exchange

Hello, If I use a two bedroom to exchange into a three bedroom (paying the $99 upgrade fee) with Interval International, if I then pay for the flex exchange, will a new exchange be based on the original 2 bedroom or the new three bedroom? And how long do I have to use the three possible...

Hello, Is there a way to see the view category when exchanging into a resort on interval? Thanks so much!

We have loved exchanging into Grand Luxxe over the previous years via SFX, but cannot anymore because of the 1-in-3 rule. Are there any other similar resorts rec'd? Looking for similar level of luxury and resort activities and are open to any areas of Mexico. TIA!

So, I’m an ignorant fool when it came to my vacation club, which is why we chose to get rid of it. We paid $1499 to Vacation Rentals Inc for them to “rent out” our Interval weeks in 2/2022. We’ve only received one offer around mid 2022 with no availability, and now they’re claiming we’re on a...

Hello! This is a very beginner question….if I deposit my week into interval but don’t find anything I would like to exchange it for, can I still use the original week, or do I lose it when I deposit at the beginning of the process? Thanks so much!

Starting this thread modeled after the sticky in use in the Hawaii section. Brian, can you make this a sticky? If you have items that you have left over or are going to have left over that you want to pass along to another TUGGER then post them here. Also, if you are heading to the Island area...

I used to belong to II some years back and am thinking about joining again. I currently have an RCI membership that expires next year. I know that the exchange companies have changed their policies and procedures over the years and I have some questions regarding how II works these days. I've...

I have 155,00 unrestricted points that expire at the end of this year. Called Vistana about options and then said I can deposit them into Interval International and have 2 more years to use them. How does that work exactly? Does the 155k convert directly so I’ll have 155k “Interval Points”...

We are at the Westin Ocean Villa now. Thinking of buying a week, suppose to sign the contract tomorrow....they told us today that the resale owner can NOT exchange in their network. They can only stay at where their deed is. If they want to change inside Westin network, they have to do it...

I am new to this and am trying to set up an II Exchange Request for one specific week (school vacation next year). Am I not able to search for just one specific week? Also just to be clear, the earliest/latest travel dates in II are not the check-in and check out dates...they are the...

We're not new to timesharing but adopted a pandemic pet (2 year old border collie). I thought I'd seen a list of pet-friendly resorts from TUG but now can't find it. Can you help?

I have a couple of Timeshares that are affiliated with both RCI and Interval International (II). I find myself using RCI more often for exchanging. I enjoy traveling to the Caribbean and I feel RCI has a wider selection of non all-inclusive (AI) resorts. On the other hand, my HGV affiliated...

Hello, My grandpa is a timeshare holder and has been unable to contact WorldMark The Club about exchanging points. He's almost 90 years old and doesn't have internet, so I'm trying to help him find some answers or get in touch with someone at WorldMark by letter or phone. I apologize for...

An RCI exchange has come up for the resort we would like to visit. Problem is, the exchange check in date is 1 day after we arrive. Has anyone ever had success in booking an RCI exchange and been able to move the check in day by one day??

Just wanted to share my experience with my recent exchanges. 2020 was my first use year for my Vistana Timeshare that I bought resale on this site after rescinding my developer purchase. We have a 2 bed lock off that can be split into two different weeks. Hawaii 2019 for Colorado 2020 We traded...

As the title says, I have amassed quite a bunch of points through RCI. We just had a baby, and with COVID, we haven't been using them. Whats the best way to get renters? Ideally, I could book anything available though RCI - and for a great deal. Just looking to cover some of my costs.

I am a new owner of a large Wyndham points package (1M annual at BH) I live on the west coast and my Wyndham options are limited. What is the process of exchanging for WorldMark, or do I just need to use an exchange like RCI and finding something? Thought there might be a better way.... Greg...

Disregard. I guess this is the first time I haven't had multiple weeks to exchange. My last deposit expires October 2021.

I have to trade this years week however I want to travel 2021-2022. I see that I can trade into 2 bdrm and then purchase Etrade. Can I setup an OGS as well instead or will this cause me to lose my points? First time trading HRC

I received wonderful news that our Independent TS in the Sierras was able to secure a deal w/ II. Wonderful news because I have not been thrilled w/ RCI. It’s our only resort in 2. The TPUs are never enough since we are tied to school schedule. And I do like II platform better. Can’t wait...

Hello, I own 2 weeks 3 bed apt in Platinum season at Marriott Vacation club, Southern Spain and wish to swap with another member somewhere else in the world. Looking at 2021. Anybody give me some advice on the best way to get this message out there. Looking at essentially a beach type holiday...

I have 2 AC’s in my II account. I have not deposited any weeks yet for exchange. Do you need to deposit a week to use an AC? Or is it like a gift that you have to pay for?

Has anyone had luck in getting an exchange on the Big Island in Jan or Feb, on RCI? I put up a week at my home resort Hotel Xcaret Mexico, for a week at a resort on the Big Island (Ongoing Search). Am I out of my mind or do I have a chance?

My membership just expired, but I'm looking for discount codes I used to own Marriott, but own Divi It can be any level, but the better the discount the better. Thanks!

Still waiting for our Hyatt’s to close(EBay Purchases). Well, of course, Winter Break is week 8 instead of 7, so we weren’t able to exchange our Gold week. Instead I used one of my traders to p/u week 8 at Pinion Pointe 2bdrm via II. Excited because we will get to stay in Sedona, experience...

Currently I'm frustrated with transferring PIC points from Wyndham to RCI and then back to Wyndham. On my Wyndham account it shows that I have two PIC Plus contracts (each 154,000 points). When I call RCI, they don't see any points and they are telling me that I need to call Wyndham. Did this...

We are going to Big Island and need to p/u 1bdrms. Would RCI be our best bet to exchange our SDO or should we use another exchange company?

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone has tried doing an exchange with a GPX banked week? I have never done it. I have a banked week in GPX that I think I won't be able to use, what do others recommend on how to not waste my money for that year?
