Do I need to take money for a deposit when staying in apartments from Alpha LLC?
Dear Sirs! We were tempted by a trip to Tenerife from Alfa LLC to apartments without food, while we were warned that we had to take 500 euros with us for a deposit for using the equipment, then they say the deposit will be returned to us at the reception before leaving. They said that this is always done, but I doubted Help with advice!

I don’t know what always means, but we just recently returned from Teerife, they didn’t take any deposit from us.
I have not heard about such a pledge from other vacationers.

If this is a "club" vacation in the apartment, then they do it - they take 500 Euros, then they promise to return it.

I don’t know about Tenerife, but in Spain, in Salou, they didn’t take any bail from us. On the island of Hainan (China) they took a deposit of 100 dollars, returned on the day of departure without any problems in one minute even the same banknote. And 500 euros is, in my opinion, too cool!

They didn't charge me for equipment. They took a deposit for a safe and a remote control for 10 euros (what happened, it happened), then everything was returned. And 500 euros, I agree, is somehow too much, what kind of equipment is there?

I can't speak 100%, but it sounds a lot like "everything...at your expense...". never charged me or my friends. The question is different: "Maybe to change Alfa LLC?"

Yes, take it! They take the deposit immediately, at the reception. They gave it back without any problems, but they didn’t check the room.

We gave such a deposit! I don’t know if they would have returned it to us or not, but we spent it on a down payment on a club holiday. Maybe idiots, but we don’t regret it at all!

Don't be afraid, it's a common practice to stay in a club hotel if you're visiting for the first time. This is such a psychological trick of apartment sellers. You will have to attend a presentation at which you will be offered to become a so-called. "owners" of the club room. And these 500 euros will be very handily taken as the 1st installment. And since you no longer feel them in your wallet, you can easily part with them. It's up to you to decide what to do. Just carefully study all the nuances, and believe me, there are a lot of them. For example, we decided not to get involved in such an adventure. And no one has the right not to give you a deposit of 500 euros. Just calmly inform the guide about this at the time of refusal of their "tempting" offer.

One more nuance. It is not the hotel reception that takes 500 euros from you, but the host in the person of your guide (very courteous, by the way, at the beginning))). Get a receipt from him for this amount. You will have to attend the presentation, otherwise you will have problems with the return of the deposit. THIS POINT IS STATED IN THE AGREEMENT WHICH YOU HAVE ALREADY SIGNED. After the presentation, demand a signed document stating that you attended it and did not violate the terms of the agreement to return the amount of the deposit to you. And one more thing - in Tenerife, think least of all about the presentation, enjoy your vacation and fabulous nature! Have a nice holiday!

I completely agree with the previous author. Everything was like that with us. By the way, if someone is really interested in buying a timeshare, then Alpha takes 3 times more than the real price. And their liquidity, due to the crisis, is a big question.

Thank you. Alpha is really silent about "little things" (in their opinion "little things"), but I don't like it
We have decided to cancel Alpha's services.

Fraud in spain! took a deposit for the "SAFETY OF THE APARTMENTS" upon departure, they did not check the apartments. The deposit was not returned, the motivation was not attending the presentation!!! The presentation is a voluntary matter. Please answer who was in this situation. How to return the deposit?
