Court tells Tele2 to pay TeliaSonera EUR107 million in termination fees

Stockholm’s District Court has ruled that Swedish telecoms group Tele2 must pay over EUR107 million (USD136 million), plus interest, to rival Nordic operator TeliaSonera, based on a decision of the country’s telecoms regulator, Post & Telestyrelsen (PTS), in 2001 concerning fees that Tele2 must pay for calls initiated in its network and terminated in TeliaSonera’s fixed and mobile networks.
