Target Markets Robert Stones Refuses to return 2% deposit for a broken property deal London United Kingdom
I signed up for a property deal with Robert Stones from Target Markets back in July 2012. The deal promised a fully furnished, fully managed property in the South West of France with a total input value of 2% of the property value. I handed over 2% which was over 6,000 Euros and then waited for the mortgage application to be requested. Robert assured me in writing that if the mortgage was unsuccessful for any reason then the 2% deposit would be returned. I waited for 2 years without being asked for any paperwork for the mortgage and then Robert informed me that he had cancelled the deal! He gave no warning whatsoever! When I asked for the return of my deposit he refused! This man cannot be trusted in any way whatsoever. He takes your money for false deals and then uses pathetic excuses in order to try to keep it. I recommend NEVER dealing with this person or this company.
