We purchased a Timeshare from GRAND MIRAMAR, PUERTO VALLARTA, Aug. 2012 for 47,600 USD. This was done on the understanding with our Sales Persons (RICHARD BOUNDS and JUDY BAILEY) that THE PROPERTY PLACE based in Miami (SAM LOPEZ) would purchase some of our other Timeshare Points. An Agreement was drawn up to this fact. THE PROPERTY PLACE kept giving us excuses and false promises regarding a buyer and were very poor at responding to phone calls/emails.
THE PROPERTY PLACE eventually referred us to GOLDSTEIN FUNDING SOURCES based in Los Angeles (SUSAN CRAWFORD/ROBERT MARSHALL) Feb. 2013 because they supposedly had a buyer in Puerto Vallarta for our Points. Then came GOLDSTEIN'S requests for Transfer Fee 13,000 USD Feb. 7; Taxes 12,597 USD Feb. 25; Excess Income Tax 9,750 USD Mar. 21 plus 150 USD wire transfer costs, totalling 35,497 USD. Then a fourth request for State of Nayarit and Municipal Tax for Bahia de Banderas 7,150 USD Apr. 9.
We refused to pay the fourth request so the deal was cancelled.
We have documents stating that if the deal was cancelled, a full refund would be made of all the monies we wired (to a bank account in Puerto Vallarta) as per GOLDSTEIN'S requests.
Now that we are trying to follow up on our refund, Crawford's phone gives the message that the call cannot be completed (disconnected?). The main line is still active (JOANNE COOPER) but is never answered and messages and emails are not returned/replied to.
We have tried to contact RICHARD BOUNDS (GRAND MIRAMAR) multiple times for his promised assistance throughout this whole fiasco but he refuses to return any of our phone calls or emails.
Any assistance in trying to retrieve our funds would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
