Multi billion dollar cellphone suit progresses

On Thursday the Supreme Court of Canada decided to let the $19 billion law suit against Canadian cellphone companies progress.

According to the Gazette the class action suit which began in 2004 accused the companies of charging too much for system access fees.

Companies such as BCE Inc, Rogers Communications Inc, Telus Corp, and Bell Aliant Inc are being sued.

While other cellphone companies have blocked out system access fees, the suit is attempting to recapture fees paid two decades ago.
