WE ARE ON PHASE 1 OF THE DEVELOPMENT AND HAVE HAD OUR WATER CUT OFF ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS.

AS WITH MANY OTHERS, WE ARE GETTING A MORTGAGE ON THE PROPERTY HAVING PAID SOME 65% TO DATE. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED ALL OF THE "THREATS" THAT OTHERS SEEM TO HAVE HAD RANGING FROM ESCRITURA IN THE BUILDERS NAME TO DISCONNECTION OF THE (ILLEGAL) WATER AND ELECTRICITY SERVICES. WE HAVE HELD FIRM WITH TRAMPOLIN AND TO DATE NOT PAID AN EXTRA PENNY. THE REQUEST HAS REDUCED FROM 50,000 EUROS TO 2,000 EUROS PER MONTH "FOR WATER AND ELECTRICITY" WHICH WOULD COME OFF THE FINAL BALANCE.

ALL OF THE LEGAL ADVICE WE HAVE HAD SUGGESTS THAT WE SHOULD NOT PAY ANY MORE. THE POINT IS THAT ANTONIO HAS ABSOLUTELY NO RESPECT FOR THE LAW AND CARES NOT ONE JOT IF HE COLLECTS ANOTHER DENUNCIA TO ADD TO THE 15+ HE ALREADY HAS. HE IS THE SOLE DRIVER FOR THESE ACTIONS AND RONNIE AND RAFA (I HAVE SPOKEN AT LENGTH TO BOTH) HAVE VIRTUALLY NO INPUT TO HIS DECISIONS.

WHERE DOES THIS LEAVE US......  IF WE SPEAK INDIVIDUALLY TO 10 DIFFERENT LEGAL "EXPERTS" WE SEEM TO ET 10 DIFFERENT VIEWS ON THE SITUATION AND HOW WE SHOULD PROCEED.

I BELIEVE THAT THE TIME HAS COME TO FORM SOME SORT OF RESIDENTS COMMITTEE AND APPOINT A SINGLE LEGAL COUNCIL TO ACT FOR US ALL AND SHARE THE COSTS ACCORDINGLY.

IF ANYONE WANTS TO PROGRESS THIS APPROACH, SEND ME A MESSAGE AND I WILL FORWARD MY EMAIL ADDRESS. ALSO TALK TO OTHERS YOU  KNOW ON THE SITE AND SEE IF THERE IS MORE INTEREST.

FINALLY, IF ANYONE WANTS A "BED FOR THE NIGHT (OR MORE) WHILE THEY VISIT EL TRAMPOLIN TO ASSESS PROGRESS, GET IN TOUCH AND WE WILL GLADLY ACCOMODATE (ASSUMING WE HAVE WATER ETC!!!!!)

KEEP THE FAITH

IAN.
