Question about the Google Adwords $20M Settlement

[feeco]

Hi, I got a message in my inbox this morning about a Google Adwords $20M Settlement. Saying that they didn't always abide by the daily speding limit. I did notice that at the end of the month our cost was slightly higher than our budget, but didn't think anything of it. Has this affected any of you?

I did a google search and read a little more here: Google Moves Closer To Paying $20M Settlement | WebProNews

I am wondering...
1) if anyone has more details on this,
2) how I find out if I qualify
3) what steps do I need to take.

Thanks

I got it today too but haven't read through it yet. Looked long and boring. But I'll have to set aside some time very soon.

I found my budget seemed to always go over by about half the cost of a click. I think they liked to stop just over the budget than just under the budget!

Geezzz .. I'll have to go back into the books and see how much we spent during the duration. I really never expected anything but it's worth a look to see. We spent some pretty pennies back in those months.

You have all the details (answers to all your 3 questions above) in the actual e-mail.
A lot of reading but...

I haven't received any e-mail also.

Anyway $20 million is not a lot of money to Google who is worth billions.

You need to check your Spam folder. Particularly if you use Googlemail!

I stumbled across the subject email by accident.

With around 1000 spams a day through various accounts, I don't generally check the Spam account before deleting it all.

I would guess that's what most people do, and Google will realise that!

Need I say more?

I notice in my Adwords account I get occasional small refunds from fraudulent clicks.

Same about the refund. This thread is kinda old now and I'm wondering did we get the money? Is my check in the mail?
