The Commerce Commission has laid 27 charges under the Fair Trading Act against Vodafone New Zealand Limited (Vodafone) for engaging in false and misleading conduct in relation to its FibreX broadband service. In November 2018 Vodafone pleaded guilty to 9 charges alleging that its website misled consumers about the options of broadband services available at their addresses. The remaining charges relating to the advertising of Vodafone’s FibreX broadband service are still before the Court.
