8 Apr 2026 Alquiler Seguro, S.A.U.Consumer ministry: €3.6m fine on Alquiler Seguro over charges imposed on tenants SpainConsumer protection and online retail €3.6m

The Ministerio de Derechos Sociales, Consumo y Agenda 2030 (Spanish Ministry of Social Rights, Consumer Affairs and 2030 Agenda) imposed fines totalling 3,600,902 EUR (1,000,000, 990,900, three times 500,000, 100,001 and 10,001 EUR) on the rental agency Alquiler Seguro for six very serious and one serious breach of tenants' consumer rights. Among other things, the company had required tenants to pay for a tenant service as management and contract costs, to take out home insurance for the landlord's benefit and to bear debt collection and court costs, used a clause allowing reporting to debtor registers and excluded the right of withdrawal. The clauses must be removed and the sanction published.

What organisations can take from it

Agents must not pass management and signing costs on to tenants through mandatory services or add-on contracts; standard clauses in tenancy agreements should be reviewed regularly.
