yep! if you do not want to renew via payment simply respond to any of the renewal emails (which also remind folks they can extend with reviews vs paying) and we will take care of it!

Ummmmm, I seem to have “misplaced” my renewal email. I found one from 2017 and replied to it. Don’t know if that will do the trick. I hate to lose access as I post frequently on the sightings board.
Any suggestions?

thats ok, you can simply send an email to tug@tug2.net instead!

although if your membership is coming up for expiration, you would have gotten at least 2 and perhaps 3 separate renewal emails to this point! might be going into spam!

Thanks Brian. I just got another reminder so I replied to it! Hopefully this will do it and I will remember next year for sure.

You won't ever lose access to he Sightings forum, the codeword hasn't changed in over a decade. So even if you accidentally let your TUG Membership lapse, it wouldn't impact your TUG Member status on the forums. There are plenty of people on the forums that say "TUG Member" under their username and in their profile that aren't actually current paid (or through reviews) TUG Members.

Only place I send timeshare reviews is TUG -- no TripAdvisor, no RCI, just TUG.

Not only that, TUG is the 1st place I look for reviews of timeshare resorts I'm interested in.

The trouble is, lots of times when I look for TUG timeshare reviews, the newest 1 is out of date -- 4 or 5 years old, or even older than that sometimes.

So it goes.

This was actually discussed a few years ago in this thread. Possible ways to get people to write more reviews.

No hurry as my membership doesn’t expire for another 8 months or so. I did write 3 reviews this summer for a total of 5 for my membership. Does that mean I get to be one of the cool kids and get to be part of the review crew?

The third one was the charm!
