BA & Virgin to refund £4 to £20

At last news about the price "fixing" article in The Times http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/transport/article4272512.ece

Millions of Britons who flew across the Atlantic between two and four years ago are being invited to claim a share of more than £70 million that has been ordered to be handed over to them.
An advertising campaign begins tomorrow in six Sunday national newspapers advising people who flew on routes with British Airways and Virgin Atlantic between August 2004 and March 2006 to their right to a refund. Over the following two weeks it will extend to daily newspapers, magazines and travel websites. To add to the airlines’ embarrassment, they will also be obliged to carry the adverts in their in-flight publications.
Although the deal was struck by American lawyers in an American court, the bulk of the settlement has been reserved for British passengers – £73.5 million. That equates to a refund of between £4 and £20 for each return ticket and up to £10 for a one-way ticket. For frequent flyers and corporate customers, it could amount to hundreds of pounds.

I filled in a form about this quite a while ago, when Martin highlighted it. I haven't heard anything more.
Anyone know when the payouts might be starting??

Sorry, just read the article October onwards if judge approves & they have until 2012 to pay out

Hi,

Does anyone have an update on this? Last February I sent an e mail to a link available via Money Saving Expert, but have never had any response.

Has anyone been compensated or had any information sent to them?

Regards,
