| Heads up. If anyone here has paid monies to Churchills Innovative Solutions or any other name that they trade under from the Isle of White in the UK to check the investment has been paid to the developers. I have information that it looks like they are going or have gone bust. I am actively chasing Mr. Goldthorpe for my monies but it is not looking good. Skogsy |

| Skogsy It appears that we were the first of the British being scammed, but appears that there will be a long list following us, yet still they (with the help of the North Cyprus Gov) try to sell property of which a majority is built on mortgaged land (that why theres no kocans in a great deal of cases). The place should by now carry a Government Health Warning ABAG http://latchfords.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!AED4FE7679CA3C33!923.entry |

| My nipper works in the same office block as Churchills, they closed up some time back even though their website is still up and running. Their phone numbers are still working but no-one picks up. Having said that, estate agents are dropping like flies in the UK right now. Can't tell you more than that. Lem |

| Sarajane I only know what I posted. I am sure or at least hope that Jack is not involved in the what appears to be the demise of Churchills. He may just be a victim of the misfortunes of Mr. Goldthorpe as are many. If you know him well then he should be able to tell you his side of the storey. What concerns me apart from the fact that I am chasing him for traceability of my monies paid is that he is still actively marketing several developments here and also in other locations around the world and given the present situation with Churchills I would advise any potential investors to be very careful if they do choose to have Mr. Goldthorpe et al deal for them. I know there are happy investors from a few years back who dealt successfully with Churchills but that was before the Estonia fiasco that ultimately contributed to Churchills likely downfall. Skogs |

| SaraJane Thanks. Like I said it was just a heads up for others. I am already in a villa in Esentepe bought via another agent with no problems. I was going ahead with a coupel of units at Caesars but not anymore. Along with others I am also chasing Churchills for allocations of my funds for other investments in other countries so we will see what happens. No real probs for me but for the less fortunate it could hurt financailly. Good luck to all anyway and thanks for the supporting posts. Skogsy |
