FCC Investigation Into Verizon Wireless "Mystery Fees" Results in Record Settlement

News release: “Today, the Federal Communications Commission’s Enforcement Bureau announced an historic consent decree with Verizon Wireless — including a record $25 million payment to the U.S. Treasury — regarding “mystery fees” the company charged its customers over the last several years. The payment is the largest in FCC history and the settlement concludes the agency’s ten-month investigation into these overcharges. In addition to Verizon Wireless’s payment to the Treasury, the company will immediately refund a minimum of $52.8 million to approximately 15 million customers and ensure that consumers are no longer charged the mystery fees.”
