Really? They are catching money from everything. I think the maintance fee is high enough to pay for this temporary card no?
Do you call 20 pounds a small charge when people are told to it was for free?
If you have a family of 4 persons (2 children) going on beach holiday for 2 weeks, the total cost is 80 pounds a day x 14 = 1120 pounds = 145 euro!!! I do not call this small money
When you meet with Andrew and Alison they promise you the world to get you signing the contract. Then as time goes on all their promises either become down right lyes, or the things they offered for free, end up costing more money. They are masters at selling, but not delivering on their promises. Look at all the promises we were made at Regency Beach that ended up being not true, or requiring more money.

Very strange that MAM Investments LTD using this the above adddress is on the contracts for RB. it states on companies house site there are no overseas involvement with the above.
We just had our Egyptian lawyer take a look at the police reports against Andrew, Alison, and Hossam ( PHW manager). He as well agrees they are correct and authentic.

He also said he knew a couple of the Hurghada police names in the reports, adding even a greater level of authenticity.

He is going to do more checking on them, and possibly contact the police officers for more information.

Our lawyer said he has seen many police reports in Egypt, and they all look exactly like these.

Police Repopts Against Andrew and Alison

hi everybody
all police files mention hour / date/signatures/grades of police officers/names etc.... Even in European police stations statements do not get stamps, just the signatures of all parties, which is also the case in these reports. Maybe this is different in England.
Any mention of who the directors of it are? It looks very shifty that when people have phoned, they won't discuss anything about it. Wonder if it's one of those companies that answer for loads of others? Sorry dont know what you call them

We were both lucky enough to come across the info about his previous disqual early enough to withdraw - others haven't been that lucky.
We would agree. Anyone that has put their funds with the Regency Brand should get back what they have in, and get out soon. There is just to must bad press about this company. It is just to much of a risk. They have caused much problems for so many.
God bless all!
Rumors? Everyone will soon find out what Andrew and Alison have been doing in Hurghada, Egypt. It will be a shock to all! Get your money out now, while you can.

I think there are major concerns about the actual ownership of the towers. Without ownership being registered, then who knows? I was under the impression that until it's registered it's not fully yours. Does anyone know what the law in Egypt says about this?

One of my main worries is all these different company names owning different things. For example we started with PHW, then we were told it was First Leisure Ltd that owned RB, then we found that it was two Egyptians (name unknown) and now it is a completely different company name altogether. How can you pay a deposit to buy from a company (phw) and it turn out to be a completely different owner?
So this person must have seen the security glass and I am 100% sure that she wasn't terrible happy with what she found. I do believe she is happy with her apartment but the question is: is it in reality her apartment (and the apartments of all the other owners)? Because the documents I have seen from the Egyptian owner tell me a whole other story.
People's life savings are at stake here , we are not speaking about 1.000 British pounds here but a lot, lot more. And when this amount of money is at stake I think it is only just and right to be very concerned.

I don't blame ******* for anything nor the people who know her, I'm just putting facts but she did not reply in a nice polite way. The only thing I wanted to make clear is that it is at least odd that when everything is okay and you are convinced that you did the right thing and there is no reason to worry, one is selling quickly without informing the forum. If it would have been 2 years or so.. I could understand but after 3 months???? And if there is such a big interest in the apartments that they can be sold at offers that can not be refused, why not inform the people of this forum?? That's what I would do: "hey guys whoever wants to bail out, now is the moment!" That would have appreciated, no?
God I have been all afternoon reading this . I am astounded by some of the things that are getting posted here.My advice to all buyers if you have any doubt for gods sake pull out.Personally I would. Now is not the time to be buying abroad anyway unless you are going to be making it a permanent move. The rental market is dead now that is why so apartments are on the market. Builders are going bust every day. So buy a resale if you really want one ,some people are desperate to sell.

