ACCC fines NBN provider MyRepublic for ads about internet speeds

National Broadband Network (NBN) provider MyRepublic has paid $25,200 in penalties for alleged false or misleading representations in its advertisements.

The consumer watchdog, the ACCC, said the brand’s fine print disclaimers about the speeds it could provide were ineffective, not prominent and did not provide clear information.
