Consumer Courts have Jurisdiction to entertain the complaints against Mobile Phone Companies and Banks

There is no direct Judgment on this point. However In the Case of Allied Bank (2013 C L D 1133)  Hon’ble Lahore High Court, Lahore  has elaborated the word ‘service” and  has held that Account holder of a bank can lodge a claim against the bank before Consumer court because the banks are providing service to the public. In the light of this Judgment Consumer courts have also jurisdiction to entertain the complaints of consumers of mobile phone companies.
