Sony, one of the most important figures in the game world, has become one of the leading companies in console games with the PlayStation series. A major accusation was made against the company, which also offers the PlayStation Store service for console games.
UK says Sony defrauded users of £5bn
Sony provides its PlayStation service in many parts of the world. The company uses its own store to increase this service experience. However, the UK has brought heavy accusations to the company for its policy in its store.
Another game exclusive to PlayStation is becoming a movie!
The movie Days Gone is getting real. According to new allegations, Sony Pictures is meeting with the producer and cast team for the movie Days Gone.
According to the accusation led by the former general manager of England, Alex Neill, Sony is defrauding people with its PlayStation Store service. The file prepared with this claim was submitted to the Competition Court of Appeal last week. Neill states that consumers are being charged as much as £5bn more. In addition, he included the following sentences:
With this legal action, I defend the rights of millions of UK people who have been unwittingly overcharged. We believe Sony has abused its position and defrauded its customers. The company is now in the UK TV being dishonest and bullying towards many vulnerable people.
The UK claims Sony is imposing unfair terms and conditions on game developers and publishers. Additionally, the company is accused of abusing its market power by forcing it to raise prices for consumers. However, the company was exposed to similar accusations in the USA and the case was dismissed.
