Vorwerk Kobold – Illegal request for interest?
The answer is NO!, a comment on the blog clarified everything. I haven't edited the post correctly yet, if you want you can continue reading, but keep this update in mind.
For several days there has been a lot of comment on the blog about the fact that Vorwerk Folletto was just a short time ago, required the payment of interest on the purchase of Kobold products paid in monthly installments, that is to say, the Folletto financed the amount to be paid and increased it by a fairly high amount of interest.
Il 14 September, just after the July-August summer promotional campaign, Vorwerk Folletto all of a sudden, eliminated interest from split payments, Thatdal 19,90% they suddenly moved on to the 0% of interest!
Thanks to the help of those who comment, we arrived at a written response on the Bank of Italy website where it states thatno one else, beyond banks and financial intermediaries, may require intereston the splitting of the amount to be paid.
Just to give you a practical idea of what I'm talking about, just think about the purchase of a complete Folletto which cost 1,795 euros, the interest paid by you in 24 months were over 300 euros!
Vorwerk Folletto told its collaborators that this law came into force shortly before the day he decided to remove interest, however from research carried out on the date that the company Vorwerk Folletto said, in the guise of District or Area Heads, There is no official gazette issued that day.
What can you do, go to a consumer association,Bring both the signed contract and the paid bills with you, Get advice on how to act and then maybe tell us with a comment what they told you. I'm asking you why I would like your participation... and just sit on your ass 🙂 glued to your seat, I could go to a Codacons patronage and clarify the whole matter for you, but I prefer you to do it, so it's not just me explaining this matter.
I close by writing to you what is written in a comment, Vorwerk Folletto has been warned three times and she was careful not to get the fourth warning, otherwise he would receive a sanction that could lead to the suspension of sales on Italian territory.
Take action!
