This company presented themselves as a Professional Investment Company.
To use their own training department words (as shown in the Tonight Programme of 27th July), after our visit to their exhibition in our city, they Battered us to hell with phone calls from their tele-sales team based in Marbella.
Unfortunately, as we were seriously thinking about an investment and had been impressed with the DVD about the company, that we were given at the exhibition, we didn't take on board the numerous phone calls.
We made the decision to go to Bulgaria on an inspection trip. As we see now, this was the BIGGEST mistake of our lives. We were pressured into remortgaging and told by no less than 3 MRI representatives in Bulgaria to buy as much as we could, and that we would be mad (their words) to miss out on this opportunity
The representatives in Spain & Bulgaria were told we were not risk takers and this was our 1st venture, but they introduced us to the ST. Ivan development in bansko. We were told that on our return home we would have 30 days in which to arrange to send the first phase of the monies required, over. We duly arranged the remortgage, but the initial contracts took 4-5 months in total to reach us. Consequently we have been paying an interest only mortgage since JULY.
As for the ST. IVAN DEVELOPMENT, to date it is almost 9 MONTHS behind schedule. Completion should have been end November. As novices, we feel a PROFESSIONAL INVESTMENT COMPANY, how MRI presented themselves, should have advised us fully about possible delays and the fact that, as we now know, the Developer didn't have full plans licensed. Had we have been told this we would NEVER have agreed to meet with the waiting Lawyer & Financial Advisor they had lined up on our return from our long inspection day.
This company is all about getting as much money as possible from its clients. Bearing in mind we hadn't received any contracts, we had numerous phone calls & emails from another MRI department, just 2-3 months after our trip, trying to get us to send them money for furniture packs. They said it would be in our interest to get this organised. Thankfully we didn't respond to this, but we know people have. How much money has MRI made sitting on clients money for furniture packs that, in our case, are not able to be installed yet.
Another money making scheme for them is to get you to join the AFTERSALES Team (this was 249 in 2006). Again we were wise and declined, because we felt that in with the development only just under way, their services were not needed at this time. Surely, as their clients, a professional company should keep you informed and updated without the need to con more money out of you.
One of us is in our late fifties and had we never got involved with MRI we would have payed off our mortgage in JULY this year. Because of them, unless we recover all our monies, we will NEVER OWN our home as we can barely afford the Interest Only payments we are making.
Like other clients have reported, MRI do not want to know when things are going wrong, and then decide to tell you they are just estate agents.
We have so much more actual events to report about this Company, but will cease at the moment.
We will not GIVE UP on getting justice, even if it takes years.
