This ranges from being told by the owners to tell clients that we sold 80% of clients properties on before completion, which at the time was blatantly untrue,and we were also told to give ridiculous rates of capital growth for properties. The internal running of the company was even worse, and on numerous occassions staff were asked to get senior Directors of the company "hooked up" with some of the female members of staff, or else!! Most of this was by text message which thankfully has been retained in case it is ever required. Many of the staff were not and are not receiving commissions as the owners had amassed a tax deficit of 9 million euros between 2001 and 2002, which is still being cleared. You will all be pleased to know that the " affectionately " known A Team have reinvented themselves as Polar, www.polargmd.com and are washing their hands of any client / employee issues that need to be resolved. Under no circumstances should you use Ocean Estates for any sort of transaction! Spam post? If so please click here to report it

The truth only comes out once the money has been pocketed! Yes there are bend companies out there and people should be made aware of them to stop it happening again to others but you took the money whilst you were working for them, so why it bad now and not whilst you were an employee?

I have noticed they seem to have gone, don't see any sign boards, cars and shop fronts, only office i see is in Peurto Banus and that was empty last week. Looks like the big boys have had there day... Spam post? If so please click here to report it

27 Jun 2008 4:10 PM investoreurope Parcela I've made 2 posts Send private message to investoreurope	I have meet some of the people working for Polar GMD what i have been told is different stories from each person in what they actualy do. Also lies have already started coming out from the office when you speak to them. It sounds like they are trying to sell any developer to estate agents but the worse is that some of them have never sold property before and 1 guy worked for a high pressure property company and he is being told exactly what to say and how to sell. But his and the other experience is actually from boiler rooms selling illagel stocks. They are praying on desperate people who need jobs to work for them and will sell anything and tell any one anything to get a sale..... luckly no sales have gone through in a while best advice stay away dont ever deal with them and dont trust them in anything they say Spam post?

29 Jun 2008 3:44 PM scambuster Studio I've made 36 posts Send private message to scambuster	Is that true about Ocean Estates closing even their Banus office? Neither they, their employees not the 'A' Team who are now Polar GMB should be trusted with a bargepole. They have been exposed 8-9 times in the S. Times, Mail on Sunday, TV etc etc for constant mis-selling, lying, selling without Planning Permits, 'Flipping' investment, paying with 'B' money, recommending in-house 'dodgy' lawyers. They were the past masters of the whole deception on the Coasts and moved much of their operations to places like S. Africa, Turkey, Portugal, Florida and other 'emerging (not) markets. Avoid them like the plague if they re-invent themselves. Spam post? If so please click here to report it
