So lets see them wriggle out of this one. Nice to see the CC take the right view on things like this.

I don't necessarily agree that Vodafone are doing anything wrong. What they are doing is very stupid since they are essentially saying that they're not interested in 70% of Telecom's customer base but as to whether they are doing anything wrong legally? I don't think so.  Portability is all about allowing you to move your number from one carrier to another, it's not about guaranteeing you can get X plan once you do move.

It's very likely this is a result of Vodafone's over budget and overdue billing system - I don't know why Vodafone just aren't open and admit this is the cause.

It says that you are not supposed to have different levels of service for people that have moved a number vs those that have your native numbers. Telecom have a list of exemptions they had to apply for for their old exchanges, vodafone have not.
