Estepona Beach & Country Club
I invested 105,000 euros with Ocean View Properties in 2005/06 for an apartment in their Estepona Beach and Country club site. Subsequently the site has not been built and all indications would sugguest planning permission was never in the offing!! Surely this is a clear breach of contract and we get our monies back??? Now Ocean View Properties have went into administration and we're told we are not company does not regard us as creditors! Can anyone offer advice, i have exhausted all avenues of resonable contact with Ocean view properties and while they assure me my monies are safe they cannot indicate where they are!
Any help would be much appreciated

Dear Lawbird Lawyer,
Thank you for the reply. At time of purchase the introducer, and OVP franchise manager for my area, assured us the monies would be in a nesco account. For some twelve months now i have been requesting my deposit returned for breach of contract, including a formal written request. Each time i have been hit with obstacles, my solicitor has no help or guidance and claims it's outside their area. OVP initially claimed the monies were held in a joint OVP/developer account, and their release could only be authorised by dual signature and the developer would not allow this. However at end of 2008 they changed this to say the developer had all the monies, developer being sun golf, this totally contradicted what we'd been told all along!!
Have you any experience on this issues with OVP or Sun golf and whats the best way forward???
p.s i have contacted the uk administrator by e-mail.

'So or you either swap over to another development which is key ready and already has the Licence of First Occupation (AKA LFO or Habitation Licence) or else you litigate in the UK'.
I would like to ask a question on this, knowing that OVP are in administration and possibly soon to be liquidated then if we were to try and transfer to an as built property by transferring our deposit then is there a chance that the property could be taken from us by the liquidators?

I am trying to locate any client's of OVP who purchased on EBCC and used an OVP recommened solicitor other than Conveyancing Spain. Please send me a message on the eyeonspain.co.uk website. Anyone who did use Conveyancing Spain then Ignacio above would be able to help you with some advice. He is very knowledgable in the OVP/EBCC nightmare. If you did use a laywer other than Conveyanving Spain you can also contact Ignacio. I am trying to see if the work provided to me was below the standard required and if I can build a group to take legal advice/action with Ignacio's help if it was.
Marbella-Laywers - thank-you for your helpful advice. I hope my posting is okay with you.

How shocked was i to read yesterday about Ocean View, At last all there scamming and arrogant bull**it has caugh up with them and yes guys your right there all guilty and the sooner XXX XXXX and his maffia con men are behind bars the better, I ashamedly worked for these people in 2004 at Longdon Hall, but only for 11months i knew something was crooked so i left, there was a fast turn over of employees as when they got to know to much XXXX XXXX ( XXXX right hand man ) would make them redundant,
We had many unhappy people including famous footballers and normal hard working people, nice people coming to the hall in tears, frustrated and generaly conned out of there money, These guys are good shrewd and dishonest but XXXX played the big i am splashing out on big lush parties with corpius amounts of champagne, flying in to work in his helicopter or pulling up in his bentley all payed for by his victims.
I never knew for certain what was amiss but i did now i didnt want to work for them anymore,my job was so small and insagnificant but i got to hear alot but not enough.
I wish all Ocean Views Victims very good luck and hope you all get your money back, XXXX has enough property to sell to pay back these poor people, perhaps they should take his home the mill in yoxall and all the other houses he owns in that area but no doubt he has that one covered.
Contacting mr con XXX, sorry XXXX!
I have been trying to contact the ringleader but not had any luck but now we know where he lives i guess that will be the only way of contacting him.
Glitz is the mill easy to find?
