Some years ago I was caught like so many others in this scam and ended with Reclaim finding reasons why they would not refund any money.
I have tonight had a phone call from someone claiming to represent Reclaim and saying that a refund was available but I would have to travel to Lanzarote to sign all the papers in court.
I had to pay £169 for the 'holiday' and they would do the rest.
I asked when this would have to be paid and was told that this would be required before Registration could take place, in other words, now!
I was asked how I would pay and then the penny dropped.
They wanted my bank card details.

Beware

Well done for flagging it up. Did you find anything about the company offering this "service" a name or a phone number?

There are numerous timeshare and consumer forums you might consider posting the same on a few of those, I wonder how many people in other places are getting these calls...

Isn't this a similar 'offer' to the one in Tenerife at the end of last year when 30 Brits got locked up?

Spenders no1 for live sport.
