Don't do it!
New exit companies keep popping up all the time. There is no regulation so anyone, even criminals, can call themselves an exit company and begin soliciting for money. They all start off the same - glitzy website, no complaints on the web, big promises, some companies with glowing reviews the day their website is created (fake reviews), some using shills to promote their company on TUG and elsewhere, and lots of cold calling, most without regard to DNC rules. In most cases you will simply be scammed of your money. In the best cases, you will be free of your timeshare but would have paid them thousands of dollars for them to simply utilize a deed-back program on your behalf that is available to owners at a fraction of the cost. Paying any exit company an upfront fee is a gamble and a bet that you are certain to lose.
Here are just a few examples of the types of companies/people you will be dealing with:
Square One - Lots of complaints, an "F" BBB rating, an owner on the sex offender registry who has now been charged with PPP fraud - (1) Timeshare exit- Square One | Timeshare Users Group Discussion Forums (tugbbs.com)
Timeshare Exit Team - Proudly endorsed by Dave Ramsey, state of Washington filed a lawsuit against them, lots of complaints, "F" BBB rating and now out of business taking with them money from hundreds or thousands of customers. - The end of timshare exit team | Timeshare Users Group Discussion Forums (tugbbs.com)
Timeshare Termination Team - They blasted ads across the country using deceptive tactics ("news story type ads"). They solicited money right up to the day they locked their doors. As with many of these exit companies, their "money back guarantee" was worthless. - Denver local story of a woman who used Timeshare Termination Team to "exit" her timeshare, advertised on that local channel | Timeshare Users Group Discussion Forums (tugbbs.com)
You could throw away thousands of dollars signing up with an exit company or you could seek free advice on TUG on how to give away your timeshare - How can I give away my timeshare on TUG? | Timeshare Users Group Discussion Forums (tugbbs.com)