I don't have property in Egypt.I have it in Spain which I bought 12 years ago.The builders there would not stop building and have overbuilt.People now cannot sell and are really getting themselves into all sorts of financial messes listening to agents who promise them the earth from rental. In this day it will not happen so be aware.

As for Mr Harris there has been a lot of mud thrown at him.I would say he is not doing himself any favours trying to argue his case on a public forum.If you felt people are trying to ruin your reputation you should have complained at the very start of this post and had your lawyer get it removed. People have the right to be angry and find out the truth as it is their money and life savings we are talking about here. Why don't the people involved here not all get together and hire someone to get to the bottom of this if they want to carry on. You could contact watchdog as well.
First of all , I don't know for the others, but I do not have a sad miserable live.

I do not wish to go into a personal discussion with you ********. I did not throw mud at you or use bad language. I'm only trying to present facts without defending or attacking anyone.

The fact is that you have never come forward saying that you have started working for PHW. Another fact is that not too long after arrival (since you have only been there 3 months) you have put your apartment for sale. These two facts you never shared spontaneously with the forum. People were truly worried for you when they saw your apartment was for sale. Selling is your own private business but it is strange though that on this forum a lot of people were feeling uncomfortable about their investment whereas you always tried to clear things out, labelling everything as malicious rumors but at the same time putting your apartment up for sale.

And as far as my person is concerned, I have put facts.
Fact: the security glass Fact: I have seen the documents about RT, I do have the phone number of the owner. Fact: Andy does not own RT nor the land, although PHW let people believe they do. Fact: the restaurant and shops do not belong to them , they rent it. Fact: there is reason for all owners to be very worried. Fact: AH could only sell the apartments to himself not to others according to the documents of the owner which I have seen. Fact: AH past in England. Fact: the Egyptian law.

All above are facts and not crap.
Also what this lawyer said (the one AH said he dismissed) about several apartments not belonging to them is true. We spoke to the lawyer of the Egyptian owner. There is a big problem between AH and the Egyptian owner of the building this being the raison for the glas securit window closing of the whole resort. AH got a specific period of time to finish and sell a certain number of apartments. This period has expired. They wanted to get back in to take back what belonged to them, there was trouble, they went out and there was the securit glass. This is true. The man who owns Regency Towers is suing Andrew and Alison right now for breach of contract. He is going to take back all the apartments and the building.

Now they are trying to keep him out of the building. There is big trouble now. We have also heard the same thing, that the government he now getting involved with the problems with Andrew and Alison. There have been so many complaints, that that feel it is time to step in.
I have been hearing the same things about AH. He is in serious trouble now in Hurghada! The police reports are true. We have also heard he has been renting out the apartments at Regency Towers, not tell the owners and keeping the money. There is numerous police reports against Andrew and Alison and many pending lawsuits as well.
According to Egyptian law if I get into an apartment , put a door and a lock, I'm the owner unless proven the contrary by for example witnesses etc... meanwhile I will stay in the apartment....you understand the securit glass now?
I understand the need for information and hard evidence.
As far as the police reports are concerned we are looking into the matter through several lawyers and I hope to have more news today or tomorrow.

Also what this lawyer said (the one AH said he dismissed) about several apartments not belonging to them is true. We spoke to the lawyer of the Egyptian owner.

