Recital 62
CCD2
(62) Overdraft facilities and overrunning are increasingly common forms of consumer credit. Therefore, there is a need to regulate those financial products in order to increase the level of consumer protection and avoid over-indebtedness. There is a danger that consumers will not be able to pay if the creditors decide to request immediate refunds. Therefore, consumer rights in respect of overdraft facilities and overrunning should be laid down in this Directive.
