23 Mar 2026 Revolut Group Holdings Ltd, Revolut Bank UAB, Revolut Securities Europe UABAGCM fines Revolut €11.5m over misleading investment, account and IBAN information ItalyMisleading advertising and pricing €11.5m

The AGCM objected to three unfair commercial practices by Revolut: unclear information that investors sometimes acquire only fractional shares, together with misleading "0% commission" advertising; unclear information on account blocks and their aggressive implementation without adequate prior notice or support; and missing information on the requirements and time needed to obtain an Italian IBAN. Fines of 5,000,000 EUR against Revolut Group Holdings Ltd and Revolut Securities Europe UAB, and of 5,000,000 and 1,500,000 EUR against Revolut Group Holdings Ltd and Revolut Bank UAB, each jointly and severally, were imposed, totalling 11,500,000 EUR.

What organisations can take from it

Account blocks need transparent criteria, timely information and a reachable route to resolve them, and "0% commission" must not be advertised where other costs apply.
