Perhaps after purchasing a "package" from Highland Titles or another similar business and have now found out against expectations that you did not get any sort of meaninful title, that the land "ownership" is actually some kind of private contract which does not in fact bestow real ownership, or that any conservation work is possibly dubious at best, largely unnacountable and non transparent, and you now feel you want a refund, what can you do?
If you paid for a plot of land from Highland Titles and are now in any way dissatisfied, the good news is that it should be simplicity itself to have your money refunded as highland Titles offer a 30 day 100% no quibble guarantee.
From http://www.highlandtitles.com/buy-your-plot/refund-policy/ on 02/01/2014.
If Highland Titles offer any resistance at all to immediately refunding your money without argument, report them to the Advertising Standards Authority on the grounds that their refund policy is not actually "100% no quibble". Include any supporting correspondence, emails etc. to demonstrate that they have attempted to dissuade you from obtaining your promised refund.
The ASA complaints procedure can be found here.
You may also want to complaint to Trading Standards, in the United Kingdom this is normally done via the Citizens Advice Bureau. There is an online form for reporting issues which can be found here.
For the Channel Islands including Alderney where Highland Titles are based, Guernsey Trading Standards can be contacted as below.
