Re: Diamond Resorts International (DRI) "THE CLUB" Points Program & Converting your Week to Points

Hello, We made the mistake many years ago to allow them (DRI at Kaanapali Beach Club) to talk us into buying more, now over 30,000 points. But with the Water Intrusion Problem (at a resort we've never even been to) we are now being billed $6114 for this year alone!!! That doesn't count the last 2 years that we already paid over $5000 each year. We want to get out! How did you do that? When we talked to someone at DRI before, they said it's up to them whether they "want" to take the points back! But it's our Credit Score that gets ruined if we just stop paying the exorbitant Maintenance Fees! Thanks for suggestions...if you've been successful. Lisa N [Q=michaeld414] You have 7 days to cancel and would suggest you do cancel... We walked away after paying 55,000 $$ in cash, I thought about cancelling and called them with my reasons and wanted assurances in several area's, they lied, outright lied about the issues I questioned... Then 18 months later they made public that what I had asked about was true... The water intrusion problem and a charge of 60 Million $$ to the membership... Plus the maintenance fees went from 100 $ per vacation day to over 300 $....[/Q]
