Has anyone tried filing a civil suit against the SALESPEOPLE for fraud? If you went to the presentation as a couple it would be 2 peoples' word against one

Not necessarily. Sometimes the sales team send in two or three people, one after the other. Even if it is "2 peoples' word against one", the contracts clearly state that what is said at the presentation has no bearing but what is in the written contract does. That's why there are written contracts. So if there is ever a dispute between what the sales person said and what is in the contract, the contract is there for the record.

Don't get me wrong. I am not defending the sales people or the timeshare companies. And if someone decides to sue the sales people, I hope that person does come off victorious according to the law. I'm just saying that, with the way the law is, chances are very slim that a plaintiff in such a case will win.
