The Problem

Miguel signed up for a gym membership advertised at €29/month. After 6 months, he discovered €180 in hidden fees: "administration fee," "card replacement," and "maintenance contribution" that were buried in fine print.

Started with AnyComplaint

Miguel explained the situation. Our AI identified this as a case of unfair contract terms and hidden fees.

Were these additional fees clearly explained before you signed the contract?
Not at all. They just showed me the €29/month price and rushed me through signing.
This may constitute an unfair commercial practice. Under DL 446/85, contract terms that were not properly communicated can be void. Hidden fees that significantly increase the cost are particularly problematic.

Sie versuchten sich hinter dem Kleingedruckten zu verstecken, aber das portugiesische Gesetz schützt Verbraucher vor diesen Tricks. Ich bekam jeden Euro zurück.
