The Court held that charging the customers for each withdrawal while they already paid a charge for servicing their account was indeed a prohibited contractual clause. Such a policy, according to the Court, led to the bank obtaining undue profits and to decreasing of the costs of servicing customer accounts.

The customer was in this situation paying twice for the same service.
