Italy’s competition regulator has fined H3G (3 Italia) US$2,12,580 over excessively complex and confusing contractual terms.
According to the watchdog, the restrictions or conditions of use for the services provided by the mobile operator are laid down in its contract in a way that is likely to confuse and mislead consumers.
The penalty was due to insufficient information provided to customers during the implementation of new tariff plans introduced from December 2007.
