Verizon Wireless To Issue $90 Million In Refunds

Posted by samzenpus on from the have-some-cash dept.

tekgoblin writes "Verizon Wireless had somehow been charging customers extra money on their bills for data that they actually hadn't been using. Approximately 15 million customers were affected by the billing error. According to BGR the FCC had been pressuring Verizon to respond to the hundreds of complaints that had been piling up. So Verizon's answer was to refund all of the overcharged money as soon as possible."

    But but but the FCC is a government agency! They can't possibly do anything right! The free market should have sorted everything out!
