RCI weeks question: where to find TPU requirement for the week

[iftravel]

When I search for a week I like I also want to know how much TPU it requires before I deposit but why it keeps asking me to deposit without telling me how much TPU it needs. Insane design. Am I missing something?

I think with RCI you have to have at least 1 tpu already deposited and available or you can't search. It has always been a "deposit first" type system but with tpu's you don't necessarily need to have enough already deposited but you do have to have something deposited.

OK so unless I deposit something, I am not going to know how much TPU I need. A bit too pushy.

A follow-up question. Now that you have 10 TPU, but the week requires 20 TPU, do you get the same message with NO CLUE of how much additional TPU it needs?

No I believe it will show you how many it costs and tell you that you don't have enough and see if you want to deposit and combine with future deposits.

@iftravel Do you want me to look something up for you?

Yeah learning the system. Appreciate your help. For example, I’m searching for the availability of Kings’ Land and it has one week available in October, but it simply shows me this. I have 0 TPU in my account but don’t understand why don’t tell me how much I need for this.

42 plus exchange fee for Oct 26-Nov 2 2BR Kings Land.

It won't tell you because they want to force you to deposit to get those numbers.

Thanks. Perhpas I shouldn't be unhappy with RCI, 'cause II won't even let you know it's available if you don't have enough trading power.
