UK Apple iCloud class action case by Which? given green light
Summary
Which? has won permission from the Competition Appeal Tribunal to proceed with a class action against Apple, alleging that the company trapped UK iCloud users into its service and overcharged them; the claim covers about 40 million customers who used iCloud between November 2018 and June 2026 and were living in the UK on 8 June 2026, with each potentially receiving around £77 if successful, totaling up to £3 billion; Apple denies the allegations, saying users are not required to use iCloud and have alternatives, and the trial is not expected until October 2028.
