The unfair commercial practices and the collective action through an overview of modern case-law
Summary:
This thesis combines two central issues of Consumer Law, which could each be the subject of a separate study: the unfair commercial practices and the collective actions of consumer associations.
The thesis is structured in five parts. The first part deals with the unfair commercial practices with references to the Directive 2005/29 / EC (UCPD) and the Greek Consumer Law no. 2251/1994 as well as the methodology of judging the fairness or unfairness of a concrete commercial practice. The second part contains a review of case-law of the most recent and significant judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union and a summary of recommendations of the Hellenic Consumer’s Ombudsman. The third part focuses on the stricto sensu collective action of Law no. 2251/1994, while in the fourth one collective actions based on unfair commercial practices are being examined, focusing on the claims of borrowers against banks for loans in Swiss franc (CHF). The last part of the thesis refers to the "New Deal for Consumers" which was announced by the European Commission in April 2018 and includes the updates in the fields of unfair commercial practices and representative actions on behalf of consumers.
