La ASA mantiene la denuncia contra Solution for Timeshare

La Autoridad de Normas Publicitarias del Reino Unido (ASA) ha admitido a trámite una reclamación presentada por KwikChex en relación con Solution For Timeshare/. The complaint includes the Swedish version of the site Slapp Din Tiempo Compartido

La investigación de KwikChex se llevó a cabo en el marco de las actividades del Grupo Operativo de Tiempo Compartido https://www.timesharetaskforce.org/ que gestiona KwikChex.

The complaint challenged whether reviews on the sites were genuine – on the basis that reviews with the same wording appeared under different names on the two sites – a clear indication of review fraud.

Connected websites and businesses

The following websites were also traced as being connected by IT traces and phone numbers.

Law of Timeshare https://lawoftimeshare.com

Release Your Timeshare https://releaseyourtimeshare.co.uk/com

It is noticeable that none of the sites publishes information about ownership, legal entity details or contact information – a breach of law under the Companies (Trading Disclosures) Regulations 2008.

The ITRA connection

In addition, follow up investigations revealed links to the ITRA (International Timeshare Refund Action) operations.

All of the connected websites can be found on the Timeshare Business Check website – https://timesharebusinesscheck.org/solution-for-timeshare/

Many of these connected sites also breach such laws – and are connected also with actions taken by the UK authorities in 2012 – https://www.rbwm.gov.uk/web/ts_club_class_holidays_wound_up.htm

ITRA was itself the subject of a related upheld ASA complaint in 2011 – https://www.asa.org.uk/Rulings/Adjudications/2011/1/International-Timeshare-Refund-Action-(incorporated-in-the-Seychelles)/TF_ADJ_49567.aspx#.VRFvsfnF9x4

This again clearly demonstrated the link between ITRA and the notorious ‘Club Class businesses.
