Filing Banking Complaints
related to Spanish mortgage loans: mortgage floor clauses, and mortgage expenses.
Not many foreigners have entered into mortgage loan agreements with Spanish banks.
However, in case you have, please contact us. We will study your case and let you know if you can file a complaint against your Spanish bank with regards to floor clauses, mortgage expenses or multicurrency mortgage loans.
In case you are wondering what a “floor clause” is, here is a short definition for it.
A “floor clause” is a clause incorporated by Spanish banks to their mortgage loan agreements,
whereby the banks would set a minimum interest rate to be paid in monthly installments by the clients, without taking into account that market interest rates could fall under that “floor”.
- As a result of the above, the European Court of Justice ruled that banks should repay
- their clients for any excess amounts of interest collected from the clients by way of the said “floor clauses”.
- Moreover, we can also file a complaint in order
- to claim back mortgage expenses incurred in by the clients.
