Anyone hear of this company? We attended an "informational meeting" tonight at a local restaurant.

Interesting concept based on more fear tactics, with a big fee paid to help timeshare owners walk away with a nominal fee paid.

I didn't show enough interest to get an actual contract offered, but did take a photo of the overview of the pricing.

It was also interesting that they had the TUG logo on one of their slides.IMG_20230525_190805.jpgIMG_20230525_183300~2.jpg

Just another slimy exit company making bold promises. The BBB has an alert for deceptive advertising and statements. The most recent BBB complaint states that the head attorney advised that in order to exit the timeshare they needed to stop paying the monthly payments. This was after they were paid $4,300. I didn’t read all the complaints but another one just a few away from the most recent also stated that the company advised them to go into default.

I found the picture interesting as to how this company could so boldly predict what your MFs will be 10, 20, 30 years down the road.

It also uses that infamous scare tactic telling you that your heirs will be burdened with this when you die.

Yes, they even quoted some Florida state statutes about if you sell a timeshare and your buyer defaults on their MFs, you can still be held liable for up to 10 years!

Slimy was the word I used as we left the restaurant telling my DH I felt like I needed a shower when we got home. LOL

These exit companies LOVE scare tactics. Regarding the MF, they state that the resorts control the increases and that it is 7% - 9%, "minimum".
