Class action against DAZN: Over 4,500 consumers join vzbv lawsuit

The German consumer protection association vzbv has initiated a group lawsuit against streaming provider DAZN after several price increases that vzbv regards as unlawful. According to the organisation, more than 4,500 consumers have already joined the action.

Background

vzbv alleges that DAZN implemented multiple price hikes that may violate consumer rights. The large number of participants suggests many customers are unwilling to accept the increases without legal review.

What this means

• If you’ve been affected by DAZN’s price changes, consider whether you want to join consumer actions or seek advice from your local consumer centre.
• Keep records of billing and communications from DAZN.
