In my 8th year now and communications
In my 8th year now and communications have not improved I now seriously doubt my case will ever be resolved by M1 Legal I feel utterly let down Original Review I really hoped that M1 Legal would change in their Comms strategy and that my case would be concluded by now as they assured me would be the case However nothing that M1 Legal did since they saw my original poor review and called me and convinced me to upgrade my review score in March 2022 has neither assured me that they ll improve communications on how cases are progressing with clients or that my case is any nearer resolution After March there were zero comms from them without me asking and even then I was only given the briefest holding reply It s now over 7 years since I paid over 6K for M1 to take my case So in light of the continued lack of communication I ve decided to change my review so that others will be forwarned of the whole story and think twice before parting with yet more money in paying M1 to remediate mis-sold timeshares The Review from March 22 which was changed after M1 saw my original low scoring review is as follows I was frustrated at the length of time it had taken with my case over 6 years and was little miffed at the amount of communication I was receiving from M1 Legal But after stating this in a previous review they rallied to contact me and have assured me that 2022 is our year If this is true communications continue to be a little more regular and my case is concluded in my favour this year I will be glad to raise my review of M1 Legal to five stars

So I m now really puzzled
So I m now really puzzled There are reasonable sceptical questions and queries on here regarding the validity of M1 Legal Mine were placed on here after 8 years of taking them on In response M1 provide statements of how they re managing reviewers cases but never do we see M1 legal call upon one of their supposed numerous success stories to give some assurance and place a bonefide good review of M1 s performance on Trustpilot If M1 Legal had won me I d be willing to sing their praises wouldn t you So I m puzzled - where are they and where s the independent validation

July 2018 we agreed to hire ecc M1
July 2018 we agreed to hire ecc M1 legal nothing happened when we were paying monthly we then paid it off after about a year or so and we got notification of a court date within a couple of months It s now 6 years on we allegedly won the first hearing won the first appeal then lost the 2nd appeal We have no actual evidence this ever went to court and 7 months later we re waiting for final appeal date Besides this we were told that they will not approach the finance company until we have won against clc Even though fractional ownership has been deemed illegal by Parliament and the financial ombudsman makes the finance companies cancel and refund

Over 8 years with no outcome is totally unacceptable
My husband and I signed up with ECC in March 2016 and paid 7500 in legal fees upfront and were informed M1 Legal were dealing with our claim My husband and I visited their offices in Spain and were given copies of everything to date but it is beyond a joke that over 8 years later there has been no outcome My husband died last year and now I feel they are waiting for me to die so they can keep 100 of the claim

Beware of the M1 Legal and ECC alliance
Our Timeshare company went into liquidation in Cyprus so we approached ECC to see if we could make a claim They were very positive of course and thought we had a good case They wanted the Legal Fee upfront so we paid them 6500 big mistake and were assured by the woman there that we would get it back I queried this with her but she further assured me that the fee would be returned without giving much detail The case was then referred to M1 Legal Things then dragged on for nearly 2 years and very little seemed to happen unless I contacted them and that seemed to get them to have another look at our file and move things on a bit I presume that the length of time that it was dragged out gave them some justification for the Legal FeeEventually they did manage to get a settlement from the Finance Company who were used for our initial purchase but this was rather less than the Legal Fee When I contacted ECC to request the return of the Legal Fee I was eventually told that the woman we originally dealt with had left the company we could not get our money back I don t think there was any intention to go after the Timeshare company at all so it was a complete waste of time and moneyThe fact that it didn t go to court should have kept the Legal Fee to a minimum anyway Beware of these people and do not pay any money up front

I signed up for ecc m1legal to pursue
I signed up for ecc m1legal to pursue my claim against clc world recently Feeling very doubtful that I will get my money back quickly after reading these reviews The fee I have to pay is arranged on a monthly payment plan as I have stated I do not have money to pay up front So I would love to hear from anyone can give me the confidence to carry on in the hope that I will get my money from the claim process I would like to see evidence of that I am in my first 14 days and seriously considering exercising my right to cancel before I end up with more financial loss It sounds so good when they explain you will get your money back plus fees and interest so a person who has already lost out financially will be very tempted to get on board After reading all these negative reviews and only one positive one It is not leaving me feeling good about the process at all

Think twice before entering into an agreememt
After hearing an advert for ECC M1 legal about getting mis sold a timeshare I decided to contact them At first they couldn t be more helpful Once my fees were paid I have heard absolutely NOTHING I have requested an update on several occasions and still NOTHING It seems that once they have your money you are quickly forgotten about I put my trust in this company and here I am at the end of another year no further forward My last update was my claim was in the next group that was going to court I was also told that I should hear back before the end of the year and here we are on the last day of the year and have been let down once again I feel hugely disappointed as i became disabled in 2019 and can t work and my husband is the only one who works so paying these fees were very difficult for us The reason I bought into a timeshare was because the sun helped my disabilities now I can t use it I ve lost a lot of money on that PLUS the fees for M1 legal Since entering into the agreement with M1 legal I ve had no extra cash to afford to go abroad meaning that my disabilities have gotten progressively worse My honest opinion is think twice before entering into an agreement as you will be promised the world beforehand and then left hugely disappointed
