My Time Worldwide?
I need to stop investigating these scammer companies. It is just so irritating to me to keep seeing the same thing… lies, lies and more lies.

Lie #1 for My Time Worldwide, from website:
“Your week has value so don’t trust it to just anyone. With over 4 decades of experience, we did 1.5 million transactions last year and more than 53 million since founding.”

FACT - They apparently did 1.5M transactions last year and 53M since founding yet their website was created December 2022 and My Time Worldwide, LLC was created in Texas on May 8, 2023.

Lie #2, #3, #4, and #5
“The Highest Rated Travel Club in the United States*”
AND
“My Time Worldwide is America’s leading travel club.”
AND
“5 Star Rating”
AND
“184 Worldwide Reviews”

FACT - Bold claims for a 15 month company. Despite doing my best internet searches, I can’t find any ratings or reviews for this company other than the F-rating at the BBB. I have no idea what the asterisk is for on lie #2 because they didn’t include that on the website.

Lie #6
They have three reviews on their website. The pictures appear to be stock internet photos. The three are Sylvia Snow from Seattle, Jeremy Sladen from Bergen Norway and Joanne Harris from Squamish BC. I find it very interesting that a Freelance Essay website that predates My Time Worldwide’s website also has three reviews. One each by Sylvia Snow from Seattle, Jeremy Sladen from Bergen Norway and a Steve (not Joanne) Harris from Squamish BC.

Other observation
“America’s leading travel club’s” business address listed at their website is a 2500 sq ft single family home. The previous address, listed at the BBB, is also a single family home.


Compare “reviews” here. Note the similar website structure too:

Except that you are very good at this, and I take great pleasure in reading your detailed factual work. Sunlight is the great disinfectant.

Anyone know anything about My Time Worldwide?
Yes. This company is scamming people across the country. There are several complaints on this company and we are working on getting them caught.

I don't. Why do you ask? What is this company offering you and for how much? What are you hoping to accomplish by using this company?
I would suggest not getting involved with them. They will take your money and you won't hear back from them. They are scammers and plenty of people have complained to the BBB.

The marketing agents call me from My time worldwide. My wife and I were there they started explaining the program we had no clue what they were talking about. Then they told us that they had two groups in town and we just happen to be in the wrong one. So the one meeting that we are at are for people that were supposed to be contact by RCI in 2017 and explaining a way to get rid of your maintenance fees from the resort you're from. So they gave a value of my time share in Grandview which they explained wasn't very much but they're willing to give me $23,000 for it and return. I would get 10,000 points and it would be no I'm booking a lot of hotels with those points. They were explaining that a lot of resorts only have 13% of inventory for people like myself going to their program I wouldn't have that issue...("hmmm yea sure")
through worldwide and it would be $250,000 points that we could borrow from at $0.015 per point if needed to. Total price $9100.
But in the contract it states in the finance paperwork that if they do not get me out of my timeshare they have good lawyers to get people out of the timeshare if they were unsuccessful we would get our money back!
I looked up there address on one of the spreadsheets and it came up in Texas in big field a group of homes. I asked the guy why is address pulling this he said the owner has multiple real estate properties. He said because that's where he lives. I pulled up the other address I found 620 something in Texas and it was a empty lot.
Didn't pressure me to buy anything but I got a good meal out of it!
Fyi!
