Rita A. Was Told She Didn’t Have A Choice To Upgrade Her Timeshare

Three years ago Rita’s timeshare company transferred ownership. She noticed an immediate change in the way the company’s staff operated and felt pressured to upgrade numerous times. After finally giving in, she and her partner began to uncover all of the lies they had been burdened with. 

Below is a word for word account of the timeshare ordeal that Rita experienced. We hope her written account will enlighten some of the tactics that the timeshare industry often uses on good, unsuspecting people. Names of people have been changed and/or redacted for privacy reasons.

“In our very first meeting we were told a number of different things that turned out to all be lies. They told us we could get a lot of use out of our timeshare. They said it was a better investment if we bought a timeshare rather than save and pay out right for a vacation. In essence, they told us we would save in the long run and we would have no problems renting or selling it.”

Feeling pressured, Rita reluctantly went through with the purchase. Fast forward a few years and her old timeshare management team was bought out by a more well-known resort company. She would then feel the pressure – with stipulations – to upgrade her timeshare.  

“It was a hard sell and a lot of pressure to upgrade our unit. They told us that we didn’t have a choice. We would have to upgrade our property or wouldn't be able to use it or sell it in the future. Every bit of this turned out to be a lie.”

Rita felt lost with not a single sign of positivity in any direction. She was pushed into a pile of fees that meant absolutely nothing to her.

“We simply couldn’t afford it. Everywhere we looked there were additional fees. The maintenance fees just kept going up and we couldn’t do anything about it. It was more expensive to pay for our timeshare than to save up for a luxurious vacation once a year. We decided we had to find a way out or else we would have to start making other sacrifices.”

Upon looking through a magazine one day, Rita found an advertisement for Wesley Financial Group, LLC (“WFG”). She decided to do some research and was pleased with what she found. 

“We checked out ratings on a few websites and then read through a couple of reviews. We then reached out to WFG and talked to a representative. They convinced us that we were better off with them than a lawyer. This is because a lawyer would charge more and drag out the process in a court system.”

We are elated to announce that after Rita signed on with us we were able to assist her in receiving a $45,000 refund from her timeshare management company.* We were also able to completely terminate her timeshare agreement, liberating her of this financial burden for the rest of her life. 

“The people at WFG that we worked with were always so encouraging, uplifting and positive. They always kept us up to date and informed with where we were in the process. Now that we’re timeshare free, we can’t wait to save up for vacations and get married soon!”
