Resort Access Network

[Surfm]

As PigsDad points out your link has absolutely nothing to do with RCI. Furthermore, this Daily Management Resorts website does not even call them out as a scammer. It simply says that they are not affiliated with Resort Access Network. This is their quote “we do not know about and cannot attest to nor comment on the legitimacy of the entity/company”. There is no blacklisting here.

That said, it appears that Resort Access Network “business” is an advertising/listing company that posts for sale and rental ads for timeshare owners on their website. That website is poorly designed and difficult to navigate. The prices are WAY over priced and that close to zero, if not zero, are ever sold or rented. They charge a huge fee upfront to do this. Their motive is the upfront fee. Once they have that they could care less if your timeshare is ever sold or rented. In fact, it probably looks better if none ever do because all those listings make them look like a huge business that everyone wants to use. There have been many of these types of companies that have come and gone. My opinion is that the owner of this type of business expect to be in it for only a couple of years while extracting as much cash as they can before closing the doors for good. It doesn’t take long for the complaints to begin hurting the business name and their ability to get cash from potential customers. In fact, what would likely happen is that they just start a new advertising business and start all over again with a new name. Unfortunately, the business as described is all legal because they do provide a “service” for the fee even though it is a rip-off and one would be throwing away money if they ever paid them to list their timeshare.

Where these companies cross the line into scam territory is by cold calling against DNC rules and lying to owners that they have a renter for your unlimited RCI or II Getaway weeks and that your rental income will be thousands of dollars but first, you need to pay the upfront fee. Of course, there is no buyer or renter waiting and the fee goes toward the advertising listing of your timeshare where the ad will sit buried and unseen with all of the other over priced timeshares.

Agreed: "Blacklisting" and "Scamming" are ugly words. RCI or the Daily Management would not use them to avoid a legal confrontation. but this list ..... http://www.dailymanagementresorts.com/news.aspx is nothing short of what I call it.

I am closing this thread. I think that the OP's question was answered.
