The manner in which the Act protects consumers is multifaceted, however, the scope of this study is limited to the provisions of section 127.

The provisions of section 127, which afford substantive and procedural protection to credit consumers, curtail the right of credit providers under the common law to seek recourse on the basis of repudiation of the contract by the consumer. Section 127, and in particular its procedural protection measures such as the question how notices in terms of the section must be brought to the consumer’s attention, came up for judicial scrutiny on several occasions.
