The US Federal Trade Commission has filed a lawsuit against Uber, alleging the ride hailing and delivery company engaged in deceptive billing and cancellation practices.

The consumer protection watchdog accused Uber of charging customers for its Uber One subscription service without getting their consent and making it hard for users to cancel.

"The Trump-Vance FTC is fighting back on behalf of the American people," FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson, a Trump appointee, said in a statement.

An Uber spokesperson denied the allegations, and it was "disappointed" that the FTC chose to move forward with the lawsuit.
