  Re: PUNTA PERLA       I think we lost our money, PuntaPerla money is going to disappear if actions are not being taken we need to arrange a meeting with lawyers. I am looking for a legal advise. I spoke to www.chamberintlawyers.com the guy is called Ferrer, they are based in London. After 4 years I believe the worse.

this person joined sining pig today. The law firm referred to has a website set up recently (under construction) and the LLP was formed in just April 2009. This may be genuine so I will try to find out more tomorrow and let you know.

I am sure you all know the common denominartor in EBCC and Punta Perla being the developer (Ricardo Miranda - Sungolf) and OVP

Dear OVP people

Sleep well chaps, sleep well. You have no concience do you? Someone should talk to the police now. You might get some time off for good behaviour perhaps? Call Staff police economic crime unit. Maybe you will get some years off your sentence? Or work with us to get the person you feel has let you down? Your call.

 see you next friday jtms.

We do need to ensure the police are dealing with this. Report the crime to Staffordshire Econimic Crime Unit. I will go and see them if needed face to face. They need to arrest them and take them to task.

I know one other who will be there at the meeting next Friday. Ok, we can only vote on the appointment of a liquidator but we need to ensure they will look at this from a criminal perspective and be an effective liquidator for the dosh they will earn. Please make sure you register with the IS but tell them you should not be a creditor as they have just stoien your money. The Inslovency offie is 

Official receivers Office,PIU (Manchester),2nd Floor,3 Picadilly Place,Manchester M1 3BN

0161 234 8531

You MUST register by 1 June 2009. Meeting there next Friday. Nothing will be achieved particularly at the meeting but we can all discuss an action plan.  Please bring proof of your involvement, passport/driving licence/ contract. I dont; trust anyone now.

Fingers crossed we can get them brought to justice.

Keep contributing. Have not heard from TrickyVick for a while - anything to add?

Joey123

ps James - don't forget to send me proof of OVP's incompetence. In fact, maybe you are just too trusting and give people the benefit of the doubt and are just a nice chap/ess. I am therefore wondering why the interest in EBCC and the defence of OVP> If you are happish with your lot at G of M just say so and and stop contributing and leave it to us to get justice 

Of course this is a breach of contract.

They didn't abide by the contract. They then agreed to pay me back by instalments which is an admission of guilt. The money has gone. It has been stolen.

The police should be dealing with this. By the time they finish their investigation the crooks will probably have moved the money elsewhere. I'm very pessimistic about seeing my money again.

The best we can hope for is prison sentences for all those involved. But I hope to meet similar people at the meeting. Maybe someone has some ideas about taking a joint action?

Hi Joey123

You make a crucial point - transferring EB&CC client funds to Miranda/Sungolf was a massive breach of contract, trust & the entire spirit of the arrangement.  It was not only OVP that stated funds would not t/f until the BL was granted (& investor funds covered by bank guarantee), Conveyancing Spain (my solicitor) also stated this to be the case within their report on the contract.

The question is, was this action done fraudulently &/or was it a criminal offence to change such a critical & fundimental point?  I think that it is & is scandalous to suggest that it's just director negligence.

As for James, his comments are so inappropriate & wayward he is not worthy of any meaningful debate - i wouldn't bother with him.

James

OVP are the crooks/con men & this is why:

1) They told the EBCC investors (or those they conned into pedling the story (agents etc -& as per the contract documentation) the money would be held in a designated client account until the build licence was granted and only then would they release the money to the developer who would issue the necessary bank guarantee to protect our money as required by Spanish Law;

2) Later they changed their minds and did whatever the hell they wanted to do and said they were just acting in line with their agency agreement;

You cannot say James, considering the above (which you know nothing about as you are related to G of M  I think as you told posters not to post on the G of M site negative matters with OVP as it was all okay(ish)) that OVP are not to blame 100% for the mess I am in. I could add more points but I don't need to.

Is it still Miranda? Unless he controlled the funds paid to OVP then it is not him I hold responsible. There does seem to be a mess over in DR with the Punta Perla site. The communication to investors is poor to put it mildly and the have been rumours of construction started (in fact OVP posted "construction pictures" of it started (which were very funny) many moons ago. It does smell and mirror EBCC in some ways - common theme is lots of bullsh8t!

Tell me I am wrong James and prove it to me. Of course, you cannot.

Susan & Pip

The last thing you should do is invite me. Everyone on this site believes me to be OVP, ex OVP, an OVP sympathiser or the devil incarnate.

