114,806 reasons to celebrate the weekend …….
………. as the Supreme Court hands down a further 2 decisions relating to Anfi timeshare contracts. Both of these rulings are completely consistent with those handed down over the last several months in finding that floating weeks are illegal since they do not relate to any particular apartment or any particular week, and in a second ruling that contracts of more than 50 years duration are illegal.
As a result there is a very happy Norwegian family who have 31,998 euro of their money back plus legal fees from the lower court, and similar celebrations in the UK where our clients have received 82,808 euro, including their deposit in double, plus legal fees plus interest – more than 114,000 euros returned in a 2 days, with both contracts declared null and void.
We have 2 more happy families who will be receiving no more maintenance bills, or facing the prospect of handing those bills on to their next of kin. They are also free to choose where and when to take their holidays, at times and locations dictated to them only by their own wishes
.
Both the Spanish Civil Code and the Timeshare Regulations have been applied in the way which it was always intended they would be when the regulations were written. The Spanish legal system, particularly the Supreme Court has demonstrated very clearly its willingness to follow both the spirit and the letter of the laws, which should give more and more confidence to anyone trapped in timeshare, that there is a real solution available which does not mean walking away from thousands of pounds or the worry that they might be pursued for unpaid maintenance fees.
Our warmest congratulations go to these two families and to the best legal team in the business who secured these rulings.
