    Three telcos have been fined more than 120-thousand dollars for over-charging customers

    Three telcos have been fined more than 120-thousand dollars for over-charging customers

    13 February 2020
    Slingshot, Flip Services and Orcon, which are owned by Vocus, continued to charge about six thousand people more than a month after they'd finished their contract.

    They overpaid about 132-thousand dollars.

    Auckland District Court Judge Kevin Glubb says it wasn't deliberate - but very careless.
