Hennie is a 25-year-old, Afrikaans-speaking farm owner from the Free State.
He does not fully understand English and wants to purchase a new bakkie to
enable him to travel to work and also load farming material. Hennie
approaches Bantu Bank to obtain credit for the purchase of the new bakkie.
Bantu Bank conducts a credit assessment to determine Hennie’s
affordability. The terms of the Bank’s contract are very long and complicated
and the document is printed in English. Bantu Bank enters into a credit
agreement with Hennie despite information available to the Bank that
indicated that Hennie did not understand any of the terms of the proposed
credit agreement. Hennie later purchased a bakkie with the credit that he
received from Bantu Bank, and after six months of repayments Hennie could
not continue with the repayment of the debt under the credit agreement.
Bantu Bank instituted civil proceedings against Hennie’s default of payment
in terms of the credit agreement. Hennie now consults you for a legal
opinion. In your discussion with Hennie reflect on the following: a) What are
the different types of reckless credit agreements provided by the National
Credit Act 34 of 2005? (3) b) Does the agreement concluded between Hennie
and Bantu Bank amount to a reckless credit agreement in terms the National
Credit Act 34 of 2005? (2) c) Would your answer be different if Hennie was
fluent in the English language? (2) d) What are the powers of the court or
tribunal in respect of each type of reckless credit?
Hallo Hennie. It sounds like you are in a tough spot with that bakkie, but the law in South Africa
actually has specific protections for situations just like yours. Under the National Credit Act 34
of 2005 (NCA), banks have a massive responsibility to ensure you know exactly what you’re
signing.
