I read today an offer for representation from a Law Firm, for an action against a Bank using Law 57/68 and it worried me as it portrayed it as an ultra-easy process where you just almost need to merely call the bank and receive your refund. I felt obligued to state that it is not that way at all.
The email I read said there was new easy, direct legislation for these refunds and that is completely unaccurate: there is recent Case Law by the Supreme Court ( that is not legislation) establishing liabilities under certain requisites that, of course need to be present in the case you present to the Bank. Not all situations can be transformed into a successful judicial result.
Another unaccuracy of the advert I read is that it states that interests is compunded, which is not as it is calculated on a simple annual basis.
Just be careful and double check
