AT&T Mobility LLC will pay $105 million to settle charges it illegally billed third-party charges to consumers nationwide, federal authorities announced Wednesday. The company will pay $80 million to the Federal Trade Commission, which will be used to refund consumers. An additional $20 million in penalties and fees will be paid to all 50 states and the District of Columbia and a $5 million penalty will be paid to the Federal Communications Commission. The FTC alleges that AT&T billed its customers for hundreds of millions of dollars in charges originated by other companies, usually in amounts of $9.99 per month, for subscriptions for ringtones and text messages containing love tips, horoscopes and "fun facts." In its complaint, the FTC alleges that AT&T kept at least 35% of the charges it imposed on customers. The FTC's investigation into AT&T showed that the company received high volumes of consumer complaints related to the unauthorized third-party charges placed on consumer's phone bills.
