i am really new to rci and would appreciate some help
i placed an ongoing search online so here's my questions..
if the match comes thru, will RCI notify me by email?
is there a way i can check for the match on the RCI website? if so how?
if i wanted to add a second resort to the ongoing search can i do that on the phone and will i be charged another exchange fee of $164.00 for adding the second resort?

thanks a bunch
 
RCI will usually call you to let you know that you have a match. But not always, so I check at least every other day. You can also call toll free and check the status.

To check online, go to My Account and then Vacation Plans and you will see if there is something on hold.

There is no additional charge for adding to or updating an ongoing search. I understand you can now do this online, although I have not tried it myself. You can also call to have a guide change your criteria, but log in afterwards to make sure they did it correctly - they often do not.

Good luck
 
Make sure you do not *cancel* your search to start another one. Even if you are removing the original resort from your search, ask them to *change the existing search* not start a new one or you will lose trading power. The earlier you start a search the more trade power you have. :D
