Bluegreen sales weasels are telling people at update/sales meetings that they are going to lose RCi access thru BG (paid in our club dues) unless they join Max.
Is there an RCI membership included with Max membership?

Not if you buy on the Diamond side. They use DEX instead of RCI. If you buy on the Hilton side, you still get access to RCI.

Never heard of DEX?

Googled and found it, also found this thread

So, BG owners are being pushed To buy 4,000 BG points ($10-12,000) to be able to “join” HVC Max.
That‘s another component - HGVC, Diamond/DRI and Bluegreen.

It seems they WILL lose RCI access if they join Max as Max members don’t use RCI - not the other way around.
Am I reading this correctly?

HGVC Max member still get RCI with their membership. Don't know if BG will lose it, but I would cross that bridge if you ever get to it.

Thanks,
HGVC Max includes RCI,
But does DRI/Diamond AKA HVC Max include it?

It seems if you stay with straight BG, RCI will continue but if you join HVC Max, you lose it to DEX.

And you certainly can’t trust the sales weasels to tell you the truth.
