The British High Court ruled that Electronic Data Systems (EDS), which became a unit of Hewlett-Packard in 2008, made false representations about a customer service technology contract with pay-TV operator British Sky Broadcasting Limited (BSkyB). EDS agreed in 2000 to provide customer service technology for BSkyB’s help centers. Two years later, BSkyB terminated the contract due to alleged poor performance and completed the project itself. BSkyB claimed it was fraudulently induced to award EDS the contract. In June 2010, it was reported that Hewlett-Packard agreed to pay £318 million (US$465 million) to settle the lawsuit.
