  • The minimum limit is reduced, that the provider is obliged, upon the subscriber's order, to stop the provision of services, when it finds that the subscriber's charge exceeds this limit. The new limit is set at 100 euros for a monthly billing cycle and 200 euros for a bi-monthly billing cycle, from 150 euros and 300 euros respectively.
  • If the subscriber receives a package of services from a provider and wants to terminate a service of the package before the expiration of the agreed duration of the contract, due to non-compliance with the contract or inability to provide the service, then he can terminate all services of the package without compensation .
