"The consumer watchdog, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) is suing Optus alleging it engaged in unconscionable conduct when selling phone products to vulnerable customers.

Many were First Nations customers from remote and regional areas, as well as customers living with disabilities or in disadvantage. 

The ACCC claims Optus sold goods and services to hundreds of consumers that they “often did not want or need”.

The telecommunications company is accused of then pursuing consumers for debts that resulted from those sales."

"Optus says it has sacked staff after the Australian consumer watchdog launched a federal court case alleging the telco had sold hundreds of vulnerable consumers – including many First Nations customers – phones and plans they could not afford.

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission alleged the telco had engaged in unconscionable conduct, in contravention of the Australian Consumer Law, related to its dealing with 429 customers – 363 of which were served at Optus’s Darwin stores."
