Cold calling WDL Services and the strange story of awarded money in Spanish courts.

WDL Services is a name we first got mentioned over a year ago. At that time, they were contacting consumers on cold calls and telling them about money awarded through the courts but the money could not be paid out. The issue was a missing TIE number. TIE numbers were given out to British residents in Spain after Brexit, and really these numbers have nothing to do with money transfers to the…

Legalion, the fake lawyers from Tenerife strike again

After all these years one would have hoped these people would be gone by now, but no, they are not gone and are still here! This time they use the name Legalion, not to be mistaken with the genuine lawyer’s company in Madrid, the bogus one is based in Tenerife. Always tricky when they use the same or similar name as a real one, as consumers try to do their homework and are still confused with the…

You paid Arbitration Consultants and now Timeshare Compliance offers help to recover the money?

Funny how companies seem to vanish, claim to go into liquidation or that no funds have been received and straight after that, you get a new company cold calling to offer help to all those consumers who are victims of these companies. Obviously, when you paid a company like Arbitration Consultants, you did because you were convinced, they were the ones that were going to help you. And receiving an…

Breaking news, Spanish courts award money to victims of DWVC, Timelinx and incentive Leisure group!

Wow, how’s that for a header? Is this not the news you were waiting for after all the cold calls received with statements like this? Well, we are sorry to say but the header is NOT TRUE! Unfortunately, there is no other way to catch the attention of those consumers who unfortunately fell for the above-mentioned companies and clubs and are still hoping that somewhere there is money to be…

Anybody heard from De Bem Silva Abogados or Van Oost Lawyers?

A very dubious “lawyers” company was brought to our attention not so long ago and we certainly feel the need to warn all consumers who might receive a cold call from this lot. De Bem Silva Abogados, or Debem Silva van Oost Abogados pretends they are based in Madrid, but for some strange reason they are doing claims in the courts of Granada against timeshare resorts based on the Costa del…

Valencia Juristic Reclamacion and the court claim against DWVC

A very strange cold caller has popped up by the name of Valencia Juristic Reclamacion. This company assures the consumer that there has been a successful court claim against DWVC, and the consumer has been awarded money. The settlement has been agreed and a substantial amount of money was supposed to be on its way to the consumer. But as always happens with these kinds of calls, things are never…

Fernando y Asociados, another cold calling “litigation” Company based in Majorca.

  There seems to be a thing going with lawyers’ companies in Mallorca. If before they all seemed to be based in Tenerife, now all companies that are brought to our attention seem to have an address in Mallorca. This is also the case with the cold caller Fernando y Asociados. Several inquiries from concerned consumers indicate they have been cold called and referred to Fernando y Asociados for a…

Arbitration Consultants and the failed STRIPE payment

  Worrying messages are received from consumers about an email they received from the company Arbitration Consultants.

The email message is as follows: Dear Client, We are writing to you today in relation to your case…

Who are ERS or European Recouperation Solutions?

We have received a large number of inquiries in the past week about a cold caller by the name ERS Solutions. A cold caller with apparent “transparent” services for timeshare owners. ERS  presents themselves as consultants whose “role” is to establish which timeshare and point owners are eligible for compensation, due to the mis-selling of timeshares. That might sound plausible, but the fact they…

Did you receive a call from the FAKE Grupo Logra about a Brexit Stamp?

A recent cold caller has been spotted by the name of Grupo Logra. There seems to be a real company with this name, but please note they have NOTHING to do with these cold callers who pretend to be lawyers in Tenerife. The agent from this fake Grupo Logra contacts consumers to inform them about an awarded amount of money through the Santa Cruz Court in Tenerife. To obtain this money, the consumer…

Careful with the bogus company Servicios Legales Barcelona!

One of the latest bogus companies brought to our attention is a company called Servicios Legales Barcelona. This company sends an email to consumers who have been defrauded before and were actually offered a “refund claim” by another fraudulent company. Now years later, Servicios Legals Barcelona sends an email out of the blue, notifying the consumer about their claim being successful and a big…

JR Abogados, more fake lawyers from Tenerife

  One of the latest cold callers is a company using the name of JR Abogados (FAKE). This (fake) lawyers’ company is based in Tenerife and their way of working has all the looks of the Fake lawyer group from Tenerife that has been defrauding consumers over the past years. These bogus lawyers are using or better said abusing the name of a genuine lawyers company that is based on mainland Spain,…

A new bogus resale company has come to our attention as the supposedly London-based Macquarie Developments.
