Substitute approved states that the exercise of the right to regret not prevent the fine collection stipulated in the contract
The Consumer Defense Commission approved a proposal providing for the return of amounts paid or advanced to the supplier if the consumer give up hiring continued services within seven days.
The proposal amends the Consumer Defense Code (Law 8.078 / 90), which already provides for the right of cancellation within seven days, but does not provide for the return of the amounts already paid in continued provision contracts.
Herculano Passos makes clear in its opinion that will not be returned the amounts paid for services already rendered
The approved text is the rapporteur's substitute, deputy Herculano Steps (PSD-SP), the Draft Law 402/15 by Mr Lucas Vergilio (SD-GO). The substitute provides that the exercise of the right to regret not prevent the fine collection stipulated in the contract, if any benefit provided by the supplier for product acquisition.
Moreover, as the substitute, which will not be returned the amounts paid for services already rendered or used. "Do not consider the provision already made would be unfair to the supplier and would undermine the principle of good faith," he pointed Steps.
Financial services
In replacement, the rapporteur also excludes the extent the consortium contracts, disciplined by the Law Consortium (11,795 / 08), as well as financial products and services. "Financial services - considered the liquidity of the money and the immediate use of the values put to the consumer - must be excepted from cancellation rights proposed by the project, given that the withdrawal will only be feasible if the consumer has not used the contracted resources" said Passos.
Proceedings
The project will be reviewed in conclusive character, by the Constitution and Justice and Citizenship.
