We got the three years worth of "free" points -- not really free because we "lost" about 16 months of maintenance in the process, due to having to cancel a reservation and keep paying until the end -- and have found using them to be a breeze. Main changes: You have to book by phone, not on line, and you may make reservations at Wyndham resorts only. Also, there's no carrying them forward as was possible with "pooling." You either use 'em or you lose 'em. Period. Just be careful whe making reservations that you don't get hit with more of Wyndham's $59 fees. They have their hands in your pockets with every breath.
