30 Default interest

(1)

A credit contract may not provide that an annual percentage rate applicable under a credit contract to any part of the unpaid balance will differ according to whether the debtor is in default under the contract.

(2)

However, a credit contract may provide for such a differential rate if the higher rate is imposed only in the event of default in payment, in respect of the amount in default and while the default continues.
