term sheet and are now finalizing a comprehensive agreement. They intend to seek the court’s preliminary approval of the settlement and certification of the proposed class. The parties have requested a pause on decisions regarding pending motions until these steps are completed.
Filed in February 2022 in Illinois federal court by plaintiffs Julie Campbell, Keith Sadauskas, Diana Bickford, and Kerrie Mulholland, alleged SiriusXM continued making unsolicited telemarketing calls to non-subscribers whose numbers were on the National Do Not Call Registry or SiriusXM’s internal list.

The plaintiffs claimed SiriusXM obtained their contact information from car dealerships and persisted with calls despite prior settlements, including two over the past decade totaling over $60 million.
This lawsuit sought to represent nationwide and state-specific classes from Illinois, Washington, and North Carolina, but no settlement details for this case are available in the provided information.
Additionally, a 2024 class action filed in Alabama by Micah Scott accused SiriusXM of placing robocalls with prerecorded messages to his cellphone in 2021 without consent, violating the TCPA. Scott sought to expand the case to a class action for subscribers who received similar calls over the past four years. No settlement has been reported for this case.
