      Product Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      My wife and I embarked on our timeshare journey in 2003 when we purchased our first property at the ******************** in ***************************. Over the years, we attended numerous presentations. However, our most recent experience, in August 2023 at Marriott Shadow Ridge with representative *******************, has left us deeply disillusioned with the timeshare industry. During the presentation, ****, who introduced himself as a veteran and real estate agent, who presented an enticing proposition: merging our existing Westin timeshare with Marriott to alleviate maintenance fees and provide enhanced vacation flexibility. In a 3-hour discussion, **** assured us that with the merger, our Westin maintenance fees would cease, replaced by lower Marriott fees. Encouraged by this promising outlook, we proceeded to sign under ****'s guidance. Yet, our optimism quickly turned to frustration as **** repeatedly postponed meetings to discuss the merger's intricacies. Despite our attempts to clarify our obligations, ****'s vague responses and rescheduled appointments only deepened our confusion. Our concerns intensified upon receiving Westin paperwork in December, addressed solely to my wife, contradicting ****'s earlier assurances of a seamless transition. In a desperate attempt to resolve the matter, I reached out to Marriott corporate. However, my efforts were met with unhelpful responses and unresolved promises. Feeling abandoned by the company, I decided to visit **** Desert ************* in January 2024, hoping to find some clarity. Unfortunately, my visit only resulted in further frustration, as I encountered bureaucratic hurdles and a disheartening sales pitch unrelated to our concerns. ****'s misleading assurances and Marriott's lack of accountability have not only tarnished our experience but also eroded our trust in the company. We can no longer remain affiliated with Marriott and demand nothing short of a full cancellation of our contract and a prompt refund.
