<\/p>\n

\tAT&T and Verizon agreed to pay a combined $116 million to settle a long-running lawsuit over claims they overcharged hundreds of government and education customers for mobile services.<\/p>\n

Under the terms of a deal approved by a county court judge in California, Verizon will pay $68 million and AT&T $48 million.<\/p>\n

While monies will go to nearly 300 state and local government organisations, 40 per cent is payable to OntheGo Wireless, a tariff analysis company which initated the lawsuit, under whistle-blowing laws.<\/p>\n

T-Mobile US and Sprint previously settled claims in the case for a combined $9.6 million.<\/p>\n

Including additional settlements from a related action in Nevada, the four operators agreed to pay a total of $138.7 million to end the litigation.<\/p>\n

In 2012, OnTheGo Wireless alleged the operators had failed to meet contractual requirements to identify optimal tariffs for government customers since 2005.<\/p>\n

It claimed the customers had suffered financial damages of at least $500 million as a result of the operators not offering the lowest price available on a quarterly basis.<\/p>\n\n
