Would appreciate any updates please.

Many thanks

Hi carog

After sales???? like I have said many times before, there is no after sales with E A S. As soon as they have your money they couldn't give a monkeys and as for them not giving you the facts for the true costs...well our hidden costs were around 13000€. The sales man had quoted around £1000 so this came as quite a shock. Will be paying this off for quite some time.......
It's a pity you didn't get your white goods from Fortuna as there are some very good electrical shops there that are quite reasonable. Of course E A S have their own selected shops that they encourage you to purchase from but we found these to be quite expensive. Perhaps they get a percentage form their sales????
Good luck with your move next year.... I am sure you will be very happy at Las kalendas.

Regards
Di

A MIRACLE HAS HAPPENED

Following 8 months of anguish and despair  and several nervous breakdown's, we have finally completed on our property against all the odds (and great expense). 

No thanks go to Euro Anglo Sur, presitge villas in Bournmouth and magnate villas in wolverhampton or spainonshow.com as they now call themselves, who all did a runner on us when the going got tough. So much for their promise that they hold your hand all the way. As soon as they knew that they had failed us in getting the guaranteed mortgage, they just didn't want to know and just sat back, totally ignored our desperate pleas and waited for us to loose our money so that they could re-sell our property.

We found out on the day of completion that we didn't actually own anything, and yet when you purchase from these guys they tell you that your 50% deposit means that you own the land and there are two sets of deeds. Well that is another lie as we found out when the builders issued us with a letter and date to leave the property. 

Anyone going on an inspection trip with these people, beware that nothing they said to us was honest and truthful. There are far better quality properties about if you have a look, as they are not the top quality builds that they state in the brochures. Also don't just look at the show houses as our house is nowhere near the standard of the show house. On valuation, the property was worth 24500.00€ less than we were paying. But at this stage you cannot pull out without loosing all of your money.

Had we have not bought through this agent then we could have saved around £50000.00. Not to mention the need for plastic surgery to have the bags removed from our eyes due to the endless sleepless nights. What an absolute nightmare and a total waste of our hard earned cash. But, hey ho!

Hi Clair,

I agree with jane b that you should contact the Caravan Club as they will have come across this one before and will give you the correct advice. I am also in Spain with a British car and caravan and had problems getting the insurance after the first european cover ran out. The caravan Club were of great help and I am again fully covered. I have also heard that you cannot tow a British caravan with a Spanish car. You would also have to have your caravan transfered to spanish plates if you stayed longer than six months or you could get it sealed by the customs officials to prove that it is not in use. If you are in Spain for 11 months of the year, my advice would be to sell in the UK and purchase in Spain. I am sure this would be a much cheaper option.

Good Luck, Di
