Recent Victories

30K Club La Costa Victory

30K Club La Costa Victory

The largest victory our legal team obtained last week was against Club la Costa, the money awarded was £30,870. The nullity was declared by the judge due to the lack of information in the contract which means it doesn't respect the legal requirements. In this case, the judge declared the nullity of all previous contracts as well. In another CLC Sucursal victory from last week our client was awarded £11,667.

For similar reasons the contracts in the cases against Diamonds and Anfi Sales from the past week were also deemed null. In the Diamond case £12,834 was awarded and in the Anfi Sales case £11,694 was awarded.

In addition to this, our legal team obtained 5 favourable jurisdiction judgements against CLC which were heard in Fuengirola and Arona Court. The contractual names of these cases were CLC Sucursal and CLC Continental Resorts.

About Timeshare Release

During the Timeshare sales boom of the 80s & 90s, potential buyers were lured in by the promise of affordable exotic holidays, flexible exchange programmes and the impression that Timeshare would be a valuable "investment".

In an industry with little or no regulation, high pressure sales tactics were rife and contract smallprint was often glossed over and explained away by sharp salespeople.

Many Timeshare buyers were therefore unaware that they were actually making significant, long term financial commitments on behalf of themselves and their families.

The Timeshare Trap

The timeshare trap

For many Timeshare owners, annual maintenance fees were barely considered token amounts in the early "honeymoon period" of ownership.

However, year-on-year increases imposed by the resorts over time now mean that the maintenance fees have risen to become substantial sums.

Owners are also facing the prospect of ongoing yearly fee increases and realising that they (and their families) are often committed to long term contracts for generations to come.

Please try our Future Fees Calculator to estimate your liabilities over the term of your Timeshare contract, based on an annual increase of 7.5%.

If you're concerned about rising fees and how to escape the Timeshare Trap, please contact us today.

Recent comments from RCI Timeshare owners who have come to us for help with contract cancellation:

Mr Steve R, Middlesex - RCI/Hollywood Mirage

“We 'swapped ‘another place in Tenerife for this in order to move to the points system. Since then, getting exchanges to desirable resorts proves almost impossible, irrespective of in-season or off-season.”

Mrs Rachael B, Yorkshire - RCI Europe

“I purchased my timeshare in 1999 and have been a timeshare member ever since. More often than not, I have not be able to go where I wanted and have ended up giving a few weeks to Friends, etc to book somewhere they wanted in order not to lose the weeks. I have then stayed in a hotel!! I am desperately trying to get rid of the timeshare and am now paying Timeshare Shop in Manchester to get rid of it for me.”
