interesting, what/where do you own?
 
That is so exciting!!!! I contacted the Transition program this morning about 3 of my contracts, which total 33,000 points and those of us that may apply now may not be as lucky as you are. I was told they are back on Pause and do not know when it will start up again. I was also told that the fee rate for Transitions has changed and calculated my fee rate for the above mentioned points to be $10,600. So - $3200 a contract. I was energized there for a minute - and very happy for you!! Thinking I will still be walking away from my points next year.
 
This was a learning experience. I applied March 2024, I emailed April, June, then September then told it was on hold. I decided to let 2025 come and pay 2025 maintenance. Then I got the Green light.

I shipped the documents with Tracking and already paid the $1000 fee.

Now I just need to wait 4 weeks for it to officially be terminated.

I went to Hawaii 5 times so I don't feel that ripped off.

they want you to pay $10,600 to get out of it? ridiculous!
 
Stop bragging until you receive your final documents. Then you can say I do not own a timeshare with Hilton.
 
Bragging was the wrong word. I’m sorry for using that word. When you received your final paperwork’s then you can said free at last, I’m free of owning my timeshare.
No more yearly MF’s, No more Timeshare Presentation. I’m Free of my timeshare. LOL.
 
I paid the $1000, ill email them next week to check on the status. I had to go to a notary. I also made copies just incase it got lost. I used UPS with tracking and saw that it arrived Monday of this week.
 
This is what it looks like. it took 1 year and 1 week to get it approved

We got our notice about 10 days ago. Application was put in a year ago. This will be the third contract we have put through the process. At this point in our lives, we just want to reduce our points and not leave the system completely. Because we are not ending all of our contracts, we did not need to cancel any existing reservations or pay any additional maintenance fees.
 
Hawaii collection 17000 points

I spent like $85,000 in 3 years, which put me in Debt.


I think I would also want to also get out if I were spending $28,000 per year.

Not sure why it was so expensive each year unless the air fares really pushed things up for you.
