Thanks for the invite . I’m sorry I couldn’t extend my week back home Maryland, to be with you guys “across the river”
Gotta say however, I’m worried for the future of timeshares if my rambling is informing new owners. And be very careful of what I have to say now. It’s only been two years since the beginning of my end, but everything is different now. And I would be remis if I didn’t say this: What ever success I had with Wyndham timeshares was due in no small measure to me ignoring the so called experts of the day.
So don’t pay any attention to the man behind the curtain. We are not in Kansas anymore
The experts were making money before you even bought a timeshare. They also knew that the end could come at any moment. A few times it almost did but I managed to thrive right up until the end. My last Wyndham timeshare purchase was in 2011 direct from Wyndham and was refunded in early 2012 as they would not allow me to PIC my two South African weeks that I purchased with the intent of PICing. I had no need for more points with being able to borrow, credit pool, rent in a pinch, push points forward with different use years and a few other lesser known things.
Twice I almost traded in one of timeshares to get presidential platinum. First time everything was worked out but a few signatures were required from a "co owner". Wyndham mailed out the contract but we decided not to sign. The last time was after 3-4 hours and the sales team decided the could not sell to me. The sales people must have been disappointed when finding that out.
Are people still making money renting Wyndham?
