The Economic Times: This order from the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), India’s equivalent of FCC of the US, is in the wake of compaints from cell phone subscribers that telcos are charging for value added services such as SMS and ringtones without their permission.
The order now instructs mobile operators to publish details of the special tariffs for value-added services. Further, it has barred operators from providing customers with a chargeable value-added service without the explicit consent of customers.
