The Commerce Commission has given carriers a year to lift their mobile coverage map game and wants simpler plan exits within six months. Customers are more satisfied with mobile than broadband. Amazon's New Zealand LEO plan emerges from stealth mode.

This is a blatant self promotion of the latest newsletter from my site. If that's not allowed, I'll stop, but I wanted to see if there is any interest in discussing the main topic in today's newsletter.

Usually the Commnerce Commission goes through a consulting or engagement stage before setting down rules. That appears to have been done, so the mobile companies have 12 months to fix their maps.

Is there a date set where they need to have them done by?

[-] billbennett@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago

There's no specific date in the Commerce Commission notification, it just says 12 months from today. I'd read that as by September 5, 2025.
