Grand Resort Travel Misleading representation of services Bateville Arkansas
Attended presentation in NC. Promise of luxury accomodations at discounted rates. Also, promised to purchase our existing timeshare. Once we came home and were able to look this up, we discovered that Vacation Ownership Closing Company is simply a broker, and will list our timeshare for purchase, they do not purchase it outright. We were lied to. What we thought we were were agreeing to was a deed transfer for zero dollars, plus our cost of closing fees.
My husband is 75 years old and I think they were preying on this age bracket as the others in the room were of similar age. While this is a lifetime membership, we were not aware that that meant we would not ever be allowed to cancel the membership. It was presented to us that the annual fee would remain the same for a lifetime, not that we could not exit out. If we are paid in full, how can they hold us hostage?
The website is substandard and the sales pitch was high pressure. We definately played into their hands. They are clever with a tight no cancellation clause which cancels out any 72 hour cooling off period. We let the pretty pictures get in the way of our common sense. Interested in any class action lawsuits that might be in the works or in the future.
