Yes, Interval International called us last week. In 10 years or so of owning in Vistana, we have never received a call from II before. They wanted to know if we would be depositing any of our units from this year or next. The caller knew what we owned but did not know if we were elite so he didn't know when we could really deposit. I told him we would probably be banking our leftover options for this year in October. He seemed fine with that but I was curious if anybody else has ever received a call from II before?

Now it has got me thinking that I could deposit one of my 2 bedrooms into the big island of Hawaii for next year (thinking fall) since we have never been there and Vistana doesn't have anything there. Maybe I will check it out! We plan on staying in Oahu for a week or so at Aulani, so going to the big island would be a great change as we usually go to Maui or Kauai.

II calls me multiple times per week to check on my requests. It is annoying, because they typically are calling to ask me to confirm a potential match to a resort I did not specify, but is in the same city as a resort in my OGS. Once in a while, they will also call to solely solicit a deposit that I have previously deposited in years past, but those are rarer.

Now I just ignore the number on my caller ID unless I am really bored ... I answer every once in a while, but it always results in the same response.

II calls are annoying, I agree. They mostly want me to add another year to my account, renew my Platinum status membership, or apply for their credit card. Same with RCI. I don't like the calls.