Hi everybody , it took me about 3 hours to read trough all the tread. Unfortunately i have read it after buying in the Regency Towers and not before. There is a lot of things I can confirm, but for the Towers only, I don't know anything about the other projects.
1. Lyndsay does work for AH and PHW as an accountant and she did put her apartment up for sale. Seems is trying to pull out.
2. A and A promise a lot but afterwards it changes. For instance selling the apartments with 4 cards giving free entrance to Dreambeach or (on other site) a private beach??? You only get 2 cards with the owner's picture on it (how can you give it to people renting the apartment?) at the back it says 20 egyptian pounds to enter Old vic (not Dream Beach). Where is the free entrance? Everbody living in Hurghada pays 20 pounds to enter Old Vic. Explanation Alison: the entrance is free , the 20 pounds is for a chaise long and matras hahahaha
3. For a fact there a many police reports on AH and PHW and there have been many police intervenances
4. Regency Towers is a prison now, they have put before the Iron gate one big securit glass. The door is all the time locked. You are not on holiday but in the prison. This has a reason , but it would be too long to explain why, it has to do with the Egyptian Law but one thing is for sure it is not for security reasons as they will try to explain to you.
5. The government will put a police officer at the entrance of the towers because of all the troubles
6. I feel sorry for Zman , he was right when he tried to warn the people and he was right about the police reports, and the fact his english was not so good should not be important, his intentions were good
7. AH and A are not answering calls or emails, it is like running a marathon trying to catch them.
8. They do pretend to own the place although they do not. The building does not belong to them, bar and restaurants down are rented.
9. When buying indeed it feels like you are buying from them not from another company. I also was led to believe I was buying from PHW.

It is a long sad story......
It looks as though we got out at the right time. We had no idea these people have been in so much trouble currently as well as in their past, hence the government shut down of their holiday property scam firm. Had we known this, we certainly would not have talked to these people, let alone given them our money.

We hope everyone else takes heed and can get their funds back in time.

But we have a bad feeling many uninformed investors may not know what Andrew Harris has done in his past, and may get stung by these people in the future.

We also agree with simpywimpy that the British government needs to be contacted ASAP to stop this business firm from ripping off future investors.

Does anyone know where to start?


Lets ban together to help others.


We wish all the luck in the world to everyone who is still involved with this bloke.

Information correct to 22/09/2008


Name: ANDREW JOHN HARRIS Address: SILVER BIRCH KENILWORTH ROAD HAMPTON IN ARDEN BIRMINGHAM Postcode : B92 0LW Date of Birth : 06/01/1969 Nationality: BRITISH Number of disqualification orders: 1 Disqualified From: 11/04/2005 To: 10/04/2014 Reason: CDDA 1986 S8
CHEATING holiday firm Somerville Leisure PLC has bitten the dust, we're delighted to report. The company flogged its shares to holidaymakers, who were then entitled to join something called the Dream Leisure Club. But: Buyers were misled into believing they could sell their shares on the open market. In fact, the market for the shares was next to non- existent. Sales reps took excessive commission.
Somerville Leisure was insolvent. There were no decent company accounts. Those fine people at the Companies Investigation Branch of the Department of Trade and Industry have now had Somerville Leisure put into compulsory liquidation by the High Court. Before the DTI obtained the court order, the directors had slyly tried to have the company put into voluntary liquidation, which would have left them in control.
In making the compulsory order, Mr Justice Rimer said the directors had displayed "a somewhat secretive enthusiasm to appoint voluntary liquidators and with it, at least initially, an enthusiasm to maintain themselves in the saddle as managers". If you've lost out you should contact the Official Receiver at 21Bloomsbury Street, London WC1B 3SS. The directors, who refused to co- operate with the DTI, were John Patterson, 34, of Stanley, County Durham; Paul Harris, 41, of Stafford; and Jonathan O'Brien, 37, of Stoke on Trent.

O'Brien was previously a director of Aroma Health International Ltd, which was liquidated by Customs and Excise in August last year. For the record, he is currently a director of another company called Premier Law Line Ltd. Harris is a director of European Legal Services, Asset Guardians, R&V Tower and Premier Law Line. Just thought you should know.
Andrew Harris Busted in United Kingdom



