For many people , the collapse of Tango Caravans was devastating both financially and emotionally . People such as Sylwia Logan and her family , who paid full price for their van and are now stuck paying back a loan for a caravan they ’ re unlikely to receive . The stories about people left in the lurch when Tango Caravans went bust have been heartbreaking .
But Sylwia – who we spoke to in this special interview that you can watch here – isn ’ t one to take things laying down . She has been justifiably public about the situation , even acting as one of the administrators on the Facebook group Tango Caravan Owners and Victims .
In August , Tango Caravans officially went into liquidation , having taken thousands of dollars from customers in caravan deposits and even full payments . So where did all the money go ?

Sylwia , like all members of Tango Caravan Owners and Victims , would love an answer to this question . Unfortunately , it remains unclear at this point how the money – which appears to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars – was spent .
In August , Pitcher Partners was appointed as the liquidator of Tango Caravans . Everyone who had paid former Tango proprietor , Sarah Horter , a deposit or the full amount for their caravan is currently awaiting a report , which is still a couple months away , from the liquidator detailing what went on behind the scenes of the business .
According to Pitcher Partners , Tango Caravans had over 85 creditors at the time of liquidation , and hopes of refunds appear to be low . One of Sylwia ’ s biggest fears , shared by others who have been financially and emotionally devastated by the Tango situation , is that there will be no accountability .
