Re: Diamond Resorts reduces owner benefits again!

Bradford I just read your post from three months ago re the billion dollar class action and the $800,000 AZ AG settlement. Jeff Weir has written about the billion dollar class action previously posted filed by one of the oldest law firms in Nevada, Albright Stoddard Warnick & Albright in federal court. It is for US Collection only and the plaintiffs had to be 60 years old or older at the time of signing. The 55 page complaint is linked in our article http://insidetimeshare.com/1billion-law-suit-diamond-resorts-international/ The billion dollar class action has nothing to do with the $800,000 you mentioned of which $150,000 in fees went to the AZ AG. The AG issued an Assurance of Discontinuance 37 pages as a result of over 400 complaints filed with the AZ AG alleging Diamond violated the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act. As a result of the AOD, Diamond has launched a program called CLARITY offering better disclosure. The AOD states sales representatives cannot deviate from written sales materials but it doesn't seem to be very strictly enforced according to comments our Advocacy group has received.
