Re: point rental liquidators (by Gary W.):

Simply WOW! I stumbled on this blog line while I was searching for the subject of this blog...Point Rental Liquidators, and I am simply shocked at the stories related, as they all parallel mine. Last January 2012 I too sat with my wife for a pleasant dinner with Willie Rios surrounded by others being sold on converting our points into cash, and to open that door was to buy into Sunset Harbor Resorts. It was all so professional, and made so much sense. We had other standing points that we didn't use and to be able to alleviate maintenance fees and taxes associated with our other vacation property this sounded perfect. Guess that sounds familiar to all reading this.

It took forever to get our Sunset Harbor deed, instead of 90 days, it was nearly 6 months. SH staff seemed incompetent, but finally received deed, and called SH to acknowledge the deed...and talked with what I called a bit of fresh air, Amanda, who had recently been hired and seemed like a real "mover and shaker" vs the other person who I had chatted with who reportedly was fired.

I then contacted PLR to start the conversion process, and asked some clarification questions as to the procedure to provide them my points to which I was told they were busy (think her name was Sarah) and they would get back with me to clarify the procedure. I also called good ol' Willie Rios numerous times never to speak with him, as all I got was a recording... I asked him to call me back.

I guess I have to say that I put the mess on back burner for a bit as I was a bit frustrated...then I again called PLR to get a recording that as of 8 Nov they had "dissolved" and to contact vactionrental.com. Now that was a shock. Called Willie...only "leave a message and I'll get back with you" message, no Willie--but his number is still active.

Then today I stumble on this blog line...

I contacted BoA Mastercard and got the instructions on how to send a dispute notice to them, which I certainly will, but it sounds as many of you have already done that with no help...I still owe them $8600 of the $9800 I charged. I also owe SH $180 in maintenance fees.

I WILL do anything else necessary to terminate this scam, and will do whatever the group thinks is necessary to get this group (PRL) erased...I simply can't believe that they are still alive and scamming even today.

Any new advice I sure would like to hear it...
