There seems to be a thing going with lawyers’ companies in Mallorca. If before they all seemed to be based in Tenerife, now all companies that are brought to our attention seem to have an address in Mallorca.
This is also the case with the cold caller Fernando y Asociados.
Several inquiries from concerned consumers indicate they have been cold called and referred to Fernando y Asociados for a zoom meeting.
The services offered are claims and “getting out of your timeshare”
It is important you always remember that when receiving such a call that the caller should never ever know you are a timeshare owner unless you provided them with the information.
Genuine legal companies do not cold call and they do not break the Law on Data Protection, so cold calls from so called legal companies talking about your timeshare are a NO NO from the start.
Going back to Fernando y Asociados, consumers tell us they were cold called and did feel rather pressured by the caller to take up a zoom meeting.
The address of the Fernando y Asociados offices is: Guillem Massot, 26 7, 07003 Palma, Balearic Islands
Website: www.fernandoyasociados.es
Telephone: +34 871 181 0** and 019042111**

There is no companies house number displayed on the web or any full name of a lawyer running the company or an associate.
They claim to have over 20 years of experience, but the company was only registered in October 2021. That’s maybe the reason the number is not on display as obviously the consumer could find out through the internet this company was registered only 5 months ago.
The company activity is described as intermediation of accounts and administrative services.
If you received a cold call from an agent referring you to Fernando y Asociados, we would like to have your feedback.

Been scared by these people I came out of timeshare 4 years ago as pearlygrey was open to everyone and haven’t paid maintenance since they were suppose to sent me paperwork which I didn’t receive and have not been in contact in 18 months I no longer pay fees or maintenance but have been told by these people I will have to pay a bill any suggestions on where I stand would be helpful as I have been sca*** to many times
Yes I received a call pressuring me to take a zoom call and telling me I could end up with a bill that could go up to thousands and if I passed on that debt could go to my children am really scared at minute so if sumone can give me advice in where I stand legally as I don’t want debts passed on to my children
Just had a zoom call with this company.
I was approached yesterday from a man called David Bentley supposedly from The Timeshare Council investigation and audit department . Despite having disposed of our time share 6 years ago He said our name was still on the register and asked if we would have a zoom call with this company, which we have just had
The lady we spoke to was persuasive and wanted us to pay £600 per hour solicitors fees to persue a compensation claim which could take 8 to 18 months to complete, only then would they be able to remove our name from the Timeshare Register
We declined their offer.
My Dad was recently cold called and persuaded to have a zoom call with this company. They scared and bullied him and my sister into signing an agreement and handing over credit card details for a considerable sum to supposedly get him and my step-mum out of their old timeshare. Tactics used included asserting he’d have thousands of pounds of unpaid fees if he didn’t pay them to help; if he didn’t pay them the fees would pass to the kids; couldn’t provide information about the supposed fees and how Dad would be pursued (nobody’s asked for fees for years since he told the timeshare he wasn’t paying any longer); wouldn’t allow them time to review the contract and discuss with the other kids… It went on for over an hour, my Dad and sister were quite scared by them. Thankfully Dad got the credit card payment stopped so no loss.
All the companies calling from suposed companies in Mallorca are based from Tenerife, like the offices and zoom calls all generated from the south of Tenerife.
