VISA & Mastercard $167.5 Million Non-Bank ATM Fee Settlement - File a Claim By February 10, 2027

Did You Pay ATM Fees?

Think back: Have you used a non-bank ATM between 10/24/2007 and 8/14/2026 and paid an ATM fee that your bank didn't completely refund?

If YES → You may want to file a claim.

What Was the Lawsuit About?

The lawsuit alleged that VISA and Mastercard's network rules prevented independent ATM operators from offering different/lower access fees depending on which payment network processed a transaction. 

Plaintiffs argued this resulted in consumers paying higher ATM surcharges than they otherwise might have.

VISA and Mastercard deny wrongdoing, but agreed to the $167.5 million settlement to resolve the litigation.

Who May Qualify?

You may be eligible if all of these apply:

• You used an independent/non-bank ATM in the United States or its territories.

• You were charged an ATM surcharge/access fee.
• The transaction occurred between October 24, 2007 and August 14, 2026.
• Your bank did not fully reimburse you for that ATM surcharge.

Independent ATMs: ATMs found at convenience stores, gas stations, hotels, bars and other locations that aren't owned by a bank.

What Does NOT Qualify?

The settlement generally does not cover:

• Credit-card cash advances
• Prepaid-card transactions
• ATM transactions where your bank fully reimbursed the surcharge
• ATMs owned by a bank or financial institution

CLAIM DEADLINE: NOVEMBER 23, 2026

Don't guess whether your Kia qualifies. Check the VIN!

STEP 1: CHECK YOUR VIN

HOW MUCH COULD YOU GET?

For qualifying out-of-pocket repairs, reimbursement depends on the vehicle's mileage when the window-regulator failure occurred:

Under 35,000	100% — up to $400
35,001–55,000	80% — up to $320
55,001–75,000	60% — up to $240
75,001–125,000	45% — up to $180
125,001+	40% — up to $160

Up to four qualifying window-regulator replacements may be eligible per VIN, subject to the settlement's rules.
