Security - Breakins

Thanks for letting us know brutus. That info is somewhat reassuring at least.

We have just heard the dreadful news to-day that we have been broken into, we are ground floor block 5 again flat screen TV taken. Thats all we know at present, as the spanish phone line was poor.

We notice that the Casares Golf Gardens accross the road have a barrier that traffic must stop at. I think if we had the same instead of the security man moving around it would help.

Sorry to hear mindclinic,  we hear of people being arrested but the thefts continue, virtually a owners hazard at the moment if thats any comfort.  i suppose we will really have to give security a lot more thought about the details as this looks like something that is not going to go away by itself.

I am thinking of representations to Police - Town hall, getting the details re security barriers and security staff.

Still get that horrible feeling inside though-and its all been payout until now-having to do it again is something non of us could account for

Yes it's alright these people sat on their backsides in the town hall and such saying that this site should not be enclosed and so on as we were duped into believing  initially.  We were expecting barriers etc.,We have paid for that security and are surely entitled to it.  Many of us would not have entertained the buying of property on this site should we have been told the truth. My brochure says this and that - have these people at the town hall actually seen one of these brochures?  Would they have bought on this site I wonder?  It's pathetic and as you say anything we do to try to improve the security has to come out of our pockets again and again........ (By the way I even have it on good authority that one of the security men likes a tipple and sleeps in the car so everyone keep your eyes out when visiting) What bloody chance have we got eh? Don't get me wrong, I do like my little place which is now like Fort Knox after everything that John Jones has put on for me. He's now even put up bars around the back window where the washing machine area is! but it's still very worrying when you're away from the place.  I know that this isn't just a problem in Spain - it's everywhere.  These people who think they're entitled to live off other hard working peoples  posessions just make my blood boil.

Sorry, had to get that one off my chest!

Not been on the forum for a while and I’m shocked and sorry to hear of all the break ins. With any luck, as the area gets busier and more residents move in to the various resorts, this will prove to be a blip rather than a trend. Although I know this would be of no solice to those unfortunate enough to have been victims.

I also realise that sleuth and heroic one man irritation Norman Sands has rumbled my clever guise of random puchaser from Scotland with a silly nickname. Now, if only he could turn his obvious perspicacity to finding Lord Lucan and solving the JFK case, the world would forever be in his debt. Perhaps we could club together to send him to Casares, the burglars would be bang to rights within minutes of his arrival.
