We’ve been owners with MVC since 2001. I’m accustomed to the pre-arrival phone call about attending an owners update. They always say there’s “something new” or there have been changes that affect/enhance your ownership. They a.ways say we don’t expect you to buy. No problem, if I don’t want to attend, I say no and that’s usually the end of it. BTW, the offer was $225, 37,500 Bonvoy points or 400 DC points good for 2 years.
At this point t we just don’t want to go and I said no. I probably know more about the program than the majority of their sales staff. We’re chairman’s level and we own enough we have a little bit of trouble using everything we own. She persisted. I said no again. Then she asked, what does your wife th8nk about this? WTH? Really? I nearly hung up, buy to,d her she’s sitting g right next to me and she doesn’t want to go.
I had one other experience like this many years ago with an aggressive Hilton body snatcher. Hopefully this isn’t a trend.
