It ordered regular compliance monitoring and notification to the Polish bank where systems needed reconfiguration. The native overview rounds to whole lei.

What happened
After banking contracts and accounts were closed, Alior continued monitoring former customers and sending email and SMS about operations. Systems in Poland sent messages according to requirements supplied by the Romanian branch, using contact data for a purpose incompatible with the original collection.
Who was affected

What the authority found
Following consultation with the Polish authority, ANSPDCP imposed RON 84,491.70, expressly stated as EUR 17,000, on Alior Bank through its Romanian branch under Article 5(1)(a) and (b) and Article 6.
