Subject: Third Line Forcing Notification N99710 lodged by Telecom Plus t/a Surfers Phones and Gadgets [DLM=For-Official-Use-Only]

Security Classification: For Official Use Only

Dear Mr Di

I refer to the third line forcing notification lodged with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (the ACCC) by Telecom Plus trading as Surfers Phones and Gadgets on 12 June 2017. It has been allocated the registration number N99710. The notification and this email will be placed on the ACCC’s public register which is available on the ACCC’s website.

The protection from legal action provided by the notification commences automatically 14 days after the lodgement date, unless the ACCC objects.

On the basis of the information that you have provided, and that the parties will disclose all relevant terms and conditions to customers, the ACCC does not object to the notification at this time.

If at any time circumstances change, or the ACCC receives further information, such that it is satisfied that the public benefits from the third line forcing conduct do not outweigh the public detriments, the ACCC may remove the protection provided by the notification.

Please contact Kaitlin Hanrahan on 03 9290 1917 or by email to adjudication@accc.gov.au if you have any questions about this matter.
