Pantherman, What shit are you talking? Proof of the pudding is in eating.

If you are sure of your facts. WHY DON'T YOU TRY WHAT THE DEVELOPER IN CYPRUS DID TO CONOR IN BROAD DAYLIGHT IN UK AND THEN TELL US OF YOUR EXPERIENCE HERE. DO YOU THINK LAW OF JUNGLE OPERATES IN UK?. NO DEVELOPER IN UK WOULD GET AWAY
WITH WHAT A DEVELOPER IN CYPRUS DID TO CONOR.

BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR BIG MOUTH, WHY DON'T YOU PROVIDE SOME
FACTS ABOUT A SIMILAR SITUATION IN UK AND LET US ALL KNOW WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED TO THE DEVELOPER IN UK.

Hi Vinu

I am sure Conor as myself also are thankful for your support in our respective fights with the system over here. I have read and re-read Pan theman's comments and i really think he was talking tongue in cheek. I do not always agree with bhis comments and usually ignore them but on this occasion he was giving Oracle her just desserts and deservedly so.

It is well known that in the UK sentencing is not equivalent to the crime which is why we do have spiralling crime rates.

This seems to be the case over here when relating to property scams and corruption within it.

I fought a builder in the UK and the lies etc etc were believed by the court but luckily i had kept evidence to the contrary and it went my way.

I am now awaiting a court date for trial and to be honest can't wait to get the b-----ds in court for the world to see and hear the truth. We are sick and tired of being branded the baddies and their respective families believing them.



Hopefully this time Daddy will not bail out the main offender. Hopefully this time Daddy will ostracise his beloved offspring and stop the family name being dragged through the quagmire even further.

Thanks for supporting us and regardless of what Oracle says i WILL keep reporting on our progress for you all to see and i know Conor will.

I can tell you of someone Vinu who has 6 ABH (assault occasioning actual bodily harm), 3 breach of the peace, 1 common assault, 1 obstructing the police and 1 handling stolen goods offences on his record who has nothing more than a fine on that record. He stalked me for 18 months and I believe made an attempt on my life. I reported him 4 times to the police and they did nothing.
Unfortunately the UK is no leader when it comes to law and order but I don't think the law is corrupt.

Hi di-di,

People like you deserve all the support you can get. Developers
in Cyprus blatantly flout the law because they know they can getaway with it.

Similarly majority of lawyers flout the rules of Cyproit Law Society i.e acting for the developer and the buyer (conflict of interest), no professional indemnity insurance etc. etc. This would not be permitted in UK.

Cyprus has a lot going for it in other areas, but unless the Cyprus Government brings laws similar to UK, lot of buyers are going to burn
their fingers.

Hi Feisty,

I symphatise with your situation. I know that lot of things are not right in UK, but my point was that what happened to Conor would not be tolerated in UK. Have you ever heard of developer assaulting a buyer
in the first instance because he thinks he will get away with it apart from doing many other things e.g breaking terms of the contract etc. etc. I
know in which country I am very safe if I have to buy a property.

Hi vinu.
I'd just like to thank you for your support and for taking an interest in our cases.
Its very reassuring.
Cheers

Hi Conor my main man!!!

Nice to see you posting albeit a short one this time.

Vinu makes his point succinctly yes? So i will add my thanks to him also and i am sure ALL others in our situation will do so too.

I am sure it has been mentioned before, but the main reason for all these difficulties is lack of research and thinking that the system here is the same as in the UK.

Too many people come here on holiday a few times and then decide to move here and buy the first (or second) property they like without getting a decent lawyer or checking up on the developer.

I accept the fact that many people have ben treated badly and illegally, but a bit more time spent before purchasing a property could have saved all these problems.

My brother and two of my sons have bought here in the last three years and had no problems at all because we checked on the developers and that title deeds were available.

Hii CBBB

Erm there are occasions when no matter how many times you scrutinise developers, builders etc etc you can still get caught believe me.

Our lawyer was recommended, by Brits, to us as well as agents but no matter how hard we tried to verify his credentials he was still batting for both sides and we were not aware of this until some 20 months into our relationship with him.

You were so lucky as were your family but what chance do the rest of us have if the lawyers are corrupt?

We went into this with our eyes wide open, researched and verified by others so what on earth could we have done differently apart from staying in the UK?

I am so pleased all is well with you

I am in no way saying that what happened to Conor is acceptable and am fully supportive of him in his fight for justice. I am also seeking justice myself at present. I just make the point that unfortunately people are getting away with assaults on people in the UK these days, but not because they are not bought to justice, as in Cyprus, but because the system then fails due to over crowding. I'm afraid the UK sends people who have evaded tax or defrauded benefits far easier than they do violent criminals.

As Di Di says, sometimes no matter what precautions you take you encounter problems. Some people use these corrupt solicitors and developers and are lucky and have no problems. If I were to have bought just one property from each of my developers I would have had no problem. In both cases my problems have arisen with the second properties I have bought from both developers. I have just got 6948 Euros compensation from one developer by acting for myself rather than use my solicitor who told me to forget it but have yet to sort my major problem. However, one step at a time.
