The Pittsburgh-based company did not admit any wrongdoing by settling the lawsuit, but did agree to pay. Back in 2015, it was reported customers who took part in the settlement would get either $25 in cash or $50 worth of tuna fish.

Now four years later, after a lot of legal action back and forth over the fine print in the settlement, those that are part of the class action settlement will only get $2.38, if they chose the cash option, or $5.03 in coupons to buy Starkist tuna.

Coupons will arrive in the mail.

Many are asking why they are getting so much less than originally reported, and that’s because more than 2.5 million people signed up for payment, which is 12 times more than Starkist anticipated.
