Mr Merricks

“Mr Merricks said the resolution “finally opens the way for me to prepare for distribution of at least £100m to consumers.””

“Mr Merricks first launched the legal action in 2016, alleging that millions of shoppers were charged unfair fees on transactions over a 16‑year period between May 1992 and June 2008.”

“Most people who are now over 34 and who shopped in supermarkets between May 1992 and June 2008 will be eligible to claim, regardless of whether they ever had a Mastercard," Mr Merricks said.”

“Mr Merricks said he is also exploring an option allowing claimants to donate their compensation to national charities.”
