My wife and I are currently in San Diego and were told that this was no longer a "sales" location but if we wanted to attend the "workshop" for the new booking system. We paid the $20 reservation fee and we're assured this was NOT a sales presentation and they wanted to educate us on Panorama. Apparently we missed the emails and relaunch events from 2019 in Anaheim and the opportunity to upgrade. They then went into present a lock rate of 3.50 per point but if they could roll the offer back we can do so at 1.99 per point if we bought 40k+ points or 2.69 if we added 10k. The 1 hour education turned into 2 hour sales pitch that was tacky and felt totally scammed! We get to the "catch" and they said we can't use any of these new T & L benefits of Panorama if we don't upgrade our points. They also offered to refi our existing loan and merge with new points at a lower rate.My wife was so upset we just left and told them we were no longer available. Is this legit? Anybody else been through something similar? Or this just another slimy sales tactic? Just curious if we're really missing out on anything.
