This study aims to investigate the refund of credits to consumers that were excluded or discontinued of purchasing pool agreements, seeking to scrutinize it in light of the recent legislation that regulates purchasing pool agreements in Brazil, Law No. 11795/08, as well as the Consumer Protection Code.
