    Unfair Commercial Practices Directive, Chapter 1, Article 2, (a) Unfair Contract Terms Directive, Article 3, 1.
  • Notă preliminară
    (1) The clause providing the defendant's possibility to unilaterally increase the facility's charges and interests is deemed unfair in the sense of Law 193/2000 on unfair terms in consumer contracts (which transposes Directive 93/13/EEC).
    (2) The plaintiff can terminate the facility agreement only provided that such facility agreement can no longer be effective after excluding the clauses which are deemed unfair.
  • Fapte
    The plaintiffs, as debtors, and the defendant, as creditor, have concluded a consumer facility agreement with a variable interest. The plaintiffs sued the defendant requesting the court to consider the clause regarding the defendant's possibility to increase the facility's charges and interests as being unfair and, as consequence, to remove the effects of such clause. The court of first instance admitted the plaintiffs' claims and thus, the defendant introduced an appeal request against this decision.
  • Chestiune juridică
    (1) May a clause providing the defendant's possibility to unilaterally increase the facility's charges and interests be construed as unfair in the sense of Law 193/2000 on unfair terms in consumer contracts (which transposes Directive 93/13/EEC)?
    (2) Is the plaintiff entitled to the termination of the consumer facility agreement in accordance with the provisions of the Law 193/2000 following the exclusion of the clause which was deemed unfair?

  • Hotărârea

    The court stated that the clause comprised in a consumer facility agreement which provides the defendant's possibility to unilaterally increase the facility's charges and interests is deemed to be unfair.
    As a consequence, the unfair clause shall be excluded and the consumer facility agreement shall continue to be effective without this clause. Also, the plaintiffs are not entitled to terminate the facility agreement if it can still be effective after removing the clauses deemed unfair.
