RE.: Report of complaint in the case entitled “Association for the Defense of Users and Consumers a/Telecom Personal S.A. according to ordinary proceeding” (Expte 13397/2018).

 

Dear Sirs,

 

I am writing you in my capacity as Attorney in Fact of Telecom Argentina S.A. (“Telecom Argentina” or the “Company”), in order to inform that my represented, in its character of surviving company of the merger with Telecom Personal S.A., has answered the complaint indicated in the reference, initiated by the “Association for the Defense of Users and Consumers” (“ADUC”), in proceeding before the Lower National Court in Commercial No. 17, Secretariat No. 33.

 

The complaint filed by ADUC demands, in summary, in relation to the mobile telephony services: 1) the cessation of the delivery of invoices through electronic means; 2) the resumption of the delivery of invoices through physical support; 3) the reimbursement to each one of the clients of the amounts collected for the cost of remittance by physical support omitted, from the effective date of Law No. 27,250 and including interest; 4) the imposition of punitive damages.

 

The aforementioned claim is for an undetermined amount.

 

The Company has opposed the exception for lack of standing of the ADUC and has maintained the non-existence of an infringement of the Consumer Defense Law.

 

The Company, with the assistance of its legal counselors, will continue to exercise the defense of its interests within the framework of this action.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

 

 

 

 

Telecom Argentina S.A.

 

 

 

/s/ Andrea V. Cerdán

 

Attorney in Fact
