Buying, Renting, and Selling Timeshares

Wyndham timeshare any way to stop the contract?

Apr 07, 2019

No, not paid off. In fact, I have only paid the downpayment. I have not started on the monthly installments yet.

Cecilia112, I am reposting as I think I poster my earlier message on the wrong thread.

I said that your post gives me hope. So you basically just stopped payment and walked away? I contacted Wyndham and they referred me to a reseller. So I did. But the reseller was quite honest to say it would be hard to sell. So I am now looking for other options to not lose any more money than we already had. I am thinking of also just stopping the automatic payment. Did you encounter any legal problems? I hope you can reply and thank you in advance.

OMG we faced the same problem my parent went to buy Disney ticket and they get caught cause my mom doesn't know English, a person explained everything to her in Arabic and obviously everything he said was lies I really was pussed cause I was a sleep when they did that from A to Z not a single word he said was the truth ! It piss me off that mom signed the paper we tried to contact them to cancel it they tell us to resell it but it was hard to find a buyer they forced us to buys two rather than one si my dad have stopped paying for one for now a year first they called us few times dad ignored them cause they ignored us well as he said after a year they sent us a letter asking us to pay or we can resolve it by cancelling it legally but my dad friend is American told him to stop paying cause they won't be able to do anything to him ! So my dad still not sure he want to sue them for lying but I know it won't work cause everything was legall there is no hole !! Screw Wyndham timeshare a punch of liars hope no one falls for them and their digusting lies

I also bought a wyndham timeshare on november 2018 (biggest mistake ever) I was promised a lot of things that I never got. I've been searching on the internet ways to cancel the timeshare and I haven't gotten any luck.

People who are going through this same situation say to just stop paying. Luckily, the credit card I registered for the auto payments got expired and I haven't given any new card to register. I don't live in the US so credit points is not something I worry about.

The only things I'm worried about is if I will have any problem in the future everytime I enter the US as a tourist.

If you or anyone can help me with this concerned would be highly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

No, that should not be a problem.

I am in the same boat. They lied to us so bad and I want out. I am worried about my credit as I have finally gotten to a good place with it. Please let me know what you all have done.

Can you answer a few questions such as How much do you owe on the mortgage? Do you still owe maintenance fees? How long ago did you purchase?

Just remember not to contact any of these companies, law firms, or charities that claim they can "cancel" your timeshare.

I'm not Ken but this should help:

Remember to send it via certified mail so you can ask for a receipt to prove you mailed it in time. The only place you have to go is to the post office. Do not go to the resort, the sales center, or the sales people. Do what the instructions tell you to do in the owner's packet you received when you purchased it. Make sure everybody who signed the purchase agreement also signs the rescission letter. You do not have to explain why you are rescinding.

Get on it quickly!

Once they receive the letter, they have up to 45 days to refund you everything you paid thus far. It does not usually take that long, however. Monitor your credit card activity to see when they refunded. Do not call the sales center or resort asking if they received your letter because they might try to talk you out of rescinding.

First of all, there's no need to call a lawyer. That will just be an expensive nothing.

Yes, you can just stop paying. You would lose everything you've paid into this thus far but at least the financial bleeding would stop. You would also face a number of collection calls and letters but those can be ignored. You might face a ding on your credit history and rating but, unless you are planning a big loan in the near future, that ding should not affect you much.

And again, this cannot be overemphasized, do not go contacting any attorney, law firm, charity, or other company that claims it can "cancel" your timeshare and mortgage.

I know of a way to get the timeshare company to want to refund your money if they indeed lied to you. It is a simplistic idea that I have seen work! If you make flyers describing all the ways they wronged you or take excerpts from other peoples experiences online, print them up, make large signs and picket outside of one of their properties, they will lose so much business, in one day of prospects walking past your signs, they will refund. It may take several days of this, for them to scramble and determine how much they are losing, but they will come around.

How much have you paid so far? How much more do you owe? Depending on the amounts, you might just stop all payments and lose what you have sunk into this so far.

Can you explain what the $400 per month was for and how it turns out to be $800?

The one thing to watch out for are these companies, law firms, and charities that claim they can cancel and end everything for you. These are usually scams.

I bought my Wyndham timeshares in April of this year when I went to Vegas. In May I took a day off from work and decided to thoroughly go through my contract because everytime I call them I'm hearing something different. Turns out it was all a lie. I never made a payment to them but according to the contract my downpayment was made through vacations club resort which is a loan from comenity bank. I wasn't even aware I was taking out a loan from Comenity bank...I contacted the bank, vacations club and Wyndham Owners' care and nothing has been done. It does affect my credit score...I hardly get any letters and now zero calls from Wyndham but Comenity bank has been sending alot of payments reminders and now a letter about collections. I need some advice because I have no intention of paying Comenity bank. It is showing on my credit report as a delinquent credit card payment.

Try cancelling the credit card.

You can gift it to family or friends. There is a fee I believe but you will not continue to pay maintenance fees on something you never use.

Hello, I made the mistake of buying a timeshare from Fairfield that became Wyndham, have had for YEARS, never ever use it, because they never have availability and their locations don't work for me. It's been paid off for a super long time, but I'm sick of paying the monthly maint fees etc, for something that is totally useless. I know it has no value, and don't expect $ for it, but-- I have super good credit, and that's important. I live in the US. If I just stop paying, would they seriously come after me? How can I end this besides faking my own death? (jk)

I could close the account but that will stop the fees from climbing sky high
