    Unfair Commercial Practices Directive, Chapter 1, Article 1
  • Megjegyzés

    Handling fees assigned alongside interest in a consumer credit agreement must be examined with regards to whether they meet the dual requirement of proportionality and good faith.

  • Tények

    The plaintiff (debtor) signed a foreign currency-based credit agreement with the respondent (creditor) that was construed as a document testified to by a public notary. The credit agreement also included a separate percentage-based handling fee (alongside interest).

  • Jogi kérdés

    Whether the aforementioned handling fee was deceptive and misrepresented the actual interest, and thus constitute unfair commercial practice?

  • Határozat

    The Supreme Court ruled that the court of second instance did not examine the handling fee in sufficient detail, also citing ECJ practice in that the court should have examined the question from the perspective of good faith and proportionality, based on the actual interests used in the market at the time.
