The two companies have agreed to settle complaints that they charged customers for services they did not order, PIX11 reported.
It's called "cramming" and the two companies have to pay a combined $158million dollar settlement over it, according to The Detroit Free Press.
As WTIC reported, Sprint and Verizon partnered with vendors that sold premium text services that delivered horoscopes, trivia and scores. The problem is that some customers who had not signed up for the service were being billed the nearly $10 monthly charge.
