R.MARTIN Wish I'd read these and many other comments about Wyndham's lies and scams to us timeshare owners before buying more points on Dec 2016. Was most impressed with their "new" ovation program to sell back my timeshare units. Like most timeshare owners, received weekly emails and phones call from many companies offering to "help" get out of my timeshares. Only to find they usually want me to pay $2,000 + up front or just "give" them my units!!. Very happy when the New Orleans reps told me Wyndham will now "buy" my timeshare units back if we ever want to sell. I even asked the question twice -- "Wyndham will buy my timeshare units when we want to sell??"" Agent said yes. I asked if it was equal to what we have paid and reply was: " Cannot say as will depend on current market value!" Sounded right was my response and we agreed to buy another $21,000 value of units!! OK -- one year later when calling the Wyndham Ovation reps I was told they do NOT buy any timeshares but would refer me to a timeshare Realestate company!! The New Orleans Wyndham rep had totally lied to us and now we own over $35,000 of units that the Realestate company said they could sell for about $1,015 . and we'd be charged about $500 sales fees!!! Like many Wyndham owners we're going broke with the increases in the maintenance fee yearly!! Wish there was a Class Action suit against Wyndham for all the lies their reps make when selling us timeshares! I'd join it today!!
