It's corporate account so no trade fees. No tragedy if not. Was reading some of the other threads and got lost but don't think there is much I can do but figure would at least ask.

You can exchange, buy eplus which will also be restricted to 60 days, but use all 3 to get your check in date more than 60 days ahead and call II to cancel And get a replacement week which expires a year from the day you cancel.
As long as you are more than 60 days from check in from cancel your week won’t be restricted.
Cost is 2 exchange fees and an eplus fee.

Since they are working with an enrolled week with $0 exchange fee with Marriott to Marriott/Vistana, the only cost should be Eplus. I understand even the exchanges on the cancellation replacement week have $0 exchange fee when Marriott to Marriott/Vistana

Yes- extra great if the exchange fee is zero.
I agree the replacement week exchanges as the original week so keeps the in brand priority and exchange fee disvpjnt.

Sometimes adding Eplus and calling to do a retrade can get your retrade outside the restricted window. I've read reports where others were successful doing this. Though YMMV.

I believe it.
Of course with no exchange fee in this case that wouldn’t make much difference.
What I would be looking for and what would make the cost of eplus worth it would be an unrestricted replacemebt week that I could use to place a request.

I have had reps do all some things that were a bit outside the rules without me even asking.
Very early on in my ownership I called to buy an extension and the rep asked when I could travel and where I wanted to go and booked it without the extension.

I am not sure if this is what happened but I had to cancel a week less that 60 days and could not get eplus with the retrade so I called and the rep book a week with the replacement week a year from now and added eplus.

You can still cancel and get a replacement week (whether eplus is involved or not) at less than 60 days from check in.
But that week should be restricted to then to booking 60 days in advance.
So if the rep booked you a year ahead they were going you a favor.

Ok that’s what I thought.

Is this a restricted deposit or do you have a confirmed exchange where retrades are restricted? If it is a restricted deposit, how did it get to be restricted? Was it a late deposit or did you cancel an exchnage?

We were able to get out of the 60 day jail by booking a week that overlapped the 60 days. (Started inside but finished outside of 60.) Then immediately rebooking to outside the 60 days. This is my best recollection of how it worked.

Can anyone else confirm. Don't want to get stuck trying to rebook every day to keep a trade alive if it stays stuck at 60. Enrolled week so no cost to trade.

I’m not sure I follow what David is saying?
Was this with eplus?
You can book your 3 eplus right in a row and each gets you another 60 day past the current booking but you max out at 6 months past first exchange (60 days x 3).

I believe the only way to get out of flexchange is to follow what I wrote in #2.

If it does work, you can get the week out of the 60 day restricted window and then cancel the exchange. The cancellation replacement wouldn't have the restriction and would be valid for one year from the date you cancel.

No our week is enrolled, so unlimited free retrades. One time we couldn't get it out, we retraded like 15 times. Also no one should voluntarily go inside 60 days thinking this will work. As I stated I don't know if what I described is exactly how we got out, it may have been a fluke. We definitely did not talk to anyone, all done online. I will go look at exchange history and emails to see if I can narrow it down. My point was just a suggestion if someone was already trapped in the 60 day limit.

As long as you trade for something that is as far out as possible and not inside 14 (or maybe 7) days and it doesn't work you can cancel with 24 hours and get back your deposit. No need to keep the trade alive and without having to take a cancellation replacement.

Ok I see so a regular retrade, but no fee since enrolled.
@rthib I agree with dioxide. Book something to the max of your restriction and then try a retrade and see how far you can book.
If you can’t get out regular retrade (free in corporate account) you can always do what I wrote in #2- buy eplus and use those to book far enough in advance and call II to cancel and take the replacement week.

So no luck on regular retrade. Kept same restriction.
