Grubhub ordered to pay $3.5 million to settle Washington DC deceptive practices lawsuit
that his office has reached an agreement with the food delivery service"for charging customers hidden fees and using deceptive marketing techniques." If you'll recall, his office sued the company earlier this year, accusing it of charging hidden fees and misrepresenting Grubhub+ subscription's offer of"unlimited free delivery," since customers still have to pay a service fee.
The DC Attorney General's office also accused the company of listing 1,000 restaurants in the area without their permission by using numbers that route to Grubhub workers or creating websites without the eateries' consent. A previousreport said the company had already ended those practices.
