If ya take the time to get to know the program and how to make it work for you u'll be much better off.++++++ This is odd. I wrote part of what is printed above under the last "=============" and then it turns into someone else's comment, snarking at Jeff. This may be because I suddenly could not scroll down to finish and sign my note. Sorry about that. ...Ahaa! I get a chance to edit this and separate myself from the other posting.That is below. Seems hard to get messages to come up in the intended place sometimes. MD I (MD) DID say: "I have to agree with the suggestion that making your own exchange with RCI on line is often best. (Or at least the most fun.) You can see exactly what is available in exchange for your deposit at any given time and check out alternatives. As always, the rule is "If nobody put what you want in the pot, it ain't there."
Somebody else wrote: After reading all your post telling us we don't understand how Rci works I have to think you work for Rci. You don't need to come on here and lecture us owners on how this company is great and the screw ups are the owners fault for being stupid! We allready have jayjay to handle that job!
I can't talk for others but we are not new to timeshares and do know how the game works. This is reason we left Rci 12 years ago and three of our friends finally quit within last three years.
We have been with II for seven of the last 12 years and they work the same way but don't screw the members like Rci.
Have you tried exchanging online or just over the phone. I've had better luck going online and exchanging myself. Just go tto the exchange tab after you log in. Then click on the week that you have to exchange. You'll get a screen with exchange options that you select (dates, where, what resorts etc...) Just keep modifying your search until something you want hits. Like always, you still have to be flexible. Lenny
