Diamond Resorts changeover to point system (by Shuji Y.):

I just talked to a representative from Diamond Resorts and they informed us that starting in 2009, they are switching to points only and will not honor our floating time, which was in the original agreement. They have assigned us a low season week and have told us that we will never be able to reserve anything if we don't pay additional fees and upgrade our status. As far as we know, we purchased a two bedroom lockoff with a floating week, any time that is available during the year. We were not restricted in any way. Has anyone else been advised or been threatened by Diamond Resorts in this manner?
