Symposium: "Consumer Credit and English Schools Crisis. 2003"




Agenda

It can be said that all a generation of consumers is suffering the severity of a true financial fraud. The contracting of a language course were sometimes bound with a financial contract. This kind of operations profit financial institutions in an important way
. Other ways of payments, as the instalments, with or without extra charge have gone far away, since these were contracted with the company that rendered the service. The financial institutions realised that, taking advantage of the confusing regulation regarding consumer credit, the chance to market some credit in which they lost all unpayment possibility, as the client have to pay always, having got or not the service or product that is financed.

In this research, we are going to intend to throw light on some of the questions that more affect and worry to who contract a consumer credit. Through a rigorous analysis of the Spanish and European regulations, sentences and reports, ADICAE sets at the disposal of all consumer this fundamental Dossier in order to understand the current issue of consumer credit.
