Frontier agrees to pay $69M over data speed advertising
The lawsuit, filed by the FTC and counties of LA and Riverside, alleged that digital subscriber line (DSL) internet speeds were capped and lower than advertised in several locations.
Frontier Communications Corp. agreed to pay $69 million to resolve claims brought by the Federal Trade Commission and the counties of Riverside and Los Angeles that the telecommunications giant falsely advertised its internet speeds.
The case was prosecuted in Riverside County by Deputy District Attorney Evan Goldsmith of the Consumer Protection Team and now goes before a U.S. District judge for approval of the settlement.
