Can confirm that new rules for the transitions program is 18 months of fees PLUS continuing to pay maintenance fees until your application is approved. They also recommended NOT to use your points while the program is on hold and application not approved.

I am also Canadian, trying to get rid of my DRI Hawaii Collection. I signed up for transitions today but they're saying my exit fee will be around $15k. Did you have any repercussions from defaulting/walking away from your ownership as a Canadian? I worry they would send for collections and/or tank my credit.

They called me multiple times per week for 18 months. I never answered them.
Last end of May (at 17 months), they sent me a registered letter telling me if I don't pay before the end of June (at 18 months), they will foreclose.
I didn't pay. So, they foreclosed my 15,000 points Hawaii Collection.
Since they foreclosed (~6 months ago), I never received a phone call or letter from them nor from a collection agency.
I don't know if my credit score has been affected but currently my credit score is

Guess I'll have to call them tomorrow because I am totally confuse. I applied for transitions and was waiting but called and was told I didn't qualify. Today I received an email saying I had been approved and the process to go thru transistions but thought it still read as though I might not qualify. I would think before they sent out an email calling it an transition approval, that it would be determined already that I qualify.

All this to say sounds like transitions "may" be back on?

I called and was told I have been approved for the transitions program. Waiting to get the paperwork. Hope there aren't any surprises since dues are paid for 2025 and email says cost to transition is $1000.
