Transfer times getting shorter

I guess there's always time for Wyndham to claw this back, but my contract hit my account today after a Paymentus email heads-up yesterday and...the contract appeared in my account with a January use year (that is, no sign in my account of it having been realigned) and awarded current-year points!! To say I was surprised would be an understatement!

Now I have to figure out exactly what I want to do with them, but considering what I was expecting they're basically free points. I think Hawaii is in our future sometime in the next 1-2 years and I know there are some decent options in RCI.

How long did the transfer take? Once Wyndham, received all the documents to start the process on their end.

Sent our recorded deed and $399ctransfer fee on 3/13, Wyndham shows it was recieved and processing started on 3/20. At 10-11 weeks now. Called Wyndham yesterday and they said it's taking 10-16 weeks to complete and I should recieve docuforms to sign soon. I was not aware that if it was a deeded ownership and a copy of recorded deed was sent to them there would be more documents for buyer and seller to sign before Wyndham can make the ownership change in their system.

That makes sense for me as well. My purchase was at PCB, which is also a recorded deed.

I’m at 10 weeks. So if I’m lucky maybe sometime end of June early July. I’m just hoping I can still try to use the 2025 points. The other thing I’m concerned about is I’ve worked with the existing owner and made some reservations. I wanna make sure that those reservations get transferred over to me.

The closing company sent everything to Wyndham around February 14, so assuming it took a week or so to reach them, looks like around 14 weeks give or take.

Put them as a guest reservation under your wife's name or who ever is traveling with you.

I would be concerned about the reservations the current owner booked for you. I did not think existing reservations would transfer. Anyone had that happen?

I would, too. This does not seem consistent with normal Wyndham behavior of gobbling
outstanding reservations during transfer, reported on TUG many times.

Maybe -- just maybe -- if the reservations were made by depositing to RCI?? Cuz then
the points would be gone from the Wyndham account and stuck (or safe havened?) on
the RCI side?

But then you face the no-guest-checkins-on-RCI restriction, right? Maybe, just maybe,
if the seller was available in person for the check-in location and date.

I'm sure we'd be all happy to learn my suspicions are wrong. Can anyone offer a success story?
And, of course, @Jace - please be sure to re-post here to let us all know how it works out for you. Tnx!!
