SFO Investigation Into Timeshare Legals Ltd and Other Timeshare Claims Companies – What You Need to Know
If you have ever paid a company to help you exit a timeshare, cancel a contract, or recover money, a major ongoing investigation by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) could be highly relevant to you. In December 2024, the SFO announced that it had launched an investigation into a suspected fraudulent timeshare services scheme that has been operating since at least 2018. The investigation remains open, and in October 2025 it was expanded to include additional UK-based companies.
What Is the Serious Fraud Office Investigating?
The SFO is investigating a network of companies suspected of misleading timeshare owners by offering services such as:
- Timeshare exit or termination
- Compensation or refund claims
- Contract cancellation services
- Recovery of historic timeshare losses
Many consumers report being charged large upfront fees, receiving misleading assurances, or being told their timeshare had been cancelled when it had not.
In some cases, owners later discovered they were still legally tied to their timeshare and liable for ongoing maintenance fees. The investigation covers activity dating back to 2018 and has already involved multiple arrests as enquiries continue.
