Transport: 8 out of 10 companies violate security

The Ombudsman's Office, Eduardo Mondino, released the results of an investigation into conditions in the passenger automobile transport long, short and mediadistancia.
"It has been determined - the ombudsman said - that 80% of companies authorized to perform this activity incurs repeated violacionesde the rules established to ensure the safety of its users.
Así, por ejemplo, el máximo de 8 horas, con posibilidad de ser extendido por otras 4 de carácter extraordinario, para que los conductores desarrollen sus tareas es habitualmente incumplido a través de lapsos mucho mayores a los permitidos ".
Otra de las infracciones mas frecuentes es la falta de presentación de los certificados de empadronamiento de las empresas en el registro respectivo y la inscripción de los conductores para ser dados de alta como tales ante la AFIP. Indicó Mondino que " incorporar un mayor número de unidades no fue acompañado con un incremento proporcional de choferes para conducirlas. Esto deriva en la ampliación de los horarios de trabajo .
In the city of Buenos Aires, in so far this year, irregularities were detected in 42%. Of the buses inspected internally on that basis amounted to 53.9% of inspections reported violations.
companies offered no evidence in his defense confirming the allegations put to them. The repeated violations over time leads to the conclusion that the penalties provided for are not currently provided to alleged economic benefit for the companies to transgress .
The Ombudsman noted that the agencies should increase the frequency and depth of the controls and the magnitude of the sanctions to be imposed.
Between 1 January and 22 March last, it was confirmed that many drivers and auxiliary personnel work longer than the legal time and do not have the hours of rest required. We also checked defaults in completing the work book of drivers and assistants on board, and the lack of grant of CHF in the months and lack of mandatory life insurance.
"Clearly, then, that excessive working hours is used in passenger motor transport long, short and mediadistancia as an effective tool to increase business revenue at the expense of established standards to ensure the safety of users, "concludes Mondino.

Consumer Rights in the Banking Recruitment

Interview with Isabel Novosad, President of the Association PADEC (Prevention, and Consumer Advice)

What are the most frequent complaints they receive in the association?

Fundamentally, are banking issues. Specific issues and abusive charges for debts that users can not pay. We are trying to do is to avoid being charged interest and fees abusive and that expenditures conform to the parameters of the law.


The credit card bill leaves it to the very banks interest on top of what can be done against this?

is exactly true. Art. 16 of the law of credit cards (25 065) enables the issuers of credit cards to apply up to 25% more than the fees set for personal loans. A literal interpretation would mean that institutions bank may charge up to 25% more than they wish to collect on personal loans. This interpretation also to be shocking with the guarantee of property rights implies a privilege of the financial sector at the expense of consumption and production.
For the art. 4 of the Consumer Protection Act, banks should report in a truthful, comprehensive, effective and sufficient criteria by which sets interest rates. With no explanation, the banks keep the money from users that overload with more debt than they should bear.

What is the interest rate you should charge?

In times of inflation, the judges considered the acceptable rate was 5% to 6% annual rate of inflation plus .
There is a whole of year 91 of the Charter Business, which warns of the danger that in times of stability the users end up paying higher interest rates in inflationary times.

Aristotle said that money makes money . But the gain should be a function of the job. For this reason, rates should not exceed the growth parameters económico.En 97 years, was applied between 70 and 80% interest on credit cards.
is currently between 18 and 35% annually in the first line card. The second line have a stake of between 80 and 90%. That is usury.

"Why is it so important to check that banks do not charge $ 1 or more customers?

The consumer law is relevant for macroeconomic effects it causes.
The trouble is that if such contracts are generated massive irregularities are facing a violation of the right of ownership. For example: 300 thousand or more people who have demanded payment compulsively 3 or 4 pesos for charges are illegal.
The question becomes relevant because these people have stopped drinking, for example, $ 2 multiplied by 300 000 people is $ 600,000.
For $ 8 pesos is $ 2,400,000 in a single month.
Multiplied by 12 months for $ 2 is $ 7,200,000. And at $ 8 are $ 28,000,000 per year.
Therefore, this influences the generated jobs and a reduction in consumption and a shift of ownership to the detriment of consumers and for banks to charge more.

FINES COMPANY FOR CONSUMER PROTECTION

When a citizen makes a complaint in a Consumer Protection agency, the authorities call a settlement with the company. If an agreement is reached the process is completed.
But if there is no agreement, then the process continues and may result in a penalty to the company.

In the same vein, when the enforcement authority of the Consumer Protection Act of acts of trade and after a long process (records, inspections, presentations, documentation, preventive measures and reconciliations cessation of conduct) the offending company, also can be sanctioned.

The Consumer Protection Act provides different penalties for violators. These range from warnings, confiscation of goods, closures, suspensions, loss of concessions and fines from 500 to 500 thousand pesos.

