soapbox

So, even though the major credit card companies do not  concede any wrongdoing, a class-action lawsuit against them is in its final stages, which means that you have ~10 days left to claim $$ from them.

This stems from the foreign currency fees charged by Visa/Mastercard/etc, so click here if you used your credit card overseas between 1996 and 2006.   I haven’t finished it yet -updates today or tomorrow, but I am told that the best way is to call first and get a claim number, then finish it up online.  (But it has to be done/completed by May 30th!)

There are three different options: if you didn’t travel much, then you just get $25.  Or you can total up your time spent abroad, or if you spent a lot and have absurdly good records, you can enter the amount that you spent abroad.
