Participation Solidarity “Three mobile carriers forced to join 5G… Report to the Fair Trade Commission”

The Participating Solidarity reported to the Fair Trade Commission the act of compelling three mobile communication companies to join the latest terminal 5G plan.

The Participation Solidarity announced on the 11th, “Three mobile operators have commercialized 5G services based on their market dominant position with a total market share of 90%, and have released the latest high-end terminals exclusively for 5G and have forced them to sign up for a plan.”

The Participation Solidarity argued, “This behavior of the three mobile operators corresponds to the act of controlling the sale of unreasonable products that abused their market dominant position, the act of hindering the interests of consumers, and the unfair joint act.”

He said, “If you sign up on a self-sufficient basis from August of last year, it is not technically impossible to open LTE with the latest handset,” he said. “Three mobile operators are forcing 5G, which has problems of communication instability and high cost because of profits.”

The Participation Solidarity demanded ▲ systematic compensation for 5G user damage ▲ provision of sufficient data for mid-to-low price 5G rates of 20,000 to 50,000 won ▲ establishment of a transparent distribution structure from the three mobile carriers.

Meanwhile, according to the results of a survey released by the Ministry of Science and ICT last month, only about 60% of the nationwide multi-use facilities can use 5G.
