Re: the manhattan club

[Q=frank972] As owners, we just called the MC to book our 7 nights for 2007 and were told there are no rooms available for the remainder of the year. We told them we paid for a room and we are entitled to get 7 nights every year but we have no recourse. We think this is illegal. They said we could be put on a waitlist but even if we were to get one night, we would lose the remaining 6. They said If we can't get our nights, we will lose them. we have no recourse as far as getting our nights at any other time either. If anyone is think'g of purchasing, they should reconsider and investigate this and try to contact other owners. If anyone has any info relative to this matter, please answer.[/Q] Hi! I've been having trouble bboking my 7 nights for the past 2 years. They have opened up the timeshare to hotels.com and expedia. The general public can get rooms more than the 9 months in advance owners can. Therefore, the rooms are booked by the time we go to make our reservations! I get very angry every time I call there. Right now I have 2 nights that I am trying to use- we usually use our nights 1 or 2 at a time as we live close enough to come in and see shows several times a year and use our nights then. I've written to the gen manager and explained how unfair their booking policy is and how unhappy people are getting. When we bought we were told it was exclusive for owners- that's not the case now! Just look at how many units are up for sale! Good luck with using your nights! If you belong to RCI- you can bank them and trade for somewhere else.
