What They Didn't Tell You

The Federal Court found Harvey Norman (who also owns Domayne) and Latitude Finance engaged in misleading conduct. Here's what was hidden from consumers.

Hidden Establishment Fees

One-time fees charged at signup that weren't clearly disclosed during the "interest-free" promotion.

Monthly Account Fees

Ongoing monthly service charges that accumulated over the 60-month "interest-free" period.

Forced Mastercard Signup

Consumers required to open a Latitude GO Mastercard - a continuing credit contract - to access the "interest-free" finance.

Interest on Other Purchases

Standard interest rates applied to any non-promotional purchases on the linked MasterCard.

Real Consumer Impact

This is what happened to everyday Australians who trusted the "interest-free" promise.

Illustrative example based on typical fee structures

A consumer purchases a $2,000 item using the "60 months interest-free" promotion. What may not have been clearly disclosed:

  • One-time establishment fee at signup
  • Monthly account service fees for up to 60 months
  • High interest rates on any other card purchases
  • Requirement to obtain a Latitude GO Mastercard

These undisclosed costs could significantly increase the total amount paid, despite the promotion being advertised as "interest-free."

The Federal Court found that consumers were not adequately informed about these fees.
