Endesa (Spanish energy supplier) has been fined with 20,000 euros after FACUA-Consumers in Action reported that they were harassing its member Maximo Pradera (a popular Spanish writer and TV host), treating him as a defaulter even when he wasn’t.

FACUA reported the company to the Spanish Data Protection Agency as it was demanding the payment of an inexistent debt using a management of payment company. This company was harassing the user through letters, phone calls and text messages, threatening him with the inclusion of his name in a credit black list.

Pradera cancelled his gas supplying contract with Endesa in May 2012, and paid the last monthly bill, charged with 875.49 euros, a month later.

After that, and without any other contact from Endes
