Just some background, we bought our two weeks resale in 2007 and 2008. We originally purchased from Marriott, then I researched here and rescinded. Since then, we have been contacted for timeshare tours on a regular basis. I go to get the Marriott Rewards points. We have gone on countless tours, the most recent being 2 years ago.
While at Marriott Grande Chateau a week ago, we were contacted for a tour and offered 30K points. I agreed. We got there, got into the sales guy's office, and he pulled up our history, showing all the tours and the original cancellation. He asked what happened. I explained that we bought resale. He said, oh, why didn't you tell them that when they offered you the tour. You aren't even eligible to take the tour. He said this in a rude, accusing manner. He said, Let me speak to my manager. He left and then came back and said we could continue but we really shouldn't be there. I was angry so we decided to leave. He said he would take us back to the marketing people. I couldn't hold my tongue so I told him for future knowledge, he should not accuse customers of things. No one ever asked if I bought resale when they made the appointment and it is not my job to tell them. It is his job to find out. I've never hidden it and all the other tours I've been on they knew how we bought.
He then decides not to take us to the marketing people and just puts us on an elevator back to our room. What a weird dude!
My question, is this true. I don't think it is. I just don't think he wanted his time wasted on someone that knows about resale.
