Hi I’m not from the us and I was in Orlando for vacation last week, got roped into the Westgate thing it was super stressful for me honestly and finally signed up for the test package, it looked like a good deal at the time but after reading everything I decided I don’t want to buy the time share even after trying it (they said I have up to 3 years to try it). Now I also want to cancel my test package but can’t find anywhere how to go about it. Any help is appreciated thank you (this was on February 18th btw)

Westgate has possibly the worst reputation of all the timeshare systems. and that is saying something.
Get your letter into the mail. NOW. Send it certified so you have proof when they receive it. They have to accept it, but they don't have to tell you they did. The letter is a simple " we are rescinding contract #" and sent to their address in Florida. Look through your stuff; it's in there someplace, but Westgate (commonly referred to hear as Wastegate) hides in; look for a hidden pocket.
Once that is done, if you are still interested in a timeshare; do your homework first to determine which system is the best fit for you and then buy resale. Orlando is full of timeshares; pretty much every system has something there. Think about the other spots you want to visit and buy a system that has the places without a lot of timeshares. or start by renting. But stay away from those promotional stays where you just have to sit through a 'short' (never happens) presentation where they strand you someplace in the boonies when you don't buy from them.
