We signed a contract with Polaris World for buying a townhouse at Mar Menor Golf Resort in 2005. It was not started to be built in 2009, and we had not received a bank guarantee either. For that reasons, we had lost our belief in Polaris World and was tired of Polaris constantly ignoring our efforts of getting in contact with them during these years. So we decided we didn't want the house, but our prepaid money back. Until then we had paid 126 000 euroes, and became worried about the whole thing. Therefore we contacted a lawyer, and we brought Polaris World to the court. The townhouse was at last started to be built in 2010, and finished during that year, but the house was of no interest for us anymore.
The court gave their final decision (after their first decision had been appealed) in november 2013. They gave us two options - 1) fullfill the contract or 2) accept an offer from Polaris World (don't know yet what this could be).
One of the main arguments from the court was to protect the Polaris World firm for not going bankrupt, so therefore we didn't get our money back - Polaris World should have them!. Seems rather strange and disgusting that the spanish court system protects firms like Polaris World....

Spanish courts favours Polaris World - not the consumer
