AT&T WITHDRAWS T-MOBILE MERGER APPLICATION FROM FCC


The Federal Communications Commission on Tuesday granted AT&T permission to withdraw its application to purchase T-Mobile USA for $39 billion. Two public policy groups, Public Knowledge and Media Access Project asked the FCC to publish its documents relating to the deal and to prevent AT&T from rescinding its application, although it appears it’s too late for that to happen. AT&T announced its intention to withdraw its application to purchase T-Mobile USA on November 24th when it explained that it was going to instead focus on a lawsuit brought against it by the Department of Justice. That case is expected to kick off in February. Should AT&T win, it is likely the wireless carrier will re-file its application with the FCC and begin its acquisition process all over again.

  1. It is sad that the FCC is so corrupt that they will not allow the public documents to be publc. Hence The FCC promotes consumer fraud.

  2. At&t and T Mobile are all about fraud and the government does not have the backbone to stop them. Remember that at the polls.
