Accordingly, the company contended that it had undervalued its services to Lyca Cellular. The court filing states that Lycamobile may have had knowledge or discovered that invoices understated subscriber data usage, based on available information and perception. This discrepancy persisted for over a year before August 2022, when all subscribers were accurately accounted for in ‘s billing records, with corresponding invoices to Lyca Cellular reflecting actual data consumption by its subscribers.
Despite owing higher-than-usual charges, Lyca Cellular declined to settle the outstanding balance and instead insisted on receiving a further deposit before proceeding with services. Lyca Cellular failed to settle outstanding invoices for the quarters of September, October, November, and December in 2022, respectively. The dispute ultimately escalated to a courtroom showdown, with Lyca Cellular asserting that Reliance Communications failed to uphold the terms of their Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) agreement. The Lyca Group, in a submission filed with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), alleges that AT&T is denying it access to crucial expertise related to its US operations. The company’s acquisition of Mint Cellular for $1.35 billion was met with a protest from one of its competitors, which subsequently lodged a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) urging it to block the deal.
