For one when u realise that u have been cheated or conned and try to back out they will throw the contract at you and threaten to sue u. If and when u keep paying your instalments u will realise that other people had paid much lesser sum of money than what u paid for the same membership with the same company. And then u realise u can't actually start using the membership until u have completely paid up the membership. And after paying up fully and start using u realise that u can't actually get the resort or hotel u booked for. Then u realize that the maintenance fees has gone up and will keep going up at the whims and fancies of the marketing company or club. And then u decide to rid the membership and advertise for sale. And u realise that no one will buy the membership because there is no fixed price and so no market value for it. And u get crooks calling u (u wonder how they got your number, little realizing there is a syndicate out there giving your personal particulars to people in the industry) and advising u that u can trade in your membership for a hefty sum but u have to join this new membership with no maintenance fees and hey presto - there is also a cashback! U will be promised nearly 90 to 100% cashback with some caveat which u don't really understand. So my friends the moral of the story is - Never get involved with timeshare or holiday clubs if u value your peace of mind and want to save your money..... Caveat Emptor!

Date Posted: Sat, Oct 29 2005, 3:57:37 I think you are lucky to have walked away from another scam. Looks like they are using all kinds of tactics to lure people into their scheme, they include, exchanging, swapping, cash top-up, lawyer assisted termination, all of which involves a substantial amount of money. The trick is you lure you into paying out a sum of money by working on your desperation to dispose of your useless timeshare membership. Once they get hold of your hard earn money, they will cook up all kinds of reasons for not being able to sell off your membership. You might want to read up on this posting on “Resale of Timeshare Membership” http://www.voy.com/161450/1191.html . You should really consider forgoing that useless membership. Just let it rot. The more you hold on to it in the hope of recouping loses, the more you will be desperate to recover any cost that might be presented to you by any 3rd party. Thus, you will be exposed to the danger of being manipulated by them with “tempting” schemes again. Thanks for sharing your experience with us with such a detailed report. Reports like yours are really helpful as they expose all the little details that they did which we might have overlooked. Lets us all get informed so that those money sucking leeches will not get a chance to trick more people. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
