[background=rgb(245,246,245)] Customers who purchased a Red Bull drink between 2002 and Oct. 3, 2014 are owed $10 cash or $15 in Red Bull products, according to a settlement the company agreed to last month. The company recently agreed to pay $13 million to consumers to settle two consumer class action lawsuits. Plaintiffs alleged that Red Bull’s marketing misrepresents both the functionality and safety of the company’s beverages. The drinkers claimed they were misled by the slogan “Red Bull gives you wings,†stating the company’s advertised benefits of “increased performance,†“improved concentration†and “reaction speed†are false. Red Bull said they agreed to the settlement to avoid further litigation. However, the company denies any wrongdoing. To receive a $10 cash payment or $15 in Red Bull products, you must submit a claim form or call 877-495-1568 and requesting that it be sent to you by mail.
