Lazeo Belgium bankruptcy — prepaid laser packages lost? Anyone else affected?
Hi everyone,
I discovered through Reddit Brussels that the laser clinic chain Lazeo (which had more than 14 locations across Belgium) has apparently gone bankrupt and suddenly closed all of its clinics.
A lot of people, including myself, are now left in a difficult situation because we prepaid expensive laser hair removal packages worth hundreds or even thousands of euros.
In my case, I only completed 4 out of 10 sessions and I still have around €1200 worth of treatments unused (each session costs around €200).
The company posted on Instagram saying that a lawyer/liquidator has been appointed and that clients should contact this person regarding the bankruptcy procedure.
Does anyone know how this works in Belgium in practice?
- Is there any realistic chance of recovering part of the money?
- Should we all individually contact the lawyer/liquidator?
- Would it make sense to organize some sort of collective action / class action with other affected clients?
I imagine there are many people in the same situation, so any legal advice or shared experiences would really help.
