There is a Westgate Timeshare Hostages Facebook Group for those in your situation. Westgate picks and chooses inventory they take back so many default.

Hi! Sorry to bother you, but did you experience any problems with your credit score after you stopped making payments? Honestly, I won't be using this resort program they sold me as the best thing ever, but it really isn't...

It took a while but I just ignored all the threats and demands. I was determined to not pay them a single penny more. Then they foreclosed and sold my week onto some other poor soul.

Hi! I'd like to know if you managed to resolve anything or if you stopped paying and it significantly affected your credit? I bought it recently and I regret it.

I contacted their Legacy program...They wrote back that the only way they will take it bak is if it is paid off. OR IF I sell it they want first refusal and a host of paperwork with the purcasers information. As you stated earli redier, noone wants a timeshare, and the whole first refusal ordeal is nuts. I also responded that is the loan was paid off I wouldn't be trying to get rid of it! I can't afford the moonthly payments anymore becuse I am on social security and a pension Aside fom affecting my credit, woud it be worth just not paying anymore?
