Good morning All,

I have to pay for my RCI membership because my ownership predates the 2008 change (or whenever it was). I know that sometimes there are codes or promotions where you pay for X years and you get Y years of ownership.

Does anyone know if there is such a promotion now? Do TUGgers think that RCI is "worth it"? I used to use for bulk banks but I don't really do that anymore. I can see doing TradeWinds exchanges, which is probably the only reason to renew at this point, but even that is a justification.

Please advise and thank you!

RCI is ok but II is better imo. Regarding Tradewinds, you can access those weeks via the HGVC portal. I usually see a lot of weeks using points, but I see a few weeks available for rental ~ $300-$400 per week. I dropped my RCI membership and just use the HGVC portal to see inventory.
 
I’m contemplating my RCI membership it’s expiring in January 2023. I might just use my weeks, as I like where they are and enjoy going.
 
Last year worldmark was offering 2 years for the price of 1 under the old website. Not sure on the new one, but might be worth a call and ask RCI if it is still available. Could have been code: WMRCIOFFER. I got the offer, and I usually pull less inventory than my non WM RCI accounts. I find it good for the very expensive studios and hotel units, like in NYC, but again, does not pull all the available inventory.
 
I just joined II with my WorldMark account. I am hoping for some good exchanges.

Thanks. The offer on the new WM website with that discount code is $99 for one year/$179 for two years. Is that really a discount? That seems to be the going rate on RCI.com from what I can tell.

No, that is not the discount. it was 2 years for $99. That is why I suggested you call RCI and see if they can give you that offers.
