ETNO welcomes the European Commission’s initiative in proposing a Consumer Credit Directive, repealing and updating the current Directive (2008), and bringing consumer protection law with regard to credit agreements up to date, as part of the New Deal for Consumers.
What credit agreements do our members offer?
Our members provide consumer credit agreements, most notably in the form of equipment provided to customers in order for them to avail of services (network access) to which they have subscribed.
