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 ItalyInformation duties in online retail €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).

What organisations can take from it

Promised benefits must also be redeemable in organisational terms – sluggish processing can itself be unfair.

28 Jul 2026 TrenitaliaTrenitalia removes hurdles to refunds for delays following AGCM proceedings ItalyInformation duties in online retail 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. The AGCM accepted binding commitments: abolition of the confirmation requirement, strengthened refund channels, an information page on disruptions and an implementation report within three months; no infringement was found.

What organisations can take from it

Additional formalities before statutory refunds act as a hurdle and lead to proceedings.

23 Dec 2025 Ryanair DAC, Ryanair Holdings plcItaly: 255.8 million EUR against Ryanair for obstructing travel agencies ItalyAbuse of market power €255.8m

From April 2023 until at least April 2025, Ryanair obstructed travel agencies from buying Ryanair flights in combination with other services, for example through facial recognition procedures, account deletions, blocking of means of payment and restrictive partner agreements. The AGCM considered this to be an abuse of a dominant position and imposed fines of 255,761,692 EUR on a joint and several basis.

What organisations can take from it

Dominant providers must not use technical barriers to force sales partners and resellers out of the market.

13 Nov 2024 Foodinho S.r.l. (Glovo-Gruppe)Garante: 5 million EUR against Glovo subsidiary Foodinho over monitoring of riders ItalyEmployee data €5m

The delivery platform unlawfully processed data on more than 35,000 riders: facial recognition for identity verification, location tracking even outside working hours and automated assessments without human review. Foodinho had already been sanctioned with 2.6 million EUR in 2021; in addition to 5 million EUR, the Italian data protection authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) prohibited the biometric processing.

What organisations can take from it

Algorithmic management of workers requires transparency and human review, and must not include tracking outside working hours.
