It is not permitted by law condition the supply of a product to the purchase of any other product

The day

Rio - The tying is an abusive practice. It is not permitted by law condition the supply of a product to the purchase of any other product. Similarly, it is forbidden to condition number of items or services. For example, a financial institution that determines the release of the money intended for the customer to buy a savings bond. The tying is characterized, then, when promotion is made to purchase an item, "forcing" consumers to take another product together.

Now appears, however, another blow: polygamy in tying. It is when it pushes not just one but several products to the customer. Where the consumer looking to buy a stove, and a distraction or the insistence of the seller, signs a contract on acquiring a residential safe. This is what is called polygamy in tying.

The buyer has to be very careful when signing any kind of contract so that, instead of receiving a product in your home, end up getting several. And on top, you will have to bear the costs of "polygamy". The alleged "internal rules of the company", which many vendors cite to do this kind of transaction, have the power to revoke the right of the consumer.

'You have to weigh the each credit contracted values and its ability to meet payments', Marcela Kawaut, chief economist at SPC Brazil