HOLIDAY COMPANY WOUND UP AFTER DTI INVESTIGATION
A company which misled people into buying its shares in order to obtain exclusive holidays has been wound up following a DTI investigation.
Essex-based company Somerville Leisure plc was wound up by the High Court on 19 September 2001, in the public interest.
The company sold its own 'non-voting' shares to investors who were then entitled to join a holiday club called the Dream Leisure Club.
A petition to wind up the company showed that members of the public had been misled into believing that they could sell their shares on the open market, when in fact there was no effective market for these shares. There was inadequate separation of the affairs of the company and the club.
Those involved with the company were taking excessive commissions for sales of shares and there were no adequate accounting records for either the company, Somerville Leisure plc, or the holiday club, Dream Leisure Club. The investigation also discovered that the company was insolvent.
Investigators also reported that the directors had been unwilling to co-operate with the enquiry.
The petition was presented following an investigation carried out by the Department's Companies Investigation Branch (CIB) under section 447 of the Companies Act 1985 which enables investigators to require a company to produce its records. If it is in the public interest the Secretary of State may use the information obtained to petition the Court to wind up a company or to disqualify the company's directors.
The petition was presented on 1 August 2001 and the Official Receiver was appointed provisional liquidator of the company on 6 September 2001. The Official Receiver's role was to protect and preserve the assets and financial records of the company until the hearing of the winding-up petition.
By virtue of the winding up order on 19 September, the Official Receiver is now the liquidator of the company and has a responsibility to investigate why the company failed and the conduct of the directors in relation to its affairs.
The company was incorporated on 9 July 1998. Its registered office and trading address is Stapleford Aviation Centre, Stapleford Aerodrome, Stapleford Tawney, Essex, RM4 1SJ. Its former registered office and trading address was at Somerville House, 20/22 Harborne Road, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B15 2AA.
The directors of the company are Mr Paul Edward Harris, Mr Jonathan Christian O'Brien (both appointed on 9 July 1998) and Mr John Patterson (who was appointed on 3 December 1999). The secretary of the company is Mr Paul Edward Harris.
On 1 December 1999 a Gibraltar based company of which Mr Patterson was the sole director at the time, acquired all 500,000 10p voting shares issued by the company. The shares were purchased from Mr Andrew John Harris (no relation to Mr P Harris), who was a director of the company from 27 November 1998 to 1 September 2000. Mr A J Harris trading as A J Harris Associates entered into the only agreement with the company to supply holiday accommodation.
The petition was initially opposed by the company, as was the application for the appointment of the Official Receiver as provisional liquidator. In opposing the matter the company gave various undertakings to the Court to cease offering any new shares or club memberships and not to dispose of any of its assets until the Court reached a decision.
In the event, the company did not serve any evidence opposing the petition but in the meantime, during the currency of the adjournment, on 21 August 2001, without reference to the Court or to the Secretary of State, resolved to be wound up voluntarily and appointed Mr Hasam Iman Mirza and Mr Clive Robert Hammond, Insolvency Practitioners, as joint voluntary liquidators.
The adjourned hearing of the Secretary of State's application to appoint the Official Receiver provisional liquidator came on before Mr Justice Rimer on 6 September 2001. Rimer J ordered the appointment of the Official Receiver as provisional liquidator notwithstanding the intervening appointment of voluntary liquidators. In making the order Rimer J stated that the directors had:
"... displayed, it would seem, a somewhat secretive enthusiasm to appoint voluntary liquidators and with it, at least initially, an enthusiasm to maintain themselves in the saddle as managers".
On 19 September 2001 the petition to wind up the company was heard by Mr Registrar Jaques. The matter was unopposed and a winding up order was made.
All public enquiries concerning the company should be made to:

........And anyone can set a website and call themselves a developer with absolutely no experience, and a dark secret in their past of a DTI Disqualification in Britain for a Holiday property scandal.

The evidence is right in front of everyones face, and has been for some time. All the proof anyone needs to get out of these bankrupt, lying, pretend developers.
I concur. This little stunt by Andrew is just another way to keep investors sending their hard earned money to them. It proves nothing, all talk never any action from Andrew.
I found out recently that though Regency Towers was already built many years ago, and Andrew just needed to finish the pools and in the insides of the flats for the Egyptian man that owns the building. It still is not finished today. It was supposed to be completed over one year ago! Now Andrew Harris is being sued by this Egyptian man who owns Regency Towers.

