According to the complaint (which was originally filed in 2012), Motorola made several representations on its website and Twitter page indicating that it would upgrade the CLIQ XT’s mobile operating system when, according to plaintiffs, the company never did. According to the settlement terms, class members may receive a unique redemption code worth $25 to use at the Motorola Online Store. In addition, the company agreed, for a period of 18 months, to include a disclaimer on any Upgrade webpage. (Haught et al v. Motorola Mobility, Inc., Case No. 12-cv-02515, N. D. IL.).
