TINA.org Files Complaint over BeActive’s Deceptive FDA Marketing
And what it actually means to be FDA “cleared.”
Cricket’s 4G/LTE Services
December 2015: This action was voluntarily dismissed because the parties reached a settlement agreement. The terms of the agreement have not been disclosed.
May 2015: A false advertising class-action lawsuit was filed against Cricket Wireless, LLC. The complaint, which was transferred to federal court in June 2015, alleges that the company misleadingly marketed phones as “4G/LTE” (i.e., the phone would receive a 4G/LTE signal) when, in reality, the company did not have the capability to provide 4G/LTE services to a majority of customers. (Barraza et al v. Cricket Wireless, LLC, AT&T Inc., and LEAP Wireless International, Inc. and Does 1-100, Case No. 15-cv-2471, N. D. CA.)
