Fast Response. Now the Dilemma....
So I sent an email this afternoon and received a response within 90 minutes. They are supposed to call me tomorrow. Now the dilemma, do I keep it, pay the $250 to give it back and be done with it, or try to sell it myself?
I bought this unit on email maybe 10 years ago for about $100 when Mystic Dunes was still with Wyndham. I just stayed down there again last week in a three bedroom lock off in a newly renovated room and it was very nice. Had a great stay with great hospitality and service until.... I inquired about converting my deeded fixed week to DRI points. Big mistake, and yes I new better. They basically offered to let me convert my existing unit to its point value for the low fee of $29K. I declined and that's when the became ugly. Didn't want me to leave and gave me this line, that I had to sign some paperwork. After bringing out the big guns, I finally explained I had no interest and walked out.
So, It really colored my opinion of DRI. I have since researched all the complaints about DRI. Now I'm thinking I want to dump it and maybe double my points with HICV. Never had this type of experience there.
My concern with keeping it is that they will continue to raise my MF and push week owners into the old units, to the benefit of points users. They don't seem to have much loyalty to deeded owners. Anyone have experience with Mystic Dunes and DRI or deeded owners in locations now managed by DRI?
