Yes, true. This did happen to me. I had several long conversations with Interval customer service about it. I was not allowed to trade up back to my original size unit. Maybe they have changed their policy, which was wrong. But be careful and clarify this before taking the offer. [Q=kgw2] Not true, I traded UP.twice this year I reserved a 1 bedroom suite and 3 weeks later a changed to a 2 bedroom suite in the same thing hresort No extra fee -Plus Retrade Transaction Date Fri, November 07, 2014 Marriott's Ocean Pointe MPB Unit: (2 bedrooms) Check-in / Check-out Sat, June 10, 2015 Sat, June 17, 2015 Originating Exchange Transaction Date Mon, October 13, 2014 Marriott's Ocean Pointe MPB Unit: (1 bedrooms) Check-in / Check-out Thu, June 8, 2015 Thu, June 15, 2015 [Q=robertr558] This is a very deceptive offer. Beware the offer when you make an Interval International exchange to "Change your destination, resort, unit size, or travel dates up to three times for a low, one time fee. Purchase E-Plus within five days of confirmation and increase your flexibility." The cost is $49. Click that Purchase button and no additional terms and conditions are made available. They only want your credit card information. Here is the trouble with this deal: You can only trade down on the unit size. If your original unit was more trading power than the one you exchanged into, you have lost that additional trading power. I traded from a 1 BR to an efficiency and thought this deal would let me get a 1 BR unit if one came available. But I am stuck at the smaller unit's trading power. This is useless. BTW, you have to manually search, there is no way to request. It is also non-refundable. There offer is misleading and they do not fully disclose the terms. Very disappointing, II. I only found this by doing a search using another deposit I had, and then searching for the same using the E-Plus feature. The unit did not appear! People don't even know that they have been downsized.[/Q][/Q]
