BALTIMORE (AP) - The Maryland Attorney General's Office says Verizon has agreed to pay $1.375 million in restitution to consumers over allegedly misleading offers on its FiOS services.
Douglas F. Gansler said in an email on Wednesday that the settlement is the result of allegations that Verizon misrepresented the cost consumers were charged to FiOS television, internet and phone services.
Maryland officials alleged there were either improperly charged termination fees or paid equipment fees not adequately disclosed in Verizon's advertising.
Verizon denies that it broke any Maryland laws.