So anyone who thinks a little hole in the ground shows anything at Regency Beach. Think again. Andrew Harris has never been a developer, and when given the small task of finishing a few flats and a couple pool in RT, he did not have the money or the experience. Subsequently has been sued by the owner.

Pretty scary.

I believe everyone needs to think back to the Holiday scandal Andrew Harris was involved in here in Britain. That should tell you everything about the man, and his so called developing company Hurghada.
And anyone can hire a young boy for a 100 Egyptian pounds to dig a small hole in the ground with a scooper. Then Andrew tells everyone you pay up. I am not buying it!

But that again it is just a blog that anyone can write. Again no hard evidence. Just an investor that has got their money back.

Pics have been taken today which shows building work has begun.

I am still doing my homework on these companies and hopefully will be able to get back with more information. Their tracks are very well covered.
And if all of this is correct and normal business practice why does AH not just state all the companies which are involved and stop all this so called speculation. Were you able to get out Dakota without losing large funds? I wish you luck!

Were you able to get out Dakota without losing large funds? I wish you luck!
I am working on it.
Has anyone found any information on MAM Investments Ltd all I can locate is a co in cairo which construct roads and bridges if this is the same.
Wonder if Lyndsay can help where have you gone?
Has anyone seen the police reports?
New photos are available now showing work has started on RB.
All appears to have gone quiet on the police side, wonder if PHW or AH
are still under investigation.
I am just thankful I got out early, before losing a huge fortune to these con artists.

I wish everyone else luck getting out before they lose much more.
We need to get as much information on this mysterious new company Andrew Harris has just set up. I am sure there are many investors who have no idea what these people are up to........... I feel sorry for them.
Thank you investment pains. We should be extremely vigilant on finding out what Andrew and Alison Harris are doing in the future.

If we can protect just one investor from getting involved with these people we'll have succeeded!

They have now changed the name of their company for Regency Beach which looks very suspicious to us.

Remember what they did here in the UK to so many poor investors with the holiday scandal. They seem to be doing this now in Egypt.

If anyone seeing this has any information on what these people are doing please post it here. It could very well save someone a big headache and a large sum of money.

God's love to you!

We just had our deposit returned! With great relief. We recommend everyone do the same. This has been complete headache with these people. We wish everyone luck getting out of business with Property Hotspots Worldwide.

God bless and Love to all.......
Congratulations......
it took such a long time. I think all of us on this thread now have our deposits back.

What a joke! Everyone mark my words here. I believe they are trying to gather a much money as they can to skip the country. Wait and see.

They are in serious trouble in Hurghada.

I can't believe why anyone would give PHW (or whatever they have now changed their name to) a single pound.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!!!! 'Staggering popularity of the infamous.....' And still people get taken in by it all. I wonder why they need to make these offers if everything is selling so quickly?
AH himself told me he was setting up a new company with the egyptian land owners offshore that would handle the building and sale of the RB development. He says it's normal business practice to do this - I think we should have been made aware of it at the time.

I made my reservation with PHW originally and thought they were the owners, then came the second company - first leisure - which my solicitor at the time (Philip Morris) seemed surprised I had never heard of.

Now it's a company we are unable to track or trace. It's far too risky for me. All by a man who is BANNED from being a director of a company in the UK for previous fraud allegations or dodgy dealings in a holiday company scam.

The choice to continue or not is with the investor but I am more than happy with my decision not to be involved.
Why don't you demand to know exactly who you're dealing with.

If you enter a contract with 1 company, you shouldn't suddenly be switched to dealing with another. I don't know about Egyptian law, but in English law the assets of 1 company cannot be just handed over to another - so who owns what, who's being paid for what, where's the money going, & why the Hell would anyone deal with such an obviously dodgy setup?
I've only heard things from other people relating to threats made by AH but have nothing to substantiate this. I just feel it's an awful lot of money to risk on something that is so uncertain.

