No exit company is legit. They are all scams. They cannot "terminate a timeshare contract."

Shall I pile on @jehmann ?

For ALL these companies, anything they say they can do, you can do it yourself.

But if you still feel like wasting money, send it my way and I will "help" you terminate your contract.

As others have stated, there are no legit exit companies. A vast majority are outright scams. A small number have been in business for a long time with many glowing reviews, like this company has. That doesn’t make them legit. These long time exit companies prey on naive timeshare owners. They feast on the easy terminations utilizing available deed back programs that an owner could request themselves (but are unaware that the program exists). These exit companies purposely keep the timeshare owners in the dark about their real options because they want the huge upfront fee as profit. The naive timeshare owner, out thousands of dollars but free of their timeshare, give a 5* review thinking this company did magical things to get them out (which they did nothing of the sort).

How about the tough terminations? These will drag on for months or years. The exit company will kick that can down the road for as long as they can, or at least until the timeshare is finally foreclosed. The exit company will consider that foreclosure as a successful termination as if they did some special work to make it happen. No matter the BBB rating or glowing customer reviews, it is my opinion that collecting thousands of dollars for a foreclosure is an outright scam. No one should have to pay thousands of dollars for a foreclosure. That result doesn’t require a dime to make happen.

Does the Client Protection Group steer customers towards foreclosures? Absolutely. Review some of the BBB complaints and you will read that timeshare owners were told to stop paying their fees. You will also see people complaining about credit hits from being past due. You also know an exit company has foreclosure as one of their tools when they offer credit repair services, which this company offers.

They also claim to protect your credit history from damage "By working with the 3 major agencies." More BS.

Yup, the credit repair/protection is just a side dish of more scam. I’m sure you know this but for the people who don’t here it goes. Just like exit companies have no special powers to cancel a legit timeshare contract, these credit repair companies have no special powers to remove accurate negative history from the bureaus. Legit credit repair companies will help correct inaccuracies on someone’s bureau. What the exit companies that promise credit protection will do is to bombard credit bureaus with multiple disputes hoping that a lender will fail to respond confirming the accurate history of delinquency and/or foreclosure. That accurately reported pay history is usually the result of the exit company’s advice to the timeshare owner to stop paying the fees and to ignore any communication.

@jehmann As you are new to TUG, if you share what resort you own and whether or not you have a mortgage you will get some honest advice as to what your options may be. The exit companies’ advice will revolve around scare tactics, lies and deception (keeping any relatively easy and low cost options a secret from you to ensure a big payday for themselves).

And all the while pretending that they are working so hard behind the scenes trying to get you out of your TS without actually leading you into foreclosure.

Paid that money, didn't post anything for over 4 months and now this. Cheap advertising and search engine optimization.

The problem is that the timeshare companies spent a large amount of legal fees on making the contracts essentially bullet proof and there is generally no legal way out except to default and stop paying.
