ACN misattribution corrected: an earlier version cited CONNECTED GROUP AUSTRALIA PTY LIMITED (ABN 72 112 124 231, ACN 112 124 231). That entity trades as 'Connected Switchgear'/'Connected Cable' (electrical products) and is an unrelated name collision; the telco/ISP's actual entity is CONNECTED AUSTRALIA PTY LTD (ACN 169 830 451), which holds the 'Connected Australia' and 'Lemonade Broadband' business names. |
