Wyndham time shares pitch more, sell more

By Sara K. Clarke and Jason Garcia, Orlando Sentinel

The world's largest time-share developer reported an increase in sales for the second quarter, driven by a higher volume of guests going on tours to hear sales pitches.
Wyndham Worldwide Corp., the parent company of Orlando-based Wyndham Vacation Ownership, said its time-share operation had revenue of $630 million for the three months that ended June 30. That figure was up 11 percent compared with the same period a year earlier.
Partly driving the increase was Wyndham's acquisition of Shell Vacations Club, an early pioneer in the time-share business.
Wyndham said its time-share sales were up 5 percent from a year ago, driven by a 10.8 percent increase in "tour flow," or the number of people sitting through its sales pitches. But the company's marketing efforts were less effective, as the "volume per guest" — or the amount of revenue generated per tour —- decreased by 4.4 percent.

HOW DOES IT WORK

HOW IT WORKS: No Timeshare provides you with hundreds of pages of research on your resort. This will include consumer complaints, past lawsuits against the resort, State Attorney Generals complaints and news articles. All showing where hundreds of other people have been scammed. I then provide a demand letter stating you are disputing the purchase and giving them 30 days to respond or this information will go public. It works, contact me today.

This program works if you were misled and lied to during your presentation. Resorts can no longer place the blame on the salesperson, they allow it and the salesman is a representative of the resort. Hold them accountable.

San Luis files suit against Wyndham Worldwide

And we wonder how these resale company's get a timeshare owners name.


GALVESTON, Texas — The San Luis
Resort, Spa & Conference Center is
suing two former managers and
Wyndham Worldwide Corp., accusing
them of conspiring to poach
employees and of stealing proprietary guest lists.
Island-born billionaire Tilman Fertitta owns the The San Luis, 5222
Seawall Blvd.
The lawsuit never specifies which Wyndham-managed property is at issue
in the lawsuit. Court papers describe a beach-front hotel and spa on the
seawall managed by Wyndham. Wyndham Corp. manages Hotel Galvez &
Spa, 2024 Seawall Blvd.

TRAVEL CLUB RECISSIONS

Cancelling your travel club membership varies from state to state. Missouri has a three day rescission period, but there is a clause "as long as your membership benefits have not been accessed." Which is why the travel club will try and sell you a motel stay or show tickets. This is a trick used by them to keep you in the deal. Be very careful, they may even give you a restaurant gift card or "free tickets".

When you do cancel, mail everything back to the club registered mail along with a letter  stating you are cancelling. You do not have to give a reason.
