| Expo-Guide is new, however the layout and design of the forms gives stopECG cause for concern, indeed we are already getting reports that people may have signed these documents in error. Because this company is new we will rely on readers to update us on how Expo-Guide respond to complaints that the forms were signed in error. We will use this information to advise others who may find themselves in dispute with expo-guide. Please send your experiences and/or scans of contracts and correspondance to stopscamguides@yahoo.co.uk |

At this stage StopECG is going to work from the positive assumption that Expo-Guide has designed or copied these forms (Which show a remarkable similarity to those of Construct Data Verlag AG) in good faith and that if people sign the documents in error Expo-Guide will move to annul disputed contracts and to redesign the forms so as to remove misleading elements.
Should Expo-Guide insist that the contracts are binding and/or refuse to update the forms to remove misleading aspects StopECG will consider the possibility that there is deliberate bad faith. (28th May 2008). Update, 17th June 08, See our Open letter to the owners of Expo-guide |

Whenever filing official complaints, we recommend you keep your letters short, polite and factual. If you feel the original document was misleading, please breifly explain why
You should include copies of all Correspondence you have had with the guide and with their agents. We reccomend you send high quality photocopies and should keep your original correspondence on file. If you have lost or destroyed any documents please note this in your letter of complaint. |

As part of Construct Data’s tortuous legal negotiations in Austria they argued that persons who had paid money had, by the act of paying, accepted the legitimacy of the contract. This argument must be looked at in reverse! Most of the guide contracts purport to last for 3 years, then extend automatically unless cancelled in writing, so the demands you are receiving may not be the total amount the guide is hoping to extract from you. Paying off the current bill to get them of your back could be an expensive mistake if you then receive more demands and have weakened your legal position. |
