Language of the case: Bulgarian
Referring court
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: TBI Bank
Operative part of the order
1.Article 6(1) of Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts,
must be interpreted as meaning that the national court, on receiving an application for an order for payment and where the debtor-consumer does not take part in the proceedings until the order for payment is issued, is obliged to disapply ex officio an unfair term in the consumer credit agreement concluded between that consumer and the seller or supplier concerned, on which a part of the claim relied on is based. In that case, that court has the option of rejecting that application in part, provided, first, that that agreement can continue in existence without any further amendment, revision or supplementation, which it is for the court to verify, and second, that the claims arising from that term may be distinguished from the rest of the application.
2.Article 6(1) of Directive 93/13
must be interpreted as precluding a national court, called upon to decide a case referred back to it by a higher court, from being bound, in accordance with national procedural law, by legal assessments or directions from that higher court, if it considers, having regard to the interpretation which it has sought from the Court, that those assessments or directions fail to acknowledge the legal consequences arising from the unfair nature of a term of a consumer credit agreement.
