I gave 9000 Worldmark credits to RCI for a one bedroom Wyndham Grand Resort in Las Vegas for a family birthday gathering.

Yesterday I get a $63 bill from Worldmark for Housekeeping. Is this normal when it is an RCI 'exchange' into a Wyndham (not Worldmark) resort? :doh:

Can someone explain the connection please :confused: Thank you in advance.

I believe that when you deposit to RCI or II...they include a hskg token to cover hskg in which case you would not be charged. If you didnt have a token available...that may explain why you are now seeing the charge. :shrug:

It happened to me before. I exchanged my WM with Marriott 2BR through II and WM sent me a bill for $70. They said I used my tokens already (for the previous reservations), so I need to pay for this new exchange. I made 4 exchanges and paid one token fee.

Anytime you do an exchange, WM has to give RCI/II/etc. a WM unit for one week in exchange for the exchange week that you get. That WM unit needs to be cleaned. So you have to use a HK token/charge for each exchange.
