Fibre back in focus for Australian consumers

Social media is alight with the concept of ‘fibre-maxxing’ – increasing fibre intake throughout the day.

While the terminology may be novel, the principle aligns with longstanding dietary recommendations encouraging greater consumption of fibre-rich foods. Dietitians, nutritionists, health bloggers and influencers are increasingly using social media to share practical advice, recipes, food swaps and meal planning strategies to help Australians meet their fibre needs.

Despite longstanding dietary guidance promoting the benefits of fibre, Australians’ fibre intake remains low. While adults should aim for 25 to 30 g of fibre per day, about 72% of Australians fail to meet these recommendations.....

Your mobile number is often the key to accessing important accounts and services.

That's why telcos are required to verify a customer's identity before transferring mobile numbers from other telco providers.

Following an ACMA investigation, Amaysim has paid a $138,600 penalty for failing to carry out these mandatory checks on multiple occasions.

We've also accepted a court-enforceable undertaking requiring Amaysim to strengthen its fraud prevention processes and regularly report to the ACMA.

In a separate investigation, the ACMA found Ezee Mobile failed to provide consumers with information about reporting suspected scams to police and government support services.

If you think you have been targeted by a phone scam:

🏦 Contact your bank and telco immediately
📲 Report the scam to Scamwatch
📧 Contact IDCARE, a free service that supports victims of identity theft

Additional support is available from Lifeline (13 11 14) and Beyond Blue (1300 224 636).

Ever felt pressured to buy before a sale ends so you don't miss out on a discount? ⏰

We've issued James Lane and Vuly with infringement notices after alleging they misled shoppers about how long some Black Friday sales would last.

We allege both retailers advertised that certain discounts would only be available for a limited time, when in fact the discounts continued after the advertised end date.

We're concerned about sales tactics that create a false sense of urgency and pressure shoppers into making rushed purchasing decisions. When businesses tell consumers a sale is ending, shoppers should be able to trust that claim when deciding whether to buy.

Bayswood Timber Wholesalers pays penalty for bushfire-suitable timber claims

A Victorian timber wholesaler and importer, Bayswood Timber Wholesalers Pty Ltd, has paid a penalty of $19,800 for making allegedly false or misleading statements about the suitability of its timber to be used in certain building applications in defined bushfire-prone areas.

The ACCC issued Bayswood with an infringement notice after investigating concerns that Bayswood marketed its Meranti timber product as having a certain density and being suitable for defined bushfire-prone areas.

In fact, the Meranti timber was insufficiently dense to meet the density requirements for the stated bushfire standard for some building applications.....
