Hi there. I'm new to this forum and I just want to thank everyone for all the information that has helped me since my fiance and I made the mistake of buying a timeshare at Welk Resort San Diego.
So basically, last Sunday 5/25/14 we got suckered into purchasing a timeshare here for around $17k. We sat through a 90 min introduction and were soon carted around on the resort and 4 hours later we were both sitting in a room with a contract, deciding whether or not it was right for us. It must have been the way they described everything to us, or the constant popping of bottles of champagne but eventually we thought ok sure lets go ahead and do this.
As we left the resort I couldn't help but to just stop and look over everything and I just had a gut feeling that we'd been had. While we were driving home exhausted from the day we just had, I told my fiance that I was having second thoughts, and that if what we just did was right for us, then I should be excited but I wasn't at all. She agreed that she felt uneasy about it all too.
Upon arriving at home, I immediately got online and googled Welks Resort contract cancellation and came upon TUG. I also read the contact closely and on the last page noticed the paragraph giving us a way out. Through researching further on some threads here, I took the steps mentioned, sent them a letter certified mail 2 days after our visit. I haven't heard anything from them though and it is now Sunday, which is 7 days since we signed the contract. I'm worried and I guess my question is, should I be? Am I supposed to hear from them once I send the cancellation letter?
