UOKiK said on Monday that T-Mobile Polska's slogan "1200 GB free
for a year" was misleading as 100 GB Internet packages are
granted each month, for a maximum of 12 months, as long as the
consumer renews the offer periodically at a cost of at least 35
zlotys ($7.99).
"After reading the advertisement, the consumer should have a
general, but realistic, idea of the presented offer," the head
of UOKiK Tomasz Chrostny said in a statement.
"The T-Mobile promotional slogan may suggest receiving a
one-time data package of 1200 GB, and not a dozen or so smaller
packages, provided that the fee is paid periodically."
T-Mobile Polska did not immediately respond to an e-mailed
request for comment.
