Paid maintenance fees, but lost week (by Tracey S.):

Generally if you own a fixed week and don't deposit it either in an internal banking system (if available) or an external exchange company like RCI or II, and you don't make arrangements to use it (or rent it), it sits empty and your use for the year is gone. Many systems make you pre-pay your mf in order to bank the week. If you know you aren't going to use it next year, you may want to go ahead and pay the 2017 MF and bank it now.

Unfortunately, with the exception of a few Mexican Timeshares, you have to pay MF whether you use the week or not. Since that is the case you need to make sure you use the week either by staying in your home resort for the week or making alternative arrangements.
