The official website for information, and you can even file the whole thing right there is:

Thanks for the link! I used option 2 and claimed (rightfully) 179 days of all vacation travel. There's no way I could dig through piles of receipts for option 3.

Now I just have to wait for the settlement process to be complete. From what I read this could take some time!

I had a lot of time in Europe during this period and used my MBNA card plenty. MBNA was taken over by BoA. I never received any notice. Could this have fallen through the crack because of the takeover?

As artstuff points out with the listing of the forms, you should get a minimum of $25 cash if you qualify.

I got confused by some of the early posts in this thread. It seemed as if two mailings were being discussed, and one talked about an email. I provided no bank account or SSN at the ccf website.

I put in my measly 73 days of travel. From their calculations, it looks like they are estimating one week of travel to be about $2500 of expenses, which they expect to reimburse 1% = $25. For my 73 days, which equals 10.5 weeks, I am likely looking at around $260. Worth a couple seconds of my time, at any rate.

Gee, I HOPE they reimburse that much. I could use $1440.00.
But as I said back in April, I'm not holding my breath.

I just got a federal court notice today. It already has the amount of my previous claim, and I'm reading the whole thing a little differently from some others. According to this, I can let my claim stand (I don't have to do anything else) and should get "between 1% and 3% of the total amount" I already filed. Or I can switch to the $25 flat option (I'd be crazy to do that) OR I can go for that 1% of estimated expenses.

So, now it seems to be saying I could expect between $1440 and $4320. Merry Christmas (2012, probably).

I sincerely hope you get it, NeoPatrick. Hey, aren't you in Florida, too? Party at Patrick's house! He's buying...

Can someone who has received the "official" notice from the court please confirm that the mailing address for sending the claim formsis:

Settlement Administrator
P.O. Box 290
Philadelphia, PA 19105

We haven't received any notice (maybe the mail is too messed up here in the Northwest). I am not comfortable submitting the form on-line so would like to confirm that is the mailing address.

Thanks!

You are correct, with the exception of adding -290 after the zip

NeoP, note the fine print: "if the volume of claims is unexpectedly high, it may be necessary to adjust refund amounts."

I'm not counting on the full 1- 3%, but I'm still sticking with the Option 3. Our daughter studied in Italy a full semester during this time, so those expenses are pretty high. We hope we get something from this settlement.

P.S. The Philadelphia zip code is 19105-0290

HI
Thanks for posting this information. I received my form from the Phildelphia Court today and haven't filled it out yet.
