Apple is facing another lawsuit, and this time it’s a big collective one in the UK.
Filed on behalf of almost 20 million iPhone and iPad users, the case claims that Apple’s 30 percent commission charged on App Store purchases is “excessive and unlawful” and that the company’s practices breach competition law in the UK and Europe.
The case, if approved by the UK Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT), will seek damages of up to £1.5 billion, and will include around 19.6 million users eligible for compensation in the UK.
