Chasnash -

are you saying that since November 07 you have patiently sat waiting for your money, without once going to Spain and sitting in your lawyer's office until you got  some answers?

I know of the British patience re. waiting in queues, but don't you think it's about time you made a little effort?  For goodness sake, where is your backbone?  No wonder everyone thinks they can ride roughshod over the Brits.  Can you imagine a Spaniard sitting waiting patiently, all that time and doing NOTHING ABOUT IT??

This all may sound a bit harsh but I do think you need a bit of a rocket up your trouser leg.

"Personally I took the gamble that as the property is completed Bank Guarantees would be void "

Just a note on your above comment Dan:

Bank Guarantees do not become 'void' just because a property is completed, even if the Architect has issued the End of Works Certificate.  All that means is the Architect's job of overseeing the construction to his satisfaction has been done.

This EOW certificate has nothing to do with the property having any legality in the eyes of the Town Hall - this only happens when their own inspectors make a site visit and are happy.  When that happens, they issue the Licence of First Occupation (LFO), and then.....and only then....is the purchaser obliged to complete.

The Bank Guarantee is valid until that completion day at the notary's office.

No LFO, the purchaser is not legally obliged to complete without it, and they can sit tight with their Bank Guarantee until there is one.

Am sure you know all this stuff, I just didn't want anyone not so clued up about this to get confused.

I agree with Dan, what gives johnone the right to say who and what is welcome on this development.  Responsible dog owners (like myself) make sure their dogs do not interfere in any way with the lives of others, be it noise or their toilet needs.

I wonder what your comments would be to parents of young children who have a habit of shrieking rather loudly when excited, or crying incessantly for what can seem hours on end.  Will you "promise" that they too are not welcome?  Or how about the teenagers with their drinking, music and laughter until all hours?

Johnone says "Every dog owner will tell you "mine are not like that" but they really are".  A sweeping statement and arrogance all in one misguided sentence, I thank goodness I don't have you for a neighbour - because what a miserable, intolerant one you would be indeed.  I expect you would like to put up a sign: No dogs, no kids, no young people.

If you wanted total control John, you should have bought a villa.

Well said.

 

".....somone has sent a P/M saying I am disruptive and will of course fully take this on board"

If you stick to that, the forum can move on.

A new beginning?

Oh dear, that's a bit embarrassing Dan.  So it was your post all the time??

Nevermind, it was "very informative".
