AT&T Inc., Comcast Corp. and T-Mobile US Inc. are facing questions from U.S. regulators about offering customers free data for viewing Web videos, a feature that raises concerns about equal treatment of Internet content.

The Federal Communications Commission sent letters to the three carriers “asking them to come in and have a discussion with us about some of the innovative things they are doing,” Chairman Tom Wheeler said Thursday speaking at a Washington news conference.
