It's highly unusual for me to ever get unsolicited phone calls, since my home phone number has been unlisted and unpublished for 25+ years now and that number has been on both state and federal "do not call" lists ever since that legislation was first adopted.

When I returned home today, there was a message from someone (allegedly) named "Jack Bruce" (...who, I thought, was Eric Clapton's bass player in a post-Yardbirds rock trio named Cream all those many years ago --- but that's another story). "Jack Bruce" addressed me by name in his enthusiastic but vague message. Phone number on the caller i.d. said (407) 215-9933 (which I believe is the Orlando, FL area, where I have never owned or visited and don't plan to ever do so). The energetic message addressed "...the (unspecified in the message) vacation property" and "whether I wanted to sell or rent out any weeks or sell any RCI Points at a profit" (...which I don't, as it turns out). Likely an upfront fee parasite of some sort, I know that much even without any further inquiry. The return phone number provided in the message was 866-745-7922.

If I even bother to call this brazen fool back at all, it will certainly only be to play with him a bit -- and (perhaps) discover how or where he managed to unearth my unlisted, unpublished phone number. Whatever it is he has to "offer", I surely don't need or want it, but I will at least conclude our possible conversation with a friendly reminder about the "do not call" provisions of state and federal law.

In the meantime, however, my question here is simply whether the "Jack Bruce" or "Premium Timeshare Depot" name(s), or either of the two phone numbers cited above, happen to ring a bell with anyone else here? :shrug:

Theo - there are at least two threads addressing Premium Timeshares that have had activity within the last month alone, including one for which the most recent post is less than four hours old. The "Search" link is your friend!!!
 
Hi ho, hi ho -- it's off to search I go....

I've said it before, Steve --- you're pretty sharp for a troglodyte.
I shall search without further ado --- which I probably should have done before even posting.... :eek:

This company just called me once. Told them never to call again. Call me twice, and you get turned into the Do Not Call site. I am sick of the calls, and I will do what I can to end them.
