What is a Timeshare Scam?
Companies offered to help people exit their timeshare contracts and claim for mis-sold agreements. They convinced clients to pay upfront fees based on false assurances about how strong their claims were. Many of the claims ultimately turned out not to be valid, despite what the company representatives said during the sales process. The BBC reported on a large-scale timeshare scam that also affected more than 500 victims in the UK recently.
What to do If you Invested in Timeshare Legals or a Timeshare Company?
If you transferred funds to a Timeshare company from a UK bank account, you may be eligible to pursue a claim under UK banking regulations. Each case is assessed individually, but acting quickly can improve your chances of recovery.
Fraud victims in the UK have certain protections when they have been the victim of fraud. Depending on when the payment was made and what bank it was from, you may be able to recover your funds through the Contingent Reimbursement Model (CRM Code) or the Mandatory Reimbursement Model.
