This one goes back a little ways, but a U.S. District Court in Seattle has now given the go ahead to a class action lawsuit brought by former AT&T Wireless subscribers, who have complained that their service went downhill after the company was bought by Cingular and ultimately became the new AT&T. They’re also not too happy that they were forced to pay to get new Cingular phones, and they’re now asking that AT&T pay back all those extra charges, plus the usual damages, of course. For its part, AT&T isn’t saying anything more than that it “respectfully” disagrees with the court’s decision, and that it’s now studying the ruling and considering its options.
