I received confirmation of receipt of my paperwork in February. I was told it could take up to 90 days to process. Haven't heard anything back yet.
I had two contracts with DRI (long story) and I have had to send in paper work for both of them. The first was a Quit Deed, to give back my deeded Mystic Dunes week. That form required two witnesses and notary.
The second was a Mutual Release Agreement to give back my 2000 additional CLUB points. That one did NOT require witnesses, but did require notary.
I have not received any further notice about my old account NOR have I heard of any else getting notice about their account being closed. Just the website saying the account was inactive.
Update:
7/26 - Logged in and saw the wondrous message "We have no active membership or ownership for the credentials you supplied."
I'm free! :whoopie:
Don't worry about still having an account, you will till at least 5-10 days after they cash your check.I sent my letter back July 7, they received it three days later (when I checked my tracking). I logged into DRI today and I still have an account :annoyed: So I sent Ruby an email today to have her confirm she received my paperwork and that everything is okay.
Congrats, NatPatBen!

I think they are still squeezing money out of folks like you. You should just send them a letter telling them that you are resigning your membership in DRI and will not pay them any more money. You are finished with them and that is it.

Now to work my way through the legalese!
That's where we expect to be as well in about ten years. (Though we are in our mid-1960s now). We haven't done as much traveling; we've been using our ownership at our resort, and we always had the longer term dream of multi-generational family vacations. We've now had adult children with us almost every year for the last six or so years, with our granddaughter joining us the last two years as well.We had a great run from our timeshare use for 25 years. We never ever stayed at our resort, even when we bought. It was always going to be used to trade. We traded around the world and had a great run. We used it in Bali, Thailand, Hawaii, Malta, Yucatan Peninsular, Australia, Algonquin Park area, Boston, San Francisco, Sedona, Las Vegas, Quebec. We've gifted weeks as wedding presents, we've used it for family get togethers in.
We are now in our mid 60's and we deemed it time to regulate the disposable income. The perpetuity aspect of the time share I saw as a burden as we aged is now at an end.
So farewell to the Maintenance Fees that have just continued to rise.
We may have had to pay $250 to deed it back but we have used that initial time share investment well and to our advantage over the years. We got our money's worth out of it. I do not have a problem with the $250.
My only regret is that we didn't find TUG sooner.
