Two rural communications companies have filed a class action lawsuit, individually and on behalf of a class of similarly situated companies, against T-Mobile USA, Inc., Inteliquent, Inc., and 10 Doe Defendants. The Plaintiffs are seeking relief for injuries sustained from T-Mobile’s violations of the FCC’s rural call completion rules. The claims in the lawsuit are largely based on an April 2018 Consent Decree between T-Mobile and the FCC, in which T-Mobile admitted that it violated the FCC’s rules by inserting false ring tones into calls made to rural areas and failing to police the conduct of its intermediate providers.
