  • Hi Carol. Not heard from you, how are you getting on with your claim. I got an update letter on Friday, which I am pleased about. Did you say that you were still part of the forum as I tried to find it online and the threads were closed due to lack of use? Is there another forum? let me know.
  • Has anyone actually got their full compensation back recently as promised by Fastline legal?.I have strong doubts as to them being able to deliver on their promises and whether there is actually any money from MRI's seized assets to pay out so many people,if any?.
  • Hello

    I have just joined this forum after being contacted by FastLine Legal. They have investigated my case and have conformed that I am due some compensation back for mis-selling by MRI in Bulgaria. They are 100% certain that I will get my money back, provided I pay up front their legal and translation fees. I have been scammed before and I am very dubious and nervous about paying the legal fees.. only for them to disappear down a black hole... I have read JamesO's post with great interest. Is this a SCAM, or genuine. I have, like others, lost a lot.. money and marriage and it would be a small consolation to get something back. Look forward to any advice from you
  • Hi All

    Just wondering if anyone had any advice for please regarding my last post? Regards
    Amrit
  • Hi JamesO
    Have you heard from FastLine Legal Services, this year and any news on your claim. Have they recouped any money for you.
  • I Have also been cold called by Fastline legal service with the usual translation fee and court fees etc and the 5% commision, how did they get our details. There are a few post dated last year 2013, what was your experience with Fastline.
  • Sorry I have had horrendous computer problems!!! I spoke with Donna and all seems to be going well with my case. Yes, most of the MRI forums have now gone but if you can still register with the MRI owners site. Most topics are about the Developers and aftercare problems but it is good to be kept up to date. Have you heard from Big Markie? I asked him for his up date in October but don't know if he responded as he should be receiving his compensation any time now.
    Hi Asmi, I'm not paying the legal fees until I have my compensation which can take a year. I have only paid for case preparation cost which includes translation and notary. You should ask them again to make it clear and ask for it in writing. Good luck
  • Hi, I received a call today from a lady and I stupidly didn't take down the details as she said she would email me straight back. She said that there is a significant fund to receive compensation from the money I had paid regarding MRI. she said I just need to provide evidence of reservations etc. Does anyone know what this company is and what their contact details are? also is this legitimate? thanks Victoria
  • Hello Carol and Lisa. I forgot that there is 2 comment pages so I wrote on the other 1 first. It is me my account got closed I think because I never use it. Unfortunately I am quite ill at the moment but I did hear from Fastline legal Services 2 weeks ago and they have confirmed that my case has won and that I should hear about receiving compensation within 8 weeks. This has come at the right time as I can now concentrate on getting better. I will let you know as soon as I get my money. :j

    Mark, do not believe a word they say when it comes to timescales. It took 22months and 8 days for my compensation to reach me from money lost to Inside Track SL. When they notify you that its been successful, with all the red tape, it can still take 8-9 months. I also had to chase them a lot for updates and my payment was in Euros not pounds, which I was told, so lost some on conversion. They phoned me last week to see if I wanted to do the 2nd case but I said I would look around to see if It can be done quicker. If I find a quicker way will pass info on. Good luck but I think you should plan on getting your compensation next year.