There has been no clear idea given by Ah of who owns what are where the money is going. Apparently he is setting up another company for the RB development with himself and two Egyptian men via another country and it is that, who will have your money. I'm sure it would be almost impossible to get it back if something went wrong and I just wasn't willing to take that risk.
Do you know the new company name? Sounds like a very shady situation.

I can't believe anyone would remain involved with these developer's.
"Concerned as PHW is not mentioned on the contract for RB. Also have read ah is setting up a new co for the RB development which I was not aware of.Sure his investers would be notified of this? All is very unsettling."

Andrew Harris has probably changed the name of his company because of all the bad press he has been getting for bad business practice, and his bad behavior toward investors.

VERY SCARY!

If anyone finds out what the new name for Andrews company is. Please post it here ASAP.

Everyone needs to get the word out.

Do your homework on these people. Everyone is pulling out of Property Hotspots Worldwide and Regency Beach at an alarming rate.

I am sure it is partly due to the fact that when everyone was introduced here to the fact the Andrew Harris was shut down by the British government after a Holiday property scandal.

Here is his disqualification.

Thanks. I too feel there is alot more to this situation and feels very risky in continuing with the RB developement. Did anyone ever get to see the police reports filed?
I've only heard things from other people relating to threats made by AH but have nothing to substantiate this. I just feel it's an awful lot of money to risk on something that is so uncertain.

There has been no clear idea given by Ah of who owns what are where the money is going. Apparently he is setting up another company for the RB development with himself and two Egyptian men via another country and it is that, who will have your money. I'm sure it would be almost impossible to get it back if something went wrong and I just wasn't willing to take that risk.
welcome back ********. I can honestly say the same about not regretting pulling out. I would never be comfortable entrusting my money to a man or company with such a background of dishonesty. His subsequent behaviour and posts on here just go to confirm that

We got out of this developer PHW a couple months ago. Thank god! We have not looked into this site( http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=961631&page=42&highlight=PHW ) since then. Thought we would take a look to see if everything ended up working out for people.

It is obvious PHW is causing serious strife for many people.

We hope everyone is able to get their money back and move on.

Andrews statement reads very strange. It reads like he is trying to hide, cover up, justify, and defend behaviors he has been exhibiting over the last few months.

A very confused man.












ANDREW JOHN HARRIS / ALISON HARRIS / PROPERTY HOTSPOTS - FIRST LEISURE, LTD. / MAM INVESTMENTS, LTD. HAVE RESOLD A NUMBER OF PROPERTIES WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OR GRANTED PERMISSION OF THE ORIGINAL PURCHASERS.

ANDREW JOHN HARRIS / ALISON HARRIS / PROPERTY HOTSPOTS - FIRST LEISURE, LTD. / MAM INVESTMENTS, LTD. RESOLD THE ORIGINAL BUYERS PROPERTIES AT A SUBSTANTIAL, AND VERY LARGE INCREASE IN PROFIT FROM THE ORIGINAL CONTRACTED SALE TO THE FIRST BUYERS.

A. ANDREW JOHN HARRIS / ALISON HARRIS / PROPERTY HOTSPOTS - FIRST LEISURE, LTD. / MAM INVESTMENTS, LTD. HAVE ENGAGED IN ILLEGAL ACTS OF SELLING CONTRACTED PROPERTIES WITHOUT PERMISSION OR KNOWLEDGE OF ORIGINAL BUYERS ACCORDING TO EGYPTIAN LAW.

B. ANDREW JOHN HARRIS / ALISON HARRIS / PROPERTY HOTSPOTS - FIRST LEISURE, LTD. / MAM INVESTMENTS, LTD. HAVE RETAINED ALL PROCEEDS FROM THE ORIGINAL SALES, AND THE LARGE PROFITS FROM THE SUBSEQUENT ILLEGAL SECOND SALES.

