A court has found that a Silverpoint timeshare agreement was written in perpetuity, meaning the contract did not include a clear end date or fixed term.
In this case, the judge ruled in favour of the client and declared the Silverpoint contract null and void. Silverpoint was ordered to pay £22,000.
Notably, the award was made even though the client had used the timeshare benefits over a number of years, between 2011 and 2017. The decision underlines that a court can still set aside a contract where the terms are found to be invalid, regardless of some past use of the product.
For anyone following Silverpoint court cases and contract challenges, this perpetuity contract ruling adds to the growing body of outcomes where agreements without a stated end date have been scrutinised and, in some instances, overturned.
Congratulations to the client, and a strong result for M1 Legal.
