Re: Class Action Against Diamond Resorts? (by Angie A.):

My husband and I were pressured into buying the sampler for $3995 we were approved for their credi card . At the time I want working and we told the sale man that we didn’t have to income he lied on the application and claimed he did us a favor and got us 0% apr for 6 months ... the guy even offered to help get me job out in California / Los Angeles were we live . We purchased the sampler in Los Vegas 1 yr ago today . We finally used it this past weekend after trying several times to book a stay . We literally used 12,000 points for a 4 night stay in Palm Springs were I ended up getting bed bug bites . I can’t even book another trip because I have no more points . We were forced to attend the stupid meeting and wanted 6 hrs of our stay saying no over and over. We were told one good story when we were pressured into getting this stupid sampler and when asked. about it they said those deals would become available to us when we became timeshare owners for another $13,000 . I explained that I was not interested at all $4000 dollars later and I pretty much got 1 trip out of it . I asked the value of each point .... $9.15 a point WTF ??? $9.15 x’s 12,000 = bullshit for a stay in Palm Springs . I shared a bed with bed bugs .and didn’t even get anything free out of this only trip .

At the end I was told I can purchase ANOTHER SAMPLER to be able to book the vacation I originally asked about when first getting suckered (I wanted to go to Puerto Rico which isn’t even part of the sampler destinations)

Please tell me that I can get at least 1/2 my money back .

Please email me any leads , contacts or info ANYONE can share .
