Let’s kick off this week with ANOTHER fantastic win against Anfi – this time for our German clients.
High Court number 5 have finalised our clients claim against Anfi by awarding them 51.573€ PLUS INTEREST PLUS COSTS – 11.600€ MORE THAN THEY ORIGINALLY PAID!
As we have stated many times before, the taking of deposits within the statutory cooling off period is illegal and the law dictates that these amounts should be repaid in DOUBLE. As you can see from this claim it can make a BIG DIFFERENCE to the amounts awarded by the court.
Our clients won their claim against Anfi in the courts of the First Instance SBT 2 when the Judge declared our clients’ contract with Anfi null and void and demanded of 35.573€ PLUS INTEREST.
Of course, Anfi appealed this decision……but in this case so did we………..
In passing sentence the court of the First Instance made no mention of deposits paid within the statutory cooling of the period – just a simple oversight we knew would be rectified by the High Court because this point of law has been firmly established by the Supreme Court who legislated that amounts taken within this time should be repaid in DOUBLE.
As expected we were right.
The High Court dismissed the claim from Anfi and accepted ours thereby increasing the previously awarded amount of 35.573€ to 51.573€ PLUS INTEREST PLUS COSTS – an increase of 16.000€!!!
Congratulations to our German clients and to our Claims Consultant Evi Richter and our Lawyers Eva Gutierrez and Christine Lehmann.
