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? VeraWhat happened to Peter? I thought he might be our legal avenue.
I just wrote to Ray Jacobs, the head of Timesharing Today. I had been told by one of the NY Owners Group that he is an attorney and has helped people before. I will let you know if I hear from him. There was also a suggestion that we form a MC Owners Group on Yahoo. I don't know how to do that. It's obvious that to get anything done, we must be persistent, consistent and resolved to see the MC treat owners in a just way. Colleen
Colleen, I am a very angry, long time owner of 2 Manhattan Club gold flex units and have just learned about this forum. In addition to posting a message and joining the Yahoo group (waiting for approval), I am wondering if you ever heard from Ray Jacobs or any of the attorneys who had contributed to this forum. I am prepared to write a letter to the AG, and do whatever else I can to bring attention to this unacceptable situation, including joining a class action lawsuit to force different policies. Thanks, Diane O.
Diane, I guess I gave up in many ways. I never spoke with Ray Jacobs because it seemed that there wasn't enough interest. That was months ago. I don't know why that popped up again. I am just now renting my first week in June for $1,000. after starting at $2,000. Had no inquiries until it went down to $1,000. Guess it's better than nothing since we don't want to go to NY this year. Keep in touch everyone. Colleen
Colleen, Can you speak with Ray Jacobs now? It looks like there is plenty of interest in changing things. I've just learned of another owner who thinks of selling his unit. He can join us too. Vera.
