Caroline was first duped into a timeshare when she was offered a free three-night stay. The catch? Her attendance at a timeshare presentation. The following includes excerpts from Caroline’s timeshare experience. We hope her written description will help expose some of the strategies that the timeshare industry often uses on trusting clients. Names of people have been changed and/or redacted for privacy reasons.
“We had planned to be able to take trips each year and fully utilize our timeshare, but that never really came to fruition. We were contacted about a free three-night stay with our timeshare company, so we decided to go check it out. By the time we left, we were new mortgage owners of a timeshare. They make everything sound so wonderful and appealing.”
It didn’t set it in right away for Caroline and her family, but it became very obvious after a while that what they had signed up for was not what they were made to imagine during their timeshare presentation.
“It was ok in the beginning, but each time that we booked a stay – at least once a year or every other year – we had to attend mandatory owner updates where they tried to upsell to you. A couple of years in, we did just that. All of the promises that points don't expire weren’t true. So along with the mortgage, there was a reservation fee, yearly maintenance fee, a membership fee, etc. In the end, we realized that this was not something that we wanted to leave for our children to have to contend with as all of the fees, etc., would continue, just not the mortgage payments.”
Caroline became very frustrated and started by contacting her timeshare company. After they continued to show no sympathy, she thought she was lost forever, until her husband heard an advertisement for Wesley Financial Group, LLC (WFG).
“We listened to and read testimonials from customers about their experience working with WFG. After speaking with them initially, we were convinced that this was the route to take. The high rates of customer satisfaction reassured us that we were making the right decision.”
After Caroline and her husband signed on with WFG, our team was able to terminate their timeshare agreement seven months later.* Other than not having to deal with a timeshare ever again, what really excited Caroline is being able to focus on other expenses like cars and college funds for their kids.
“I loved working with WFG because they made you feel like they were on your side during the whole process and that they understood the urgency of getting this resolved in a timely manner. Thanks to WFG we can now use the money that we saved on our timeshare and put it towards vehicles, college funds, etc.”
