Ofcom fines Vodafone GBP 4.6 mln after billing problems
2016-10-26 09:04:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Ofcom said Vodafone must pay a total of GBP 4.62 million for breaching consumer protection rules in a "serious and sustained" manner. The UK regulator said the imposition follows the completion of two investigations, resulting in two penalties. In the first investigation, Ofcom found that Vodafone took money from pay-as-you go customers, without providing a service in return. This occurred when the operator moved customers to a new billing service. In the second investigation, Ofcom found flaws in Vodafone's complaints handling procedure, including mis-selling and inaccurate billing.

T-Mobile to pay USD 48 mln fine over 'unlimited' data plans
2016-10-20 09:31:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The Federal Communications Commission has announced a settlement with T-Mobile US over the "inadequate disclosures" of its data plans, which were throttled at times of high congestion even though they were sold as unlimited. The FCC said the operator has agreed to pay a total of USD 48 million after its investigation found that "company policy allows it to slow down data speeds when T-Mobile or MetroPCS customers on so-called 'unlimited' plans exceed a monthly data threshold." The FCC added that: "Company advertisements and other disclosures may have led unlimited data plan customers to expect that they were buying better and faster service than what they received."
