Teletext to take legal action against Directline over trademarks on Google

(22 May 2008)

Teletext Holidays has initiated legal proceedings against Directline Holidays for an alleged infringement of its trademark on Google's paid-for listings.

The High Court in London was notified today (Tues 21 May) by solicitors acting for Teletext Holidays Limited and Teletext Limited of a claim against “trade mark infringement and passing off” by Directline Holidays.

The move is a direct result of a recent threat by Teletext to those appearing on Google paid-for listings for the keyword “teletext”.
