    No, because I have never bought a timeshare. I have however worked in the travel industry for nearly 40 years and appeared on a number of consumer TV programmes warning people of the dangers of approaching, or being approached by timeshare resellers who always want money up front and in 99.9% of cases do absolutely nothing to help but spin a yarn for a period of time until they disappear.

    I mentioned the firm of solicitors above because they are legitimate solicitors, not 'advisors' or recruiters, I have no links to them whatsoever but they do seem to know what they are doing.
