Rocio Concha, Which? Director of Policy and Advocacy, said:
"We welcome the CMA’s clear findings. It is clear from those findings that the planned merger between Vodafone and Three could have a negative impact on millions of consumers.
"The two companies are close competitors so the merger is likely to reduce competitive pressure in the market and lead to higher prices.
“The regulator’s finding has set a high bar for the merger to proceed. It will be challenging for the regulator to design and enforce the necessary remedies to address the competition concerns."
