We are receiving some very worrying emails from consumers who unfortunately paid to companies such as Aegis Direct or Meridian Litigation Advisors.
It seems that the consumers who paid almost a year ago to these companies, are now approached by other cold callers who have all the details of their payments.
The consumer is informed that the companies have closed, they have gone into liquidation or simply did not pay the “solicitors” who were going to take care of their claims and relinquishment. So, the bad news is that the consumer won’t receive the services they paid for.
This is of course quite upsetting, and it also seems very awkward that these calls are received just a couple of months before the 12-month contract expires and the consumer should receive a refund if the services weren’t delivered.
Why was the consumer not notified about this before? Was there not this mention in the agreement they could not claim a refund after paying, not even in the 14-days period straight after paying? And this was explained because the lawyers start straight away on their case!
But now, 10 months later, the story is that there was no money received, their file has not been touched and “we are really sorry, but we cannot do anything for you”
Well, there is something they can do for the consumer…
Help them with claiming a refund under the consumer act if they paid by credit card.
But this help comes with a price tag, if the claim is successful, the supposed legal company wants a 25% of the awarded refund.
For those consumers who are looking on the internet if indeed Aegis Direct or Meridian Litigation have gone into liquidation, please find the links to the Spanish Companies’ House where you can see that these companies are still actively registered.
