Re: Get out of Westgate Resorts (by Denise C.):

We are victims of Westgate Leisure Resorts. We made the purchase when they were Ramada. We were coerced and literally held hostage until we finally agreed. I am embarrassed to say we did not read the disclosure that we could opt out. The 'salesman' did not make us aware of that option nor were we told this unit would be forever in our family. The unit was only used once; our daughter and her husband on their honeymoon in 2007. She called me sobbing because it was a dump! We paid twice for help and of course we were scammed. The last 'company' was MTG Consultants. I spoke to Billy Wood and James Spinney. We have a letter from Westgate's attorneys, Greenspoon and Marder saying the contract is cancelled. But then I received a bill for maintenance fees which I quit paying in 2015. The mortgage is paid in full and we have the deed for our week. The latest company goes by either Fraud Solutions Services or Fraud Services Solutions in Las Vegas. They initially wanted $2500 but today offered me $1150 - paid up front of course. My husband has Alzheimer's and has been unable to work for 5 years. My job was eliminated in 2015 but I was hired on a 1099 in 2016. I work part time and we have his social security. Our fixed income only goes so far and I cannot send another company money only to find they are another scam. I think Westgate has a deed back program. We will never use this vacation spot and cannot continue to pay maintenance fees on something we have not and will not use. We also do not want this to be a burden to our children. Any advise is greatly appreciated.
