Hello, I have a timeshare that is supposedly being sold. Its in Mexico. My agent says Mexico requires me to send $6000 to them before any real estate transaction can be done. something to do with either taxes or something to do with the Bank needing the OK from the Mexican government to release my funds. The name of my agent is Business Brokers International out of New York. Is there any truth to this or is it a scam. Thank You, Fred

I bought a week way back in the early ’90s at Puerta Calma resort in Puerto Rico in Gran Canaria. I paid over £8k and it came with 2 years free fees.
Roughly 6 months after the purchase I realised it would be of no use to me. I contacted the resort repeatedly informing them I did not need the week I purchased and could refund my money or as the management of the resort could they resell it for me. I never got a response to my numerous requests.
Then I started to get invoices for the annual fees. Again I contacted them again I was ignored. In voices kept coming for several years then stopped and I’ve heard nothing since! I honestly believe I was robbed of the £8k?

Hello, I wonder whether you have any experience/knowledge of the Wimpen Leisure Management group for ElMarques in Tenerife. We owned three weeks at this resort which were purchased in 1995. Wimpen created a holding company so members could transfer their ownership at a cost (we paid £1000) to this holding company if they no longer wanted their timeshare. We did this and have received a letter confirming this relinquishment and stating that we have no past or future responsibility. This week I have been contacted by a legal company advising me that this may not be legally binding and offering to legally relinquish us for a cost of £6/7000. This has freaked me out and I don’t know who to turn to. Can you help?

We bought this in 2014 and have had a number of companies getting us out – my question is there any way I can check if we are out as we don’t get any maintenance bills and have had no contact with them since 2017

is there any website I can check?

Dear Robert,

For some strange reason we cannot fix the problem of answering this question so I have the response here from a lawyer who specialises in current Silverpoint cases.

Dear Robert,

The liquidation of Silverpoint is very complicated and there is not a website you can find out this information, you would need to appoint Spanish legal representation to investigate. Having said that even though the maintenance bills have stopped, you still have a right to a possible claim (will depend on what you purchased from Silverpoint). If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us.
