RE: question about RCI We joined tmcny in 2005 and part of the deal was a 1 year subscription to RCI. We did not use the RCI as we live in NJ and were just interested in tmcny at the time, so we did not renew the RCI. Then in 2013 when it was getting very difficult to get reservations we were sold membership in RCI and told it would be easier as we also had access to the Hilton. We also were told at that time that we had to make reservations through RCI and could no longer make them via reservations at tmcny. This is pretty annoying as now we must make the reservations through RCI 11 months before we wish to use the unit, instead of the 9 months prior through tmcny. We tend to take the time in days rather than weeks, since we live in NJ. RCI has its benefits but we would not do it again as it has made getting what we want more difficult when plain old tmcny members are finding it easier to get reservations now that so many have stopped paying their maintenance fees. We feel like 2nd class citizens now in that we must go through RCI, like other RCI members who are not tmcny members. Forget the possibility of The Hilton. It is almost never available on RCI, so that was another sales pitch lie. Dee
