Re: RCI Class Action Lawsuit (by Maureen W.):

The options won in this lawsuit are a joke. The lawyers are the winners as usual; highly paid pranksters or gangsters which ever suits your anger pattern. Your choice is to suck it up, hire a personal lawyer, or use up the timeshares you have listed with RCI and dump them. I am choosing the latter. If all of you out there choose the latter suggestion RCI will be the biggest loosers in the end as they watch there inventory pludge into the debts of non-existence. There are several other timeshare exchange companies available. I havn't tried them yet but plan to as soon as I dump RCI. By the way Interval is just as bad so don't go with them. I know there is one in particular that allows you to look at there availability to exhange without you first giving up your resort to them. As soon as I investigate this option again I will post it. Lets not just get mad lets do something about it. Helping RCI go bankrupt could be really good therapy and revengefully delightful. I only wish the lawyers involved could find their rightful place in hell sooner than they expected. And don't give up so easy and give away your investment which in most cases was an expensive investment. The original idea sold to you was a good one. It was just misused and abused. I have also seen on the internet where timeshare owners have set-up their own free exhange sites. Another problem messing-up the orignal idea are the mismanged resorts themselves which have allowed their resort to loose value through lack of remodeling and improving their properties and letting them run down. Owners need to take an active role in demanding the the members of the association not let this happen. In other words fight back but let us be smart about it by working together. It might take time but RCI and their affiliate Interval will fall apart if we just all pull out.
