Ready2Invest Threatens to Sue for Libel, but Still No Trace of the Money
Jonty Crossick and Ready2Invest have now answered to a stronger request for a full account of moneys that were sent to them. It’s about time we get them to react, after years of sweet talking althought the fundamental question still remains unanswered. Where has the money gone? But then, it appears that my statements may harm buyers if a result of them, the ongoing negotiations being held by the developer to repay buyers are prejudiced.
Also, I am told that I will be sued for defamation/libel if I do not, immediately, remove my statements. On this point only I will add that, thankfully, I do not come under UK draconian libel laws nor jurisdiction…(soon to be reformed, anyhow).
Back to the point I will add that there is no possible negotiation other than a full refund unless it can be proven that every euro was invested in the construction of the property in question. In Spain, if a developer takes advance payments, does not guarantee them and does not use them exclusively for expenses arising or directly connected to the construction of the building (promotional and marketing costs, salaries, AND real estate commissions (!) are not included), then he is deemed to have misspropriated those funds.

Ready2Invest Take Down Notice Dated 24-05-11
I wish that more people had the initiative to take this company – and those ‘running’ it – all the way to the courts. They are nothing but untrustworthy Fraudsters and scammers.
Dear Antonio, Bravo! I have been trying to get monies that they have illegally withheld (my money paid through them for a Project but never passed on to the developer) for over 3 years. They delay, lie, make excuses and clearly have no intention of paying.
We have lost $,000’s of dollars on two different projects and will pursue a winding up order through the courts and personal action against Crossick for dereliction of duty as Director of a business.
This will all come out in time to come that hundreds of people have been scammed.
Keep up the pressure!! Well done.
