Power of Attorney

You should revoce the POA conveniently (but not necessarily) before the same notary public who set up the POA instructing him to advise the authorized respresentative about said revocation.

Hi thank you but im not legally minded and unsure what you mean by ( conveniently (but not necessarily). Could you please explain it for me?

Sorry , i understand it now, just a bit slow this morning, thank you for your advise

hi Done as you suggested, revoked POA.

Cheers

Interestingly, Covid/travel restrictions have served to highlight the disadvantages of NOT having POA in place ... issues with elapsing bank accounts, utilities, etc.

FWIW, we are Spanish residents, and we have re-implemented POA.  

Hi too late now , we revoked this morning as we can't see a really good reason to keep this in place. But thank you for your advise

Hi

I have a house in Torrevieja for 20 years now. Like you I gave P.O.A. to the solicitors at the beginning.  We have spent the last 3 winters there now. Since living there I really see what it's like.  I've been cheated by builders, robbed by so called agents, robbed by builders.  The place is full of crooks, cheats, liars,  and failures who can't make it in their own country.  You just go to your solicitor and tell them you want to close your account and withdraw the P.O.A.  my solicitors were charging about 400 for my non residencia tax including their fee of 130.  I went to a gandor ( something like that ) and they did it for 120 tax and 50 fee.  Solicitors will try to rob you also..   You don't need them nowTake back that POA and close your account.  I'm very nervous and disappointed.  I went to Guardia Civil and filled in forms about the builder who took my money but heard no more.  You are on your own down there . Be careful.  I'm in Dublin now but will be going down soon for the winter.

Hi So sorry to hear about the things that have gone wrong for you. Im glad that ive withdrawn the P.O.A  , especially now . Best of luck for your future here.

Well done. Gestor is the word I was looking  for.  Brexit is flushing out a lot of those chancers.
