Consumers choose Bankia as The Worst Company of the Year

With 48% of the votes, consumers have chosen Bankia as The Worst Company of the Year in the awards that FACUA-Consumers in Action has been organising since 2010 and which are awarded on the15th March to coincide with Word Consumer Rights Day.

The outrageous merger of hole-filled Savings Banks called Bankia owes the Spanish people 23 500 million Euros to fill the giant debt the business has left behind. It is the symbol that this crisis is a swindle and those who caused it have come off stronger at the expense of extensive cuts faced by citizens.

Through the web page FACUA.org/lapeorempresa , consumers have been voting since the 4^th of March for five nominated companies: Bankia, Iberdrola, Movistar
