Telcos such as TPG Telecom have accused NBN Co of targeting their business customers. Their view is that NBN Co is meant to be a wholesaler and it should not be having direct contact with end users. The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission has observed that NBN Co is permitted to directly promote its services to end users, but that it is not permitted to recommend retail service providers to end users. The ACCC’s view has been backed up by the federal government.
