Russian law firm plans to sue Apple over Apple Pay removal
According to the latest report, the Russian law firm Chernyshov, Lukoyanov, and Partners said they will file a class-action lawsuit on behalf of Russians who believe that Apple’s closure of Apple Pay in the region caused “deliberate moral damage to people in the region”.
Users of Russian banks have reportedly been unable to use Apple Pay since February 2022, although a bug that initially allowed them to continue using the service with gift cards has also been fixed by Apple.
