We are yet another dissatisfied MC owner. We trade our week last year b/c we couldn't get any days at all. We would LOVE to become involved with a class action suit, and will write to the Attorney General. marjorie

Hi everyone, I am another dissatisfied owner that can not get her 4 days this year. We own 3/4 split Junior Studio since 2004. Until this year we had no problem reserving our days. This year I called in April, and there were no availability this year. Since the time I on a waiting list, that works very strangely I must say. I am willing to join any protest action that you plan. I believe we should have the right to contact other owners, in other words, get the owners list. Shall we write to the 2 owners board members and request an action from them? They should be able to represent us not just once a year but whenever there is an issue that management can not resolve. Tell me what do. I plan to write a letter to Attorney General. You can reach me at vera_80@hotmail.com just put 'MC Owners Protest Action' in the subject. Buy the way we may need to bradcast the situation on the inernet. Any ideas on other sites where it will get out to other dissatisfied owners? Vera

Vera, is this 2008 weeks you are talking about, as they only take request from 9mths out, they are book thru mid Sept. there are days all the way to Dec. 30 The Manhattan Club has Issues, but I own 8 timeshare and MC is still my favorit, Howard

Hi Howard, I was talking about 2007 week. I am surprised I am getting responses to the post, I placed it in September last year, if I remember it correctly. I check yahoo.com group too periodically but it does not look like we have more than 10-15 people all together. This does not sound like a class action to me. This year annual meeting is in August, I believe? Can anything be done about lowering maintenance fees? Does anyone have a plan? By the way, I do not think this is going to violate MC members privacy if we suggest for MC to send (include into an annual letter) a suggestion to add members forum to http://www.tmcny.com/ site. I believe it is being maintained from our maintenance fees, correct? Then we have the right to use it AND LET EVERYONE KNOW IT EXISTS. Would not that be better than to use yahoo or redweek? This may be a place then that every member knows about, we can gradually build momentum for a change there. Any suggestions?

Vera.