THIS IS INFACT "DOUBLE SELLING" UNDER OUR EGYPTIAN LAW. THIS IS THE BREAKING OF TWO SERIOUS LAWS HERE IN EGYPT. THE PENALTIES ARE SEVERE AND WILL BE PURSUED AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL THAT THE EGYPTIAN LAW WILL ALLOW FOR EACH SUCH OFFENSES.

THIS IS NOW BEING TAKEN TO THE EGYPTIAN COURTS INVOLVING A LARGE NUMBER OF INVESTORS IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST ANDREW JOHN HARRIS / ALISON HARRIS / PROPERTY HOTSPOTS WORLDWIDE - FIRST LEISURE, LTD. / MAM INVESTMENTS, LTD.

ANDREW JOHN HARRIS / ALISON HARRIS / PROPERTY HOTSPOTS WORLDWIDE - FIRST LEISURE, LTD. / MAM INVESTMENTS, LTD. WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE IN EGYPT FOR THESE ILLEGAL TRANSACTIONS. WE ARE VERY CONFIDENT OF THE JUDGES / COURTS FINDINGS / ORDERS AND OUTCOME.

This statement from Andrew proves a man in serious desperation who is losing everything. Nobody would write these silly very desperate letters, and then have their employees post them.

Plus its signed as "Andy Harris Group CEO". Maybe the British government should have a look at this? He is not allowed to represent any company anywhere in the world, until he pays back the money from the holiday scams he was disqualified for in Britain.

This is a man in serious trouble!

Look at their past. Does the British government lie? CHECK THE DISQUALIFICATION! Andrew Harris have been involved in these property scams for many years. WAKE UP PEOPLE !

DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!

Search how many investors are unhappy with these people.

A man falling into grave dispare and desperation seeing their business falling apart at a hugely rapid pace now. All they know is a life of trying to obtain the money of good hearted people, and using this for their own devious aspirations.

They are now threating everyone here. Would honest business people act this way?

Everyone is pulling out of the Property HotSpots Worldwide brand, and running in the opposite direction from these bankrupt con artists.

Thanks to this forum, people were able to find out about the past criminal activities of these people. They have been EXPOSED here.
When she started this tale on here she must have thought that there was no chance whatsoever that an MSE poster would come strolling into the PHW offices in Hurghada where she works. Oh dear.

And, having been caught out completely, she continues to post as if she retains any credibility. This has made my day.

More please.
Oh Lyndsey, your post AS AN EMPLOYEE OF PHW is a joke!

And in works time too? OOh, getting paid to support your boss online. Lovely!
....... It was a hoot! We had about 6 or 7 people with some interesting stories about A&A.

We are doing more research with the police and an employee of PHW into a violent incident that happened at the Towers a few weeks ago involving a few investors.

Will get back to all of you as soon as we clarify what happened.

Sorry for the delay. But we want to get the facts for everyone.
can't help worrying they'll be waving goodbye to that 40% too
I wholeheartedly agree with you simpy. I believe these people are going to lose their 40%. I remember some time ago someone posted that PHW have never built anything before. I would not like to use my money as an experiment for their first project. I want to go with an experienced developer.

Plus, I think if they have lost as many clients as everyone has said, They might just leave the country.
We all have to work to get the word out to all the unsuspecting investors that stand to lose all their money with these people.

Can you post the blog link so we can all see it. Thank you.
which also means the investors have to part with a huge wad of cash! It would have been over twenty thousand pounds for me!
I find it hard to believe that anyone would pay the first installment for Regency Beach. With all the serious trouble they are in, how will this development ever get built? In my opinion it will never get off the ground. I think the few people that have stuck with this developer PHW will all get burned in the end.

What if they end up in jail, or leave the country with everyones first installment?

If 50 people give this installment, it could equal as much as 1 million quid or more!



Enough to go to another country and start this mess allover again with new investors.
