When you’re ready to file a refund claim for Fortnite with the FTC, simply head online to fill out their official form. It’s a straightforward process, but you’ll need to have either a previously received claim number or your Epic Account ID on hand. Keep in mind that you must be at least 18 years old to complete this form. However, if you’re not quite there yet, no worries—get a parent or legal guardian to assist you. Mark your calendar: the FTC has set a deadline for submitting claims—January 10, 2025.
From what the FTC shares in their FAQ section, they anticipate sending out more payments in 2025, once they’ve thoroughly reviewed and validated all the submitted claims. If you’ve chosen to receive your payment via PayPal, be sure to accept it within 30 days. For those preferring a check, remember to cash it within 90 days.
