Interval InternationalReviews of intervalworld.com

As others have found Interval is bordering on being a scam. I am told they have other locations I can trade my top of the line timeshare for, but I am not able to determine if they are open to trade or what conditions and restrictions there are, without paying a $99 fee up front. They also do not have a complaint department and that speaks volumes right there. Where else do you need to pay $99 (US) just to be able to look through their web page...I can only believe it is because their system is a pile of S&&T and they want their money up front before you find that out. Bait and switch..not really but a scam for sure.

I was new to Interval and needed help navigating their website I was on hold over an 1.5 hr and never talked to anyone. When I finally figured it out myself they wanted approximately 1 week at my resort for 1 night at a nice motel. I could have gotten a better deal on a cruise without giving up any points. Take your loss and bail out.

If you are using Interval International, DO NOT be fooled into the security the "E-Plus ReTrade" pretends to offer! We paid the extra $89 on 4 different reservations, only to find out after ( of course when we wanted to change them...) that the ReTrade program is restricted to 60 day window of your original transaction date, and to VERY limited inventory if ANY?! We can see tons of inventory on the exchange tab, but are not permitted to to "Trade" to these as they are not part of the EPlus inventory! We have spent hours on the phone arguing with II because nowhere does it say anything about these restrictions! They have promised to have a manager phone us to resolve and its been 2 weeks and of course nothing! This is after approx. 6 phone calls by us, most of which we are disconnected after being put on hold. They are not a trustworthy travel partner.

The interval site does not work. The server is down. Always. You can try downloading the app, you can try entering through the email and you can try just about every other way possible, it doesn't work. It doesn't even get you to their page. Marriott Vacation Club is very limited where you can travel especially outside the U.S. The sales pitch is deceiving. Save your money and travel without this useless vacation club.

I use this service through a timeshare my wife and I purchased years ago. They told us all the good stuff they need us to know about their service at their presentation . We had our good times and bad experiences with them not finding the vacation destinations that we desire, However we let it slide unfortunately we recently had our worst experience with interval that made us know that finally we are done dealing with them and will not renew membership ever again with this company due to the fact that they were not cooperative when my wife and I made reservations to go to an island resort through them and the the facility that we had researched could accommodate her medical care as promised and we asked Interval International to help us with an exchange for another we found that could accommodate medical issues.They claimed that they could not do it yet still the island had no issue canceling the reservation. So after they told us that we could not get our money back we had no choice but to contact our bank. Now they put a lock on our account that we prepaid for 3 year. Just a reminder you might not experience problems now, but you will with this company they get members prepaid and take their money off the top, the feed you to the wolves. You don’ need them if you a timeshare owner a lot more competent company out here we learn after 20 + years.

Never ever buy a timeshare or use Interval International In my younger foolish years I fell into the Westgate lakes timeshare trap! In over 2 decades of ownership, I have regretted the day I signed up. The lies and deceit used to sell "a dream vacation" is a reoccurring EXPENSIVE nightmare. Interval never has properties available and they kill you with fees. They 'offer' extra gift weeks that are useless unless you want to go to the middle of no where in Finland in February. How do I get rid of this holiday timeshare nightmare, which costs a ton in yearly maintenance and tax fees. BEWARE, if you live outside the USA, DO NOT FALL for this and STAY WELL CLEAR. Customer service staff are unhelpful and just a waste of time. especially the ones who respond to email requests.

I use this service through a timeshare package I bought. The customer service was great, however the selection is extremely scare. Seems almost every resort I looked into trading didn't apply or wasn't "available" no matter the dates I asked for or how in advance I requested it. They are unable to relate any fees these resorts charge and was surprised to find out in one book they charged a time share tax and for electrical. That should have been something related to us before booking. In addition for all inclusive resorts Interval has NOT worked out a deal for their customer for the all-inclusive food portion of your stay and say that's up to you to deal directly with the resorts. When you do, the resort charges an a crazy high price to add the food. I could literaly use Expedia and book the same resort all-inclusive vacation package which includes transporation, food and flight for LESS than what the resort wants to charge to "add" food going through interval.

2nd bedroom closet in Oceanside 99 condaminiums blocked by bed. Management think I am unreasonable to want to hang my clothes up. Management suggested I cross over bed to hang my clothes up. There is an easy solution move the chest of drawers between the beds to the empty wall opposite so the beds are closer together then you could get into the closet. 150 usd fine if a guest moves furniture. What clown set up the beds blocking the closet. Seems Interval like to employ people with no common sense. Accomodation provided by interval deteriorated badly over the years. Lost the nice places all they had now it is old,worn or not functional. I am apparently odd for wanting to hang clothes up. They think I should spend a week living out of a suitcase.Like to see the CEO's wife clamber over a bed to hang clothes up
