AT&T to pay USD105m for illegal mobile charges
(MENAFN) Official data showed that AT&T will pay USD105 million to settle investigations that it tacked on charges to mobile phone bills for unauthorized third-party services, APF reported.
The US mobile giant will settle investigation by the US Federal Trade Commission, Federal Communications Commission and the attorneys general for US states, the company said.
The settlement is the largest for so-called "cramming," a practice that adds charges to mobile phone bills in a manner that deceives consumers and the seventh brought by the FTC on cramming.
"AT&T agreed to the fine to resolve allegations that it billed for monthly subscriptions that consumers never authorized and didn't want," FTC chairwoman said in a statement.