No Joey I am not at all happy with my dealings with OVP or anyone associated with them. But in my view (which apparently isn't worth much) their biggest crime is incompitence. I don't believe that theyv'e knicked my cash. I've seen proof (for what that was worth some may say) that they paid Miranda millions and I truly believe that they've fallen foul of him. Doesn't make their conduct right but for me it's Miranda that should be pursued big time. Te chumps at OV have got Eff all left anyhow by looks of things.

Finally, as the old saying goes… “Just because you’re paranoid – doesn’t mean they are not out to get you”

James - no idea. I just don;t have any trust in them whatsoever. This comes from dealing with them since I agreed to purchase on the EBCC site. Of course if they are there then they can be asked directly what they have done with my money however as I have no idea what they all look like , I will have no way of know who I am talking to hence the wish to see some proof of who people are.

Of course the ex-OVP lot probably won't be there anyway.

Am I to believe you are mildy happy with your dealings with them James?  As for the liquidator, I assume one who can prove their experience in fraud investigation which as far as I am concerned is what we are looking at here.

Why would OVP send a plant ????

It's a creditors meeting. They're invited.

Which liquidator do you intend to vote on? Do you have experience in these things?

can we have a "show of hands" regarding who is going to Manchester next week for the Insolvency Service vote on appoointing a liquidator. Apparently nothing will be discussed but we might be able to meet a few similary effected "clients"?

If you go all please bring proof of your payment to OVP and your contract and your passport to identify yourself as a genuine party please and not a plant from OVP, although they could just as easy make something up.

I will be going as long as there are others there to meet/talk with.

Joey123

Has anyone had any joy with this?

I think the police and the insolvency service are acting. It is not just a case of OVP getting liquidated and that's that. It's becoming a broken record now but tell them all the facts and they have to investigate. Ricardo Miranda is involved in Punta Perla and that is all kicking off. The stories and staggering. Bigger mariner, big enough for 2 cruise liners and there are certain people adamant construction has now started. (on the Sining Pig site) This is a familiar theme, as re EBCC we have heard false stories of contsruction starting (ground scrapping of EBCC site), purchases of more land and enhancement of the boundaries/more spacious site/better facilities/better rental returns before. We all got wise to this along time ago. There are a mix of die hard believers and those now convinced something is wrong at Punta Perla.  I am wondering if all the news we received was direct from Ricardo and he is key to this and OVP messed up big time by believing all was well and parted with our money which is now coming back to bite them big time. However, we do know the activities and lies of OVP and their staff and problems with lots of things they have been involved in and have done so we know they are all bad news anyway and have breached contracts and trust with millions of pounts unaccounted for. 

Hi Wilma

Thanks for posting all that info,

It just reinforces my belief that justice will not be served without this matter being escalated to an international level ie. the european parliament or interpol. The chances of that happening are virtually nil, so I think OVP directors & staff must be feeling pretty safe once the formalities of winding down are over and they move on to pastures new.

Regards

Does anybody know what sort of commision the franchises and the introducers recieved from ovp when we handed over our cash. Surely in light of recent events they are moraly obliged to return this money to us. My IFA advised me to take out an even bigger mortgage than necessary so my purchase would not effect my lifestyle in the build period and thereafter i could pull my deposit back. I know he recieved around 2.5k just for arranging the mortgage. Therefore if anyone has an idea of commisions paid and the split between introducer/franchisee it would be much appreciated.

Hi Alarmred, it may well be worth contacting them for any information regarding a contract of endorsement. This is all so similiar to EBCC & the sports stars & the likes of Pat Cash for Taffedna Bay.

Of course Punta Perla was marketed by WWD who was run & owned by a convicted fraudster & has since disappeared..!!! and his associate is now locked up in Egypt....can anyone really believe anything regarding any of the developments..???

wilma, cant find the note but did not wwd/ punta peral not annouce they had signed up the first "golfer" for golf course at punta perla. is it worth contacting that persons representatives to establish if a contract for endorsement was signed

Hi,

I think you will find that the problems with OV and the lack of return of deposits goes a lot further, more to the developer himself. I have been keeping an eye on other forum sites like singing pig & marbella lawyers. The Puta Perla site is another of Ricardo Miranda's which is now under investigation in the Dom Rep. Another site not yet built just like EBCC & Taffenda Bay. Please see letter below that has been sent by the Domincian Watchdog to Punta Perla Rep's. This also mentions the issues with OV. So where is all this money... thousands  of investors with NO properties.!!!
