Hello Everyone,
I have been lurking on this site for about 2.5 years. I discovered it about 2 months AFTER my soon to be ex husband and I purchased ownership at La Cascada (San Antonio, TX). We have 308k annual points, and we were paying a LOT for it in maintenance and loan fess.....almost $1k/month.
Originally we were splitting the timeshare payments 50/50; however due to his poor financial decisions, I have been trying to take over the entire payment on my own. However, that is no longer feasible.
I completed the Wyndham Financial Hardship package and put in receipts, copies of bank statements, W-2s, legal documents, statements from lawyers.....I submitted this information about 3 weeks ago and hadn't heard back from anyone so I called them. I was informed that my financial hardship claim was denied. I promptly told the (nice) representative that I need them to cancel any automatic withdraws, seeing that I won't have the money to pay them any way.
I asked what the penalty for non-payment would be: he told me that their creditors would call and harrass me until we went into the foreclosure process, which would adversely affect my credit score. I told him, ok, thank you for your honesty.
I have read how people would come on here and ask "what would happen if...." but they would never come back and update people on the status of WHAT happened if they DID; well, consider me your guinea pig! I appreciate the wealth of information I have received from you all, so it's the least I can do. I'll try to provide current, timely, information as soon as I have been provided with updates from them. My hope is that with me having made contact with Wyndham 4 months ago, and last month, they see a record of me making an effort to be upfront about my financial situation. I doubt they care though.....
