We posted a message on the 4th Feb 08 advising that we had received numerouse telephone calls from several of Trampolins staff instructing us that we needed to sign for our deeds at the Notary immediately .Upon informing them that we would not sign until the License of First Occupation was obtained, they threatened to cancel our contract.
We advised them at the time that our proposed Spanish mortgage lender would not issue a mortgage without this document and that the bank in question had this contidtion as much for our protection as theirs.Trampolin at this point then tried to get us to use one of their prefered lenders who surprise suprise did not require the license.Needless to say we refused.
We were informed last week that Antonio had instructed a 'for sale' sign to be put in our plot widow and have today been informed that our contract has been canceled and that we would not have our deposit monies returned.The fact that we are also buying an apartment on Trampolin Hills has made no difference to the level of intimidation we have received and the nasty tactics that Trampolin employ.
We are obviously liasing with our Spanish solicitor and will keep you fully updated of the outcome.I doubt that we are the first or will be the last to receive such threats.
