Show Notes

The Commerce Commission are taking action against One NZ over their ‘100% mobile coverage’ plan and Starlink rollout. 

The watchdog believes the advertising campaign breached the Fair Trading Act, saying customers were under the impression that coverage would include data and voice calling – not a text only service. 

Tech commentator and Gorilla Tech CEO, Paul Spain tells Heather du Plessis-Allan the case seems over the top, given the CommComm hasn’t chased other companies whose products have not met all claims.
