TP fined zł.75 million

The fine was levied after UOKiK found TP guilty of using "unfair practices" in the field of internet services and "discriminating [against] competitors."

According to a statement released by UOKiK, TP restricted data transmission by "programming its appliances in a way that hindered the other operators' access to the network."

The zł.75-million fine is the largest imposed so far by the watchdog and its decision, announced in late December, took effect immediately. TP may appeal the fine.

TP has also had trouble with the Office for Electronic Communication (UKE). In February, UKE fined it over zł.330 million for price inflation, although the European Commission later ruled against the decision.
