Here's another problem with provisional weeks. If and when the time comes to actually deposit the week, the initial valuation will be less than the original offer; it might be substantially less. The owner then might not have enough points to complete his/her deposit anyway.

I think that's the case with most exchange companies ... the earlier you deposit the better chance of getting what you want in an exchange even though there may be no point system involved (as in Redweek's point system). There's some sort of secret formula involved with other exchange companies (discussed many times in other timeshare forums).

At least with Redweek, if you deposit your week early you have 3 full years to exchange and you know exactly how mnay points you're getting ... no secret formula and guess work involved.
