Bamitaongwi launches user reporting scheme to curb exaggerated device subsidy ads

Bamitaongwi said on Wednesday it will introduce a user-participation reporting scheme from March 3 to reduce consumer harm from false or exaggerated handset subsidy ads and contract-related omissions. The scheme will coincide with Samsung Electronics\' Galaxy S26 launch. Reportable cases include subsidy payments that differ from ads, failure to provide contracts, missing entries on subsidies and conditions, inducement into high-priced plans, and mismatched dealer information. Confirmed reports can earn rewards of up to 200,000 won a year.
