Case Synopsis
Arias Sanguinetti helped secure a $6.94 million settlement on behalf of consumers who were charged more than the displayed price when using a credit, debit, or prepaid card at Canteen vending machines operated by Compass Group USA. The lawsuit alleged that Compass failed to disclose this card surcharge practice, leaving millions of consumers unknowingly overcharged for everyday purchases.
This case is a reminder that even small, hidden fees – repeated across millions of transactions – add up to real harm. Consumers deserve to know exactly what they’re paying when they make a purchase, and this resolution holds Compass accountable for a practice that quietly cost people money every day.
“We won’t settle for anything less than justice that transforms.”
