FT - Sep 24 - Stelios Haji-Ioannou, the founder of the EasyJet empire, has threatened action against online dating group Easydate in a row over alleged trademark infringement. Easydate, which trades under brands including benaughty.com, and girlsdateforfree.com, has been using the name for the five years since it launched. Sir Stelios, who licenses the “easy” name to businesses including EasyJet, EasyCar and EasyHotel, claimed Easydate was trying to pass itself off as part of the “easy” brand and warned it to change the company name. Easydate said it had consulted lawyers but would seek to resolve the issue out of court. FULL ARTICLE @ FINANCIAL TIMES
