Bern, Switzerland (GenevaLunch) – Swisscom has been handed a fine for CHF 219 million for alleged anti-competitive behaviour in its DSL business until 2007. The company says it will appeal the decision by the federal Competition Commission (ComCo) 5 November, arguing that Swiss consumers have ample choice in the supply of DSL service.

ComCo had argued that Swisscom, the dominant market operator and owner of most of the infrastructure, set the price it charged to its competitors too close to what it charged its customers, thus squeezing out its competitors.
