19 Dec 2023 Spark Networks Services GmbHDating site Elittárs: 169 million HUF for concealed restrictions €441,276
The operator of the dating site Elittárs concealed the fact that free registrations did not allow a genuine search for a partner (no profile pictures, no messages) and advertised user numbers that were not attainable for Hungarian customers. Following acknowledgement, the Gazdasági Versenyhivatal (Hungarian Competition Authority, GVH) imposed an almost halved fine of 169 million HUF.
Entry-level offers advertised as free must clearly state material restrictions.
