If you're a Verizon or Sprint cellphone customer, you may have a little money coming your way. Apparently customers were charged for services they didn't request, and Michigan's attorney general says about $538,000 needs to be refunded.

OK, so the check you get may only be (we're guessing here) $1.58, but hey...

Reports say millions of customers were charged a monthly fee of $9.99 for services like horoscopes or sports scores they didn't subscribe to. The practice is known as "cellphone cramming" or PSMS.

Michigan will get $307,998 as a part of the Verizon settlement, and $230,936 from Sprint. Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette announced in October that AT&T and T-Mobile will shell out a combined $195 million to Michigan customers.

You have until December 31, 2015 to submit your claim. Verizon Wireless customers click here to see if you're eligible; Sprint customers can use this link.
