I presume you all received it?

The email from gwilmrj? What's the collective thinking here? Not that it has much to do with me as I'm not a buyer but a spy living feet from the site.

Oh, and I'm now told (by a reliable source) that you should all be making enquires because the story is that they've sold all the houses several times on the basis that the "cancellation fees" from all those that drop out will be very profitable.

My advice would be to try your best to re-coup what you can and then put the whole thing down to experience.

Oh, and can just one of you (no names, no pack drill) let me see a copy of the (portion of the) contract that states that the houses are VPO please?

Hi Paul

Keith here - whats all this then this time ?

Another rumour or anything of substance ?

Do enlighten me

I e-mailed Gwilym (Gwilym Rhys-Jones,Adviser and Investigator,Costa del Sol Action Group)
and here is part of his reply.  I have also contacted Maria de Castro who contributes to this site who has had sight of my contract and has been very helpful. The best chance of a group action at minimal cost would seem to be CDSAG at €250 each. Alternatively Marias firm will take up the case for €1500 for an out of court settlement or €4000 to go to court. The main problem at the moment is that I have yet to receive a completion document of any sort from Palmera/Mirador. Has anyone else?

The CDSAG is non-profit making and our general principle is to charge members a one-off joining fee of 250 euros. That is how it has worked in the past and all that money has gone to our lawyers to defray their costs such as translations and copying. Vast numbers of documents have had to be translated into English for the Spanish courts. The class action is now in its final stages with prison sentences and restitution orders expected for the miscreants.
