    >The National Authority for Consumer Protection (ANPC) announced on Friday that Raiffeisen Bank has started refunding amounts to aggrieved customers, and so far €13.4 million out of a total of almost €22 million has been refunded. The ANPC said in a press release on Friday that following the final decision of the High Court of Cassation and Justice, which upheld Order No. 837/20.10.2017, issued by the President of the National Authority for Consumer Protection in relation to unfair commercial practices of Raiffeisen Bank SA, aimed at harming the financial interests of consumers, from 2006-2009, the bank has begun returning the amounts set by the Order to the consumers concerned.

    >”I do not know when and if the Romanian authorities will ever be guilty of any abuse against Austrian companies. When an economic operator is not satisfied with the visits of the Romanian state representatives, he always accuses abuses, without being able to support them in any way. However, as the courts have also validated, the visit by the commissioners of the National Authority for Consumer Protection revealed something else entirely. The victims seem to be the more than 9,000 consumers who were charged more money than was fair. It’s like Radio Yerevan, in the joke where not he, but she, gave, but stole. This situation shows that the economic operator is the one who picked the consumers’ pockets and now he has to give them their money back”, said ANPC President Horia Constantinescu.