There are 2 cases that emerged from the Municipal Bureau of Information to Consumers (OMIC) of San Isidro worth noted for his knowledge public:

Robo to the home of actor Miguel Angel Cherutti

In 2000, the wife of actor Prosegur company contracted with an alarm system and security for his home in the town of San Isidro. On January 22, 2004, with the empty house, stole all the valuables that were there. In that event, the security system did not respond. The company informs the actor who was the customer's responsibility to maintain the telephone line, and that if it was cut, they had no liability for damages caused. But the actor said that such information had been provided at the time of hiring service. In addition, it was found that the firm did not install the sensors reported needed to cover every room in your home. The criminals entered the house through the window on the first floor, which had no alarm system and was forced.

Fine: $ 57,750.00.
The fine was upheld by the court Contentious administral No. 1, San Isidro, and then, before the new appeal, upheld by the Court of Administrative Litigation San Martín (in 2nd and last resort) and paid a few days judicial confirmation

River Bank Robbery

Mr. Fabio Alejandro Fossati, reported River Bank for having been a victim of the robbery occurred on January 13, 2006 at the branch as the Liberator was the holder of a safe.
The resolution stated that the Bank had breached the contractual duty to "ensure" the safe of the complainants.

$ 500,000 fine. and publish a resolution condemning his position in the daily Clarín, San Isidro supplement.
This is the highest fine to be punishing a company and there are very few cases like this.
The fine is on appeal is time, and surely it will.


How much this money were the complainants? Answer: Nothing.

In all cases where the fine imposed economic sanctions is not to compensate the complainant (the Consumer Protection Act does not currently provide compensation) but CORRECT delinquent behavior.
The only instance where the consumer can seek redress is "reconciliation." What can the consumer is used then the resolution with opinion in his favor as an argument in court.

Corneal Edema Symptoms

OBESITY INCREASES PRICES: What can the consumer?

Every day, they appear in the daily increases in prices of different items: meat, fish, schools, rentals, etc.
The question always the same: Why increase it? And what can the consumer against increases?


Before trying to answer is to clarify some things :

- prices our market are free, except those agreed as fuel, some cuts of meat and a certain amount of products (some foods, certain products school basket and various medications, etc.). Products out of the agreement were large increases.
- The consumer protection law does not regulate the price increase .
- The rents are also free. But once the contract was made can not change the agreed conditions.
- Recent increases in prepaid and colleges were agreed with the provincial and national levels.
- The government brought out the Supply Act 1974 with which you can "punish" with closures, fines and jail those who do not meet the thresholds, in the case of imposing them. It is very controversial and not performed well in the past.
- prices of public services are the only regulated.

Why increases things: Some of the responses:

- Increased
costs - increased seasonal demand (tourism, fish for Easter, etc)
- There is little to offer because it all goes Export


What can the consumer?

The usual advice:

-
stop buying increasing :
must make a cultural change
. Until now the public no longer consume a product is increased. Example: If you can afford, you eat meat. At best, they choose less expensive cuts.
The change must be society as a whole : you can and can not afford to be thinking about how to replace fish for Easter when the clouds increases without justification. (For now, culturally, we are far from this possibility)
On the other hand, there are things we simply can not: rentals.
As for prepaid, as they grow fewer citizens can access it: So change of plan, then companies, and as the crisis becomes public system.


- Search price:
Not everyone has the time to go shopping at Central Market. Furthermore, those who live far away need a car and able to take the merchandise.
Central Market is not an option for a person inside the country. Who have a car is more likely to choose, but this option does not work for the most humble.

can be reported :

"The increases in any contract that provides for increases, such as bank interest, etc.
-shelf products that say a price and on the box say next.
-Products are offered on an ad with a price and then trade with another, or say they ran out of stock. The state will check what the real stock.
-Increases in the schools that are created unjustified (especially where they are subsidized).
-The expenses were not informed at the time of purchase.
-interests were not informed in recruitment.
-social and pre-paid works that do not meet the Mandatory Health Plan.
-Merchants round the back in their favor.
-products that do not meet hygiene and safety.
-price agreements, although voluntary, were signed to accomplish. Where

Interview with Director of Commerce of the Province of Buenos Aires

Dr. Marc Coppola is the Director of Commerce of the Province of Buenos Aires who is responsible, among others, the Consumer Guidance Department. Before entering public service, Coppola joined the Consumers' Association Civic Crusade.

In an election year: How does the policy protect consumers?

Our address does not party political differences and seek cooperation and joint work between the Province and Municipalities.
From the political, if any influence is positive.
In an election year, politics wants to show achievement for the people and that the defense system of consumer rights is a central tool for that.

