WASHINGTON - Washington, D.C., Attorney General Karl Racine filed a lawsuit against AT&T Mobility National Accounts, alleging that the company overcharged the city millions of dollars for cellphone and internet services, Racine’s office said in a statement on Wednesday. Racine’s office said AT&T was contractually required to give the city the cheapest data and wireless phone services available.
“Instead, AT&T knowingly invoiced the District for features, add-ons, and other services it did not need, causing millions in improper charges that were paid for with taxpayer funds,” Racine’s office said.“We are in full compliance with our contract, and we look forward to vindicating ourselves in court,” added spokesman Jim Greer in an email statement.
The attorney general’s office said it was seeking three times the amount of any overcharges as well as penalties and the cost of bringing the case. It did not give a figure for this amount.Reporting by Diane Bartz and Chris Sanders; editing by Jonathan Oatis, Cynthia Osterman and Marguerita Choy
It's funny. My experience with billing at ATT (having worked in IT) is that they won't even be able to get the data to prove if they are right or wrong.
