Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
A letter an iTWire reader has sent to the ACCC concerning eBay continues on from page 3: “I am sure that the ACCC would see this as an unfortunate and undesirable outcome of Mr Smith's campaign of spreading misinformation.
“Therefore, as a matter of urgency, I respectfully request the ACCC to investigate this matter and to take prompt action in the form of the ACCC releasing a clear media statement of its position on stage 1 of the proposal and ensuring that eBay, and Mr Smith in particular, desists from perpetuating misinformation and issues a correcting media statement in which the wording has been agreed prior by the ACCC.
“Further, it would seem entirely appropriate for eBay to be required to promptly correct the various announcements and pop-up messages on its web site that presently serve to perpetuate the misinformation.
“eBay's continued and underhanded efforts to circumvent Australian consumer protection legislation are reprehensible and must be stopped.”
The letter then points to eBay Australia CEO Simon Smith’s comments in The Sheet and formally concludes.
So, it does not appear as if the eBay saga has ended yet, and what the ACCC does next will be most interesting indeed to see.
