UK mobile providers face £3.2B lawsuit over post-contract overcharges, following tribunal approval of claims after Oct. 2015.
UK mobile providers Vodafone, EE, O2, and Three UK face a £3.2 billion class-action lawsuit over claims they overcharged customers after contract end dates, following a tribunal’s decision to allow post-October 2015 claims to proceed.
The case, led by consumer advocate Justin Gutmann, alleges customers were charged for phones they already owned, a practice called a “loyal penalty.” Claims before October 2015 were dismissed due to time limits.
The networks deny the allegations, with EE vowing to defend the claims, O2 welcoming the narrowed scope, and Vodafone and Three not commenting.
The case proceeds to trial, potentially impacting industry billing practices.
