24 Jul 2026 Callcenter (anonymisiert)BNetzA: €34,327 fine on call centre, including for incomplete records of consent GermanyMarketing and consent €34,327

The Bundesnetzagentur (Federal Network Agency) imposed fines totalling 34,327 EUR on a call centre that mainly marketed telecoms products: 32,000 EUR for unlawful telephone advertising and 2,327 EUR because consents to sales calls had not been fully documented. The campaign continued despite the gaps and requests to stop calling were sometimes ignored; the company has appealed.

What organisations can take from it

Consents to telephone marketing must be fully documented – if the proof is missing, the campaign must not continue.
