At Consumer Reclaim, we understand how owning a timeshare may have seemed like a dream come true—offering you guaranteed holidays in idyllic locations. But for many, that dream quickly turned into a nightmare of escalating costs, inflexible arrangements, and financial distress. If you’ve been mis-sold a timeshare, we’re here to fight for your justice and ensure you reclaim what’s rightfully yours.
Mis-Sold Timeshares: Why Such a Dream Became a Nightmare
What is Timeshare Mis-Selling?
You may have been mis-sold a timeshare if:
- You were pressured into signing a contract without adequate time to review it.
- Key terms, such as maintenance fees or restrictions on usage, were not fully disclosed.
- Promises of resale opportunities or investment value turned out to be false.
- The agreement did not provide a clear exit strategy, leaving you tied to long-term financial obligations.
- You were led to believe the timeshare would save you money compared to regular holidays but found the costs to be much higher.
Your Legal Rights
1. The Timeshare, Holiday Products, Resale, and Exchange Contracts Regulations 2010
This legislation protects consumers from unfair timeshare practices, including high-pressure sales tactics and lack of transparency. Key protections include:
- A 14-day cooling-off period, allowing you to cancel the agreement without penalty.
- A ban on requiring payment during the cooling-off period.
- Clear and detailed information about costs, rights, and obligations before signing a contract.
2. The Misrepresentation Act 1967
If you were misled about the benefits or costs of your timeshare, you may be entitled to compensation for misrepresentation.
3. Section 140A of the Consumer Credit Act 1974
This law protects consumers who financed their timeshare purchase through credit. If the credit agreement was unfair or tied to a mis-sold product, you can seek redress from the credit provider.
4. Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act
If you paid for your timeshare using a credit card, your credit card provider could be jointly liable for any breach of contract or misrepresentation, making it possible to claim back your losses.
Can You Claim Back
- Timeshare Contract: Review the terms and conditions to identify any discrepancies or unfair clauses.
- Receipts or Proof of Payment: Provide evidence of any deposits, fees, or ongoing payments.
- Correspondence: Emails or letters from the timeshare company that show misleading statements or high-pressure tactics.
- Finance Agreements: If you used credit to purchase your timeshare, include copies of any loan agreements.
- Marketing Materials: Any brochures, advertisements, or sales presentations that may have misled you.
Our expert team will carefully assess your documents and advise you on the strength of your claim.
