Zurich Court Rules Against Sunrise Cancellation Practices

developing SRF 1 Switzerland Zurich 15d11d Impact 5

A Swiss court has ruled against the city of Zurich's 'Kaskadenmodell' security model, which aimed to close entire sections of the city. The ruling followed an incident where police were present as Basler fans boarded extra trains, and stones were thrown. A new court ruling has addressed a seven-year dispute regarding how the telecommunications provider Sunrise handles contract terminations. The provider had previously insisted that written terminations via postal mail were not acceptable. A court has ruled that Sunrise cannot prohibit customers from canceling contracts in writing. The ruling follows a seven-year dispute where the company's terms and conditions stated that written cancellations were not accepted. Customers may continue to submit written cancellations despite the company's previous stance.

The ruling follows a seven-year dispute where the company's terms and conditions stated that written cancellations were not accepted. Customers may continue to submit written cancellations despite the company's previous stance. The District Court of Zurich ruled that Sunrise's practice of refusing written contract cancellations is unlawful. The court determined that clauses in the company's general terms and conditions preventing customers from canceling in writing violate the law and must be removed. Consumer protection groups and other plaintiffs have challenged these practices for seven years. The court described the restriction on customers' ability to cancel via mail or letter as offensive. According to the ruling, Sunrise must allow customers to cancel via email or letter.

“das sogenannte Kaskadenmodell vor. Jetzt hat er bei einem Zürcher gerichtet ... ganze Stee-Korfes zu sperren. Die Sperrung haben nur wenig beigetragen zu mehr Sicherheit. Gleichzeitig würden Grundrechte wie die Versammlungsfreiheit eingeschränkt. Rechtskräftig ist das Urteil nicht. Es kann weitergezogen werden ans Bundesgericht. Dennoch ist es ein Zwischensieg für den FC Zürich und eine empfindliche Niederlage für die Stadt und fürs Kaskadenmodell, welches die KKJPD, die kantonalen Justiz- und Polizeidirektorinnen und Direktoren vor zwei Jahren einführten. Diese S***!”
