We have been timeshare owners at Barclay Towers in Virginia Beach since about 1985. We found to our dismay, being chartered members, that the timeshare office had rented our our timeshare, when we were a no show the first day due to family. When asked why she had rented out the space, she said she was just trying to help us with our maintenance fee. I told her that it was illegal, as we hadve ownership and were not notified or asked. I was also told I could not have an current list of the Board of Directors for the Timeshare Owners Association, that it was privy info. Dah! Do you think as an owner i might be that group, I guess not. Smells bad!!!!!

This is downright unethical as you OWN the week. If you didn't show up all week, then that's your prerogative and the resort had no right to rent it. Many people who own weeks don't use the entire week, they use part of the week with check-in later in the week.

You need to get in touch with the highest tier management of that resort and report this incident. You are, by law, entitled to names/addresses/telephone numbers of the HOA of your resort. The person who rented your week should be fired.

Please keep us informed of this situation.
