Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Chris V.):

vicky229, you're very (too, in my opinion) kind. i'll take what you want, "a week at our units easily in the future", but i seek more than that: a refund of all the overage we've paid in maintenance fees, and any illegal costs that we paid as a result of the scamming and fraudulent sales practices, the amounts determined by the court, of course. i suppose that's a pipe dream (it would probably be an overwhelming task to figure $$$$ amounts for all owners who purchased at different times.) however, with all this brainpower at work, some monetary relief could possibly be considered. at the very least, i would expect that our exorbitant maintenance fees be substantially reduced in the future while maintaining the level of service and amenities that we owners are used to at the manhattan club, and that we were PROMISED. this could be done by limiting and reducing the amount of greedy profit eichner and company garner from our fees. these guys should really use the funds collected by renting OUR TIME on booking.com, hotels.com, etc. to help reduce our maintenance fees, as i was told was being done, by salvatore reale, executive director of operations at the manhattan club (who, fyi, i believe drives a ferrari to work.) vicky, the bottom line is: i'll take what i can get, preferably what's due to me and all other shareowners.

keep in touch.
