Sixty-six percent of organisations have plans to deploy 5G by 2020, but according to a new report users adopting 5G face the lack of readiness of telecommunications providers, with their 5G networks not available or capable enough for the needs of organisations.

Telecommunications consumer interest lobby group the Australian Communications Consumer Action Network (ACCAN) says the enforcement of new complaint handling rules for telcos will drive better conduct by the telco industry, and sends a clear warning to the industry that they must take their obligations seriously.

Communications alliance Commpete has claimed the proposed merger between Vodafone Hutchison Australia and TPG Telecom is a threat to competition between companies offering mobile services and welcomed the move by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission to scrutinise the deal.
