ФАС проверяет застройщика ПИК из-за ограничений доступа интернет-провайдеров в жилые комплексы

The antimonopoly service will examine potential barriers for internet providers and residents' rights to choose an operator

The Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) has sent requests to internet providers to examine the existence of barriers when providers gain access to homes built by the PIK developer.

The agency will conduct an inspection in connection with numerous complaints and media reports about possible restrictions on access to communication services for residents of the company's residential complexes.

In accordance with current legislation, providers must be granted free access to apartment buildings, and charging fees for placing equipment in such buildings is not allowed. The FAS of Russia intends to study the information provided by providers and determine the reasons that could lead to restrictions on residents' rights to choose a communication operator.

The service will request information from regional housing inspections about the activities of management companies working in the PIK developer's residential complexes. If violations of antimonopoly legislation are detected, the agency will take the necessary response measures.

Providers whose data will be reviewed as part of the audit include companies such as ZAO "Intersvyaz", AO "ER-Telecom Holding", AO "Ufanet", PAO "Megafon", PAO "MTS", PAO "MGTS", AO "Company "Transtelecom"", PAO "Rostelecom", PAO "Tatelecom", PAO "Vimpelcom" and AO "Komkor".

The audit will cover 84 residential complexes of the PIK developer, located in Moscow, the Moscow Region, St. Petersburg, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Ulan-Ude, Blagoveshchensk, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Tyumen, Yaroslavl and Obninsk.

Earlier www1.ru reported that thousands of residents of PIK residential complexes cannot get home for the third day due to a failure in the provider's operation.
