30 Jan 2026 Orange Polska S.A.Orange Polska: PLN 24.75m for a prepaid fee introduced mid-contract €5.88m
With effect from 4 April 2022, Orange Polska unilaterally introduced a fee for keeping the phone number active in existing prepaid contracts, although neither the law nor the contract allowed this change, and it failed to disclose the fee on starter packs and on its website. UOKiK classed both as unfair practices and imposed fines of PLN 17,325,000 and PLN 7,425,000, totalling PLN 24,750,000. The decision is not final.
New charges in ongoing consumer contracts need a clear statutory or contractual basis and must be disclosed in the offer itself.
