Hungary’s National Media and Infocommunications Authority (NMHH) has, under its oversight remit, imposed a HUF 80 million fine on Invitel Zrt (Invitel) for its infringement of regulations governing electronic communications. Specifically, for unlawfully making unilateral amendments to individual subscription agreements. As well, the Authority has meted out a HUF 10 million fine on UPC Hungary Kft. (UPC) for its failure, for over a year, to amend its unlawful Terms of Service (TOS). This despite the Authority’s prior binding ruling to this effect, an infraction seriously detrimental to all its subscribers’ interests.
