I got an offer in the mail today offering either 3 years for $99 or 5 years for $219. Since the 3 year deal was better, I took it. I was able to complete the transaction online. I went to the renew membership window, then chose 3 years. I entered the code on the offer: SPC351X . The amount didn't change but when I clicked continue, it gave me the option of clicking a "discount of $128.00". Clicking that, brought the price down to $99.

I don't know if the code will work for anyone else, but I thought I'd put it out there, just in case.
 
Thanks muchly. Didn't work for me, got a message that said it was invalid. But very nice of you to try.
 
mayson must be special. I've never been a member of II, but that looks like a good deal.
 
My ownership should be transferred to me within a week and I was going to call II and ask for any specials they may have for new members. I figure it can't hurt to ask! :)
 
Thanks for posting -- but invalid for me too....

Must have been a leap year magic special that only happens every four years. I tried that code every which way, and it didn't work for me either.

Good luck. I signed up last month and the agent couldn't find me any discounts and none of the codes I've tried (including this one) have worked on my account. I paid (full fare) for a year when I signed up, then had to renew (at full fare again) to set up an ongoing search for next year.

Are you sure this wasn't just an upgrade to Platinum ? Many of their mailings are misleading.

I just got the same offer in the mail today (same code) - and I also noticed the OP owns at Silverleaf's Oak n Spruce and I do also. So I think II offers special discounts based on the resorts you own. It is definitely an extension of the basic II membership and not an upgrade to gold/platinum.
 
I got the same deal for oour Fairmont week last year.
They do seem to be resort specific....
 
This code wouldn't work for my Marriott only II account. Marriott owners never seem to get a discount on II membership, other than the normal reduced rate for extending membership 3 - 5 years.

But, with my worldmark account, I get two years for the price of one all the time.

Ah-ha! I figured it had something to do with one of my resorts, but wasn't sure which one. And yes, it's definitely basic membership. I double-checked because they do send stuff for platinum. Well I'm feeling pretty special, but sorry the code didn't work for others.
 
This reminded me of an email I received 2 yrs ago.

A bit Off-topic, but .....:rofl:

A couple years ago I received a congratulatory email from II -- "Congratulations!!!! ... for 25 years membership with II..."

I responded, " ... Thank you!! Can I get one of your special rates to renew my membership...?

They responded, "NO..."
