Verizon Wireless Loses Appeal Against Mobile Data Roaming Regulations [telecom]

Dec 23, 2012 0 Replies

Verizon Wireless has lost an attempt to block a regulatory rule requiring it to offer wholesale mobile data roaming rates to other mobile networks.



The regulator, the FCC already required such facilities for voice services, but last year expanded that to include mobile data services as well. Verizon Wireless sued to block the change.



A US Appeals Court upheld the regulators change, rejecting the mobile networks claim that it amounted to "an unfair government seizure".
