4 Aug 2026 Lime Technology S.r.l., EmTransit S.r.l. (Dott), Bird Rides Italy S.r.l.Rome: 2.675 million EUR against e-scooter and e-bike sharing providers over blocked free rides €2.68m
The three sharing providers made it difficult for holders of a Metrebus annual pass to access the free-ride passes promised when the concessions were awarded, through inadequate organisation, cumbersome activation and long waiting times, which shortened the usable time; Bird also deactivated accounts without prior notice. The AGCM imposed fines totalling 2.675 million EUR in three proceedings (Lime 1.4 million, Dott 525,000, Bird 750,000 EUR).
Promised benefits must also be redeemable in organisational terms – sluggish processing can itself be unfair.

29 Jul 2026 AvisAvis: maximum fine of 1 million EUR for handling fee on traffic fines €1m
The car rental company charged customers an "administration fee" of 33.88 to 45 EUR when a rental car incurred a traffic offence – even though naming the driver is a statutory obligation of the rental company. Spain's Ministry of Social Rights, Consumer Affairs and 2030 Agenda classified this as a very serious infringement and imposed the maximum fine of 1 million EUR; a court had already declared the clause void in 2020.
No additional fee may be charged for fulfilling statutory obligations – least of all after a court has prohibited the clause.

28 Jul 2026 TrenitaliaTrenitalia removes hurdles to refunds for delays following AGCM proceedings Order
For refunds in the event of delays of 60 minutes or more or cancellations, Trenitalia required prior written confirmation from the call centre or ticket office.
