I purchased a timeshare in Mexico on Tuesday March 16th. It’s now Saturday night. Is there anyway I can rescind?
Thanks
Thanks
No, I’m not in Mexico.From what I understand, Sunday is the only day considered a non business day in Mexico. I don't know how they technically count the business days, does the day you sign count as one? Mexico has a five day rescission period. Send out that letter first thing Monday morning anyway, nothing to lose. If you have a post office open tomorrow somewhere that will also post mark it that day, go tomorrow.
Or are you still in Mexico?
If you are still there, you have no choice but to write a rescission letter longhand and try to deliver it to Customer Service and get someone to sign for it. DO NOT take it to Sales. They will NOT help you. Good Luck!
No, I’m not in Mexico.
Thanks, I will try.
Thanks, I willSend your letter via USPS REGISTERED MAIL. Retain the Postmarked mailing receipt.

Saturday is considered a business day. The question is, do they consider the day of signing as one of the five days.1. I bought a timeshare in Mexico Tuesday March 16th, 2021.
2. It’s now Saturday night March 20th.
3. I have 5 days to rescind. Not sure if Saturday is considered a working day.
4. If I send out the rescinding letter on the 5th day, would that count or would Mexico have to to receive it by the 5th day?
It only needs to be sent by the fifth business day. Not received by the fifth business day.
Looks like someone needs to stop going to timeshare sales presentations. No amount of freebies is worth the stress.This is your second purchase/recision this year and it’s only March?

I purchase Bluegreen vacations TS on December 31, 2020 in Sevierville, TN. I mailed a rescinding letter on January 4, 2021, priority mail, certified with return receipt. I bought the TS while in TN. The contract says I have 10 days. The TS I actually bought I live in V.A., which is I think has...tugbbs.com
Thank youIt only needs to be sent by the fifth business day. Not received by the fifth business day.
This is the second time you purchased and are rescinding?? Oh boy, you need to stop going to sales pitches. Good luck with this one. Hope you rescind correctly or you’re SOL with a timeshare in Mexico.I purchased a timeshare in Mexico on Tuesday March 16th. It’s now Saturday night. Is there anyway I can rescind?

It was a very good friend this time.Looks like someone needs to stop going to timeshare sales presentations. No amount of freebies is worth the stress.

Sunday is a non working day, so will Monday be within the 5 days?Monday will be the 6th day. You REALLY need to have a letter POSTMARKED today.

Sunday is the 5th day, and since it's Sunday and not an official 'Business' day, you can send the letter with Monday's timestamped postmark, but Debra, you're cutting this awfully close. Relying on a technicality is not a good plan, but LEGALLY you win. Do is a favor and let us know when you get your payment refunded. We'd like to tell others.Sunday is a non working day, so will Monday be within the 5 days?
Thank you so much for your advise.It really doesn't matter at this point. Reason: If you find you can't get it Postmarked on Sunday, then you have no choice but to have it Postmarked on Monday, and hope that it will be sufficient for a valid cancellation. The worst they can say is no, You won't actually know until you actually attempt to do so.
Me personally? I would make the attempt. You'll likely be saving a lot of $$$$$. And, it may be something which can be purchased on the resale market for just pennies on the dollar (every reason you should attempt to rescind).
Keep in mind that you aren't buying a deeded Mexican Timeshare. What you are buying is a RTU Property (Right to Use Property) for "X" number of years.
Finally, think about spending $15 and becoming a member of TUG. It will be one of your best and cheapest investment.
