UOKiK orders banks to settle accounts with clients

Seven Polish banks incorrectly reported changes in feesto their clients, antitrust watchdog UOKiK informed. The banks are Alior Bank, Bank Millennium, BZ WBK, Deutsche Bank, Idea Bank, Pekao SA, and Plus Bank. They will have to settle accounts with clients or make some services available for free. UOKiK questioned that the banks informed clients only through internal e-banking system. In such a system a bank can change a message or even delete it. In addition, the clients may not keep track of the messages regularly, the watchdog specified.
