Has anyone dealt with Americap International Corp.?

Has anyone dealt with Americap International Corp./ Also know as Americap??? How was their service and did they deliver what was-or requested? Thanks

Are you buying or selling? If they are an upfront fee timeshare resale company and you're selling a timeshare, DO NOT go with them. You shouldn't have to pay an upfront fee (no matter what they call the upfront fee) to list your timeshare with any resale company. They should get their fee after they sell your timeshare, not before.

They just contacted me for my phone number. I had posted a wish and they responded saying they had rentals? Are they a scam?

We don't have any notes of any complaints for this member that has contacted you but if you do have any problems please let us know.

Thanks, Marty

Myself and a friend were contacted by them about rentals. We were just trying to find out about their reputation. They make you pay in advance, which was fishy. Just trying to do some research. Thanks...

Yes, please let us know if you have any problems. We always highly recommend that you use a Vacation Rental Escrow Service to handle the transaction to protect both you and the owner. Please consider this if it's not too late. More information can be found at http://www.redweek.com/help/rental_process/escrow/.

Hi Terry & Adriana, I decided not to book through them since I found another timeshare available. BUT, my friend has booked a week through them. They have taken the money from her credit card, but she has yet to receive a contract. She is worried, but hopeful. Will keep you posted.

Terry & Adriana, They have told me two weeks in a row they would send me a contract but I haven't seen anything yet. The $ did come out of my credit card company as soon as we made the deal. I'm very uncomfortable that I have nothing to show from them around the money. I've left a message for them to call and to fax me a copy of the completed contract. If they do not do this, I'm tempted to contact my credit card company to see if we can cancel the transaction. Have either of you gotten anything concrete other than the receipt? My receipt only shows that I paid, it doesn't say anything at all about the week they have rented me - dates, location, or anything.

Marty - Yes, it is. He seems nice and sincere enough - I told him yesterday I needed to have a contract or I would contact my CC company to cancel the purchase. I'm not sure if he's just a small company and is inefficient or if there are other issues. I'm kicking myself for paying up front.

Hi Lisa,

I called Chris and asked him about the contract for you. He said another had been mailed out and that he would give you another call. He now knows that we are keeping an eye on him so hopefully he'll follow through. If you don't receive the contract by the weekend please let me know.

Thank you, Marty

Lisa,

Oh good!! Yes, please let me know if you need any more help. We definitely want the owners to follow through.

Thanks, Marty

I worked with Chris Wood to plan a vacation to Kauai in March 08.

I didn't think too much about it before since my last Redweek transaction went smoothly.

Should I wait or panic?

I just saw this thread and almost got sick. I worked with Chris Wood to plan a vacation to Kauai in March 08.

I've tried contacting them to get an update on my contract since I paid by CC over the phone over 10 days ago.

Chris has not called me back yet or e-mailed. I didn't think too much about it before since my last Redweek transaction went smoothly.

Should I wait or panic?

Hi Mike,

I talked to Chris earlier today about another member. She's expecting a refund since she canceled. Please give Chris a little more time if you still don't hear from him please let us know.

Thanks, Marty

Marty, what great customer service you provide. Other timeshare related companies should take lessons from you. Kudos to Redweek!

Let's just hope that my phone calls help everyone resolve issues with this company. I think that it just takes them a while to get the paperwork done. At least, I hope that's the case in all the situations.

Marty

I did get a hold of Chris Wood finally. He stated that the contract should be here in the next few days. I'll let everyone know.
