Uber and Lyft settled investigations into whether they took pay from drivers for a price tag of $328 million.

Hundreds of thousands of Uber and Lyft drivers may be eligible for a piece of a $328 million pie after the two companies agreed to what New York's state attorney general called the largest wage-theft settlement her office has ever secured.

In those investigations, James' office alleged that from 2014 to 2017 Uber deducted sales tax and Black Car Fund — New York's surcharge to provide workers benefits — fees from driver payments when they should have been paid for by passengers. It also alleges Lyft deducted 11.4%"administrative charges" from drivers' payments from 2015 to 2017 that amount to fees riders should have paid.
