Vodafone also holds that the Determination of 30 October 2014 indicates different treatment of Vodafone compared to other operators which adopted similar measures some time ago and which were not censored by the Regulator.
Once again, Vodafone is not correct.
The Regulator has not been aware of any conduct engaged in by any other company providing electronic communications services which is similar in nature to the introduction of this measure without prior notice being given as required by law, as in this case.
In its comments, Vodafone also failed to identify the cases which it claims to be aware of and which, in its view, would call for a similar response from ICP-ANACOM.
The rulings laid down in the Determinations of 21 October 2014, which approved the rules governing end-user access to numbers from the Plano Nacional de Numeração (National Numbering Plan), apply to all undertakings which offer electronic communications networks and services.
Therefore, there is no evidence to support the conclusion that the ruling laid down in the Determination of 30 October 2014 has violated the principle of equality.
