Mine came in last week, a little over $30.
I had had some transactions in Turkey in 2003 where they had charged a conversion fee of well over the 2% they claimed to charge; that may have had something to do with the amount.
Edited to add: By the way, I don't think this is the correct thread for this recent refund. My check noted it was part of the settlement of the "LiPuma" suit. That suit was against AMEX and is the subject of this thread.
This thread (that I'm posting in right now) is about settlement in the class action against VISA, MC, and Diners Club for similar currency conversion fees. So, if your check is about AMEX, the other thread is the one dealing with that.
