A new cold caller, this time from Cheam Surrey and by the name of Thomas Locke Liquidation Services.
They cold call Timeshare consumers to advise them about the liquidation of their Holiday Company and money waiting to be paid out to the victims.
Thomas Locke knows all about the consumer, including all the amounts paid for the membership in the Holiday Club, dates of the agreement and personal details. Scary!
A man called Daniel Gates will get in contact with the Holiday Membership owner after this initial call to arrange for the money to be transferred to the owners account. There is no charge for this as Thomas Locke already made money from the liquidation itself.
The address given for Thomas Locke Liquidations Services is 637 London Road, Cheam, Surrey and a telephone number of 0845 862 1429
Indeed Daniel Gates contacts the owner the next day and explains that yes the money is waiting for them but first Spanish Taxes need to be paid…
He explains the Owner needs to go to the Tax offices in Spain and arrange to get this sorted apart from the fact the paperwork will need to be translated.
However, there was an alternative measure the owner could take to avoid an unplanned trip to Spain and that is to send the money to the Trust Administrators. This is a different company called Bayliss Associates. This money is to be sent direct by cheque or bank transfer or electronically.
Mr. Gates stresses that the tax needs to be paid by a certain date, so decisions have to be made in a hurry.
Money can be paid into a Halifax bank account under the name of M J Bayliss. Sort code is 11 – 03 – 75 , account number is 01646207
The address for Bayliss Associates is 43 Flat 3, Ainsworth Court, Stanley Road, Manchester,M28 3AQ. Telephone number is 0161 850 1192
Please note that research has shown that the above mentioned companies are connected to other dubious companies that have been active in the past.
There is no liquidation of a Timeshare or Holiday Club in Spain where money has been set aside to be paid out, and neither would the tax have to be paid upfront as this would be deducted from the amount.
If you have been contacted by Thomas Locke Liquidation Services from 08458621429 or Bayliss Associates from 01618501192 then please let us know.
