Re: RCI Class Action Lawsuit (by R P.):

Quote:

Were you informed about the clause when timeshare was pitched to you during a presentation about RCI and its benefits?

Yes, RCI relies on the above mentioned clause when it insists it has the lawful right to rent weeks. But, were they carrying out a deception on the consumer when they denied that deposits made by that consumer were being rented?

Therein lies one problem .... many developer salespeople tell prospective buyers that they can go ANYWHERE in the RCI Wishbook in order to make a sale, they don't mention anything about exchange power of a given week and how supply and demand rules in the exchange world ..... RCI has absolutely nothing to do with what salespeople tell possible buyers concerning exchanging ..... that's a whole different ballgame and should be addressed in a diferent court of law, but that has nothing to do with this case.

As far as possible deception by RCI concerning renting of deposited weeks .... it will be interesting to see how this plays out in the end, but I can guarantee you that RCI lawyers will rely on that clause (section 6C) in RCI's Terms and Conditions.

I don't have a dog in this fight as I no longer own any timeshare weeks or belong to RCI or II, however I did get the postcard in the mail concerning the class action lawsuit since I was a a member of RCI for several years previously.

BTW, you are a very articulate writer.
