OKLAHOMA CITY (Dec. 18, 2025) – Attorney General Gentner Drummond has filed a lawsuit against Uber Technologies LLC and Uber USA LLC, alleging they used a variety of deceptive and unfair practices in selling Uber One subscription services.
Drummond and a coalition of 21 other state attorneys general joined the lawsuit Monday, which was filed earlier by the Federal Trade Commission.
Drummond said Uber is accused of improperly using negative option marketing tactics when it offered free trial subscriptions – a practice that automatically charges consumers if they do not cancel a free trial. Uber allegedly misled consumers about the amounts they could save when subscribing to Uber One and made it extraordinarily difficult for consumers to cancel once enrolled. Uber is also accused of charging consumers before their billing date, including users whose free trial had not yet ended.
“Oklahoma law prohibits deceptive trade practices and I will always fight to hold accountable any company who breaks the law,” Drummond said. “Unless Uber is stopped in court, they are likely to continue cheating and harming hardworking Oklahomans.”
The lawsuit seeks restitution, as well as penalties, costs and an injunction against Uber for alleged violations of Oklahoma’s Consumer Protection Act and the U.S. Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act.
The lawsuit is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California with a trial currently scheduled for February 2027.
In addition to Oklahoma, the state coalition includes Maryland, Alabama, Arizona, Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin, as well as the District Attorney for Alameda County in California.