Why even municipalities without municipal offices Consumer Information (OMIC), such as Tigre?
OMIC
There are 75 more the Provincial Department of Commerce that serves those claims of municipalities where there are none, or directly, are presented in the Directorate.
More 90% of the population of the province has a OMICS near his home. The rest of the municipalities, with some exceptions, have fewer than 30,000 inhabitants.
For those who still have not created I think there is some ignorance. It is important to understand that good traders or entrepreneurs can not be harmed by these rules, to the contrary are protected, and consumers have a tool to defend their rights.
Tigre If we believe that the hallmark of Mayor Ubieto was a major hindrance to the OMIC was constituted, attentive his untimely death, we believe that the next mayor who will inaugurate the office.
We must also say that people do not exercise enough social pressure to simply appoint the mayors and officials should ensure the rights of consumers and users .

How do you work to try and change the background issues, such as matters relating to public services?

act as the implementing authority of office. Last year, it required adherence and performance contracts to 48 companies of prepaid medicine, 10 companies Savings Plan Administrators and 3 companies of Cable TV Services for review.

Is It Normal For A Wart To Turn Black

WORLD THANKS FOR THE RIGHTS OF

March 15 marks the World Day of Consumers' Rights.

MYTHS AND FACTS

take this opportunity to demystify some misconceptions about the Consumer Protection:

- "If I have a problem call the Ombudsman on 0800 and make a complaint."

Complaints can only be made personally. In 0800 only made reference. In the Province of Buenos Aires also be made by mail by sending the supporting documentation.

- "If I find a fly in a yogurt, I make a complaint and ask them silver

The Consumer Protection Act does not provide compensation. So you just get another yogurt (this time without the fly). You can make a profit if the reconciliations to reach an agreement with the company or whether there was damage and you do (and win) a lawsuit.

- "If the law gives me the reason, I report and resolve insurance at the time."

No complaint is resolved immediately, unless a life is at stake (For example: if a social work do not want to cover something of great urgency.) For the rest, the solution can take days (at best), weeks and even months.


OUTSTANDING ISSUES


consulted representatives of various associations and asked for the problem serious consumers live today. Pedro

Bussetti (deuces):

"The biggest problem is the lack of effective protection of consumer rights. People are helpless. Some examples: the poorest citizens who pay more than light because they must be nourished by the light of work being unable to pay a licensed electrician to perform the required clearance. Another example is the high interest rates on non-bank financial institutions. " Dr. Osvaldo Riopedre

(PROPER):

"The systematic violation of the law by 24,240 employers, producers and the State. Examples: Guarantees, Law of rounding lack of compliance in the prospectuses, and prepaid cellular. "


Dr. Ricardo Nasio (PROCONSUMER)

"Lack of access to the consumption of thousands of citizens. In addition to high costs and lack of regulation of private health insurance plans, among many other examples. "

Mr. Américo Garcia (UNION USER):

"Lack of information on various goods and services, as well as misleading information to entice consumers. Examples: cell phones, credit, health insurance companies, etc. ".

Dr. Alejandro Groglio (ADECODIS Assoc on Consumer Protection Disabled):

"Architectural barriers and lack of delivery of disability certificates that are necessary for social work, free public transport, cars, jobs (the law sets a mandatory quota, etc.)."


CELEBRATION

The Consumer Defense Secretariat organized the First Exposure exhibition consumer orientation "to be held from 15 to 17 March at the Exhibition Center of the City of Buenos Aires (Av. Figueroa Alcorta and Pueyrredón).

Sleeplessness Lymphoma

SECURITY RIGHTS IN THE FOOTBALL IS ALSO A CONSUMER LAW


In 1996, during a party that fought and Independiente Lanus Apertura by the home fans threw all kinds of objects from the stadium in the eye injuring Hugo Arnaldo Mosca who was in the vicinity causing a progressive loss of vision.

The Supreme Court's Office determined that the responsibility for the attack is the Club Lanús as organizer and the AFA, as participants and beneficiaries the sporting spectacle. However, exonerated the State of Buenos Aires by the performance of police personnel. Both entities must compensate the victim.

In its argument, the judges emphasized the right of consumers to safety.
the Court says that "an organizer of a sports event has a safety requirement for attendees ... as those who attend a show they do in the confidence that the organizer has arranged steps to care for them ... The organizer must protect the viewer located inside the stadium, when accessing it to see the show and, when a few meters from the entrance .. "

Regarding the AFA also held responsible because it was also an organizer (actor) and benefiting from the sporting event which caused injury to the actor.

"The idea that the organizers will deal only with the sport and profit, while security is a matter of state, is unsustainable in constitutional terms. Safety is a right that consumers and users (Art 42 Constitution) who is in charge of those who develop the provision or organized under its control, because it is unreasonable to participate in transferring benefits losses. "
