Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Dks):

A contract is a contract and TMC voided the contract when their sales people and management intentionally and willfully defrauded the owners by promising one bill of goods and delivering another. It's called bait and switch/in other words fraud and they were found guilty of this by the NYAG. The NYAG did nothing for the owners. I can't blame anyone for doing what they feel they need to do which reflects what is in their best interests. They deserve to do so. If that means stop paying fees, then so be it, but it's not fair to say that the owners who have been defrauded are creating a burden for those who chose to stay with the club and pay fees. TMC and their low life management, have been ripping owners off for a long time and continue to do so. They are the ones responsible for the extra burden you are paying in your fees.Covid is a rare and extenuating circumstance. You can't expect people to risk their lives to travel to NYC where there is nothing they can do there any way. Decent people and businesses make allowances. My husband and I had tickets on Canada Air to go to Europe in September and they gave us until December 2021 to use them. I have stopped paying, I accepted a long time ago that bad things happen to good people and I enjoyed the club for many years and I am not going to waste my precious life force on this anymore. I still legally own it, so let's see what happens. BTW, I inherited 2 timeshares, I was told I couldn't deny them by lawyers, 3 of them. I am not getting involved with another lawyer. I myself, would never have invested in a time share.
