02What happened, and where it sits
Join the Triboo Limited received an ICO enforcement notice on 14 April 2023. The Commissioner acted under the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, citing PECR regulation 20 and PECR regulation 22. An order to act. An enforcement notice requires the organisation to take, or stop taking, specified steps by a deadline, and failure to comply is itself an offence. PECR is a separate instrument from the UK GDPR, so this is an ICO penalty under the marketing rules and not a GDPR fine.
No sum is attached to this action. Enforcement notices are corrective, not financial, which is why Join the Triboo Limited appears on the register without a figure beside it.
The notice puts numbers on the contravention: 244 marketing calls or messages. Those figures are the ICO's, taken from the published notice for this action.
Join the Triboo Limited is filed under Marketing, which accounts for 28 of the 216 actions on the register (13%). In 2023 the ICO published 80 enforcement actions in total, 21 of them enforcement notices. 87 actions on the register name PECR 2003.
Counted from the oldest entry forward, this is the 46th of 216 actions on the register and the 3rd of 28 in Marketing. Join the Triboo Limited appears 2 times on this register: enforcement notice on 14 April 2023 and monetary penalty on 14 April 2023. The ICO publishes one document for this action, 212 KB in total: "Join-the-Triboo-Limited-Enforcement-Notice-PECR-Reg-22". It is the authority for everything on this page.
03The ICO's own account
Between 1 August 2019 and 19 August 2020, a confirmed total of 107 million direct marketing messages were sent by Join the Triboo Limited and from those messages 437,324 were received by distinct individuals. This means that each individual received on average 244 emails during the relevant period and that those messages contained direct marketing material for which subscribers had not provided valid consent.
The law behind this action
PECR 2003
PECR governs electronic marketing, cookies and communications-service security. It is a separate instrument from the UK GDPR: an action taken under PECR is not a GDPR fine, and the register pages here never describe it as one.
What a enforcement notice does
An order to act. An enforcement notice requires the organisation to take, or stop taking, specified steps by a deadline, and failure to comply is itself an offence.

GDPRFine.com is an independent tracker of ICO enforcement. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the Information Commissioner's Office, and it uses no ICO branding. Where the ICO's own wording is reproduced it is quoted and attributed; everything else on these pages is our own summary of the published record.
The ICO's register held 222 entries on that date. 6 of them are prosecutions of named individuals, with ages and home towns in the ICO's own summary. This tracker indexes organisations, so those 6 are excluded and every count on these pages is out of 216. They remain on the ICO's own register.
An entry says what the Commissioner did on the date shown. It is not a statement about the organisation today, and the ICO can amend or remove a register entry at any time. Amounts and provisions are as published by the ICO; where the published notice does not state a figure or name a provision, these pages say so rather than filling the gap.
