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

Diamond Resorts International will not give me the option to deposit my 2013 week with Interval and keep it there two years. These are 2012 points that were banked to 2013. They say I must either make a reservation in my "collection" by December 31, 2013, or make a reservation through their Interval International desk for as late as 2014 by October 31. Or else I lose it, and my jacked up maintenance fee is forfeit. With my other timeshare (also points based) I can get a reservation and deposit that with II and I have two years from the date of the reservation to use it. DRI is much more restrictive and I have fewer options. I also feel like they have hijacked my II account. I can only deal with their desk for DRI exchanges, and the II staff even gets confused and tells me I have to deal with DRI for my other timeshare.
