Telecommunications provider Vodafone Hutchison Australia has admitted it made false and misleading statements about its third-party direct carrier billing service and will pay damages to affected customers, the ACCC says.

Vocus Group subsidiary Dodo Services has agreed to pay back up to $360,000 to 16,000 customers for claiming that its entry-level NBN broadband plans were "perfect for streaming".

The Australian consumer watchdog handed its digital platforms inquiry report to the Federal Government on 30 June. A week later, we have only bluster from the Treasurer, Josh Frydenberg, who has apparently put "Facebook and Google on notice over market power".
