Do not purchase a timeshare from Worldmark by Wyndham. They are currently worth NOTHING compared to how much they charge these days. I cannot speak for other timeshare companies, but I can speak about my experience with Worldmark. They made false selling points to convince us into purchasing a timeshare that we were told costs around $20,000. (While writing this, I went back to check our contract to see the amount, and it is actually over $31,000, which was never disclosed.) This presentation took 4.5 hours and when it came time to sign the contract…5 MINUTES! We were happy at the time to get out of there, but that was our undoing because they failed to disclose the maintenance fees. They also told us we could earn money by renting out our timeshare in the years we couldn’t travel and that this was a wise investment. There wasn't any mention of "buyers remorse" cancellation period. There are very few resorts in Canada so if you're Canadian, getting to a resort will cost a fortune. You'd be too stressed out about the cost to enjoy yourself. We couldn’t be more unhappy with this purchase.

We stayed at World Mark in Vancouver from November 5 to November 9th We enjoyed stayed at the hotel and walked closer to restaurants, grocery store, Pubs , Canada Place and Thank you for having us stayed at Worldmark Vancouver downtown. Gary Smyth and Cindy Shidel

No one care about owners. I have lost 10000 points which worth more than $2000 by cancel one booking and imminently booking for other place. I called customer service and be told they have no power to help, Transfer to up level. The up level Owner Services Resolution Team did not call me. They said to call 1300 850 160 or (NZ) 0800 850 160. back to first customer service. So that no one really care. Such a bad Owner Services Resolution Team. Very Very disappointed!!!

Sat through a very pushy presentation in Austin: what a scam. Don’t fall for it!

Terrible..terrible...terrible On checking into Worldmark Victoria for our 53rd wedding anniversary, we booked a penthouse suite with hot tub, just as we have for the last 5 years on our anniversary. We booked 7 months ago, requested a suite on the upper floor like we had in previous years for this special romantic occasion. The room they gave us was on the 1st floor, right next to the pool , where people could walk right around and look into our hot tub and room. NO PRIVACY WHATEVER. WHAT A SLAP IN THE FACE. RUINED THE START OF WHAT WAS TO BE A ROMANTIC GET AWAY.

On a visit to schooners landing September 2023, we experienced a deplorable condition of our unit. This is not a worldmark managed property. On complaining,we were given a cash refund,but after 2 weeks, has not been credited to our account. Be careful booking non W.M.properties,they do not oversee them.

I spun a wheel at a chocolate festival and “won” a “free” 7-day trip to any Wyndham property. Below are the details I have: -I attended a 3 hour timeshare presentation at my local Wyndham property this weekend in Seattle. They absolutely ridicule themselves, and have no boundaries in order to sell the timeshare membership. -I paid $40 to lock me into attending this presentation. I got this back in the form of an AMEX prepaid card (I verified it has the $40 & works) at the presentation location. -I can now book a 7 night vacation, I looked at a handful of properties around the country & also Europe, seems legit. This was the standard stuff that everyone gets. Here comes the hostile salesperson review, Scott. He said some horrifying things and tried to embarrass himself & humiliated everyone on that table by saying absolutely dumb things like: This is a real estate opportunity, you get equity. If you cannot buy this membership, you are not qualified to go on any vacation. You cannot pay for your student loans if you cannot pay for your vacation. He was so ridiculously dumb that he expected me to go on vacations while I had student debt. A classic example of how the American economy works. I am happy I got my free vacation albeit.

I have had WorldMark points for many years and decided to purchase some additional ones. At the presentation, on December 13, 1022, I applied for a Barclays Earner Card associated with Wyndham Rewards because the Worldmark representative encouraged it, telling us the following: I was told there was a promotion to receive a bonus of 30,000 points when $1000 was spent during the first three months and that was enough points for up to four free nights in a Wyndham hotel. That was attractive, not because we travel frequently, but because we are retired on a fixed income and when we do travel, Wyndham has always had a good reputation. The second reason the credit card offer was appealing was an offer to put Worldmark point purchases on the card with six months to pay it off without interest charged. We charged the $1,000 necessary for the 30,000 points and on February 28, 2023 spoke with a Barclays representative at the number on the back of the card: (866.428.2424) about how the points for Wyndham worked and when we would be seeing the 30,000 points. The representative explained how Barclays points were transferred to Wyndham Rewards and that I should see the 30,000 points in 6-8 weeks after the March 2023 statement. We had to get a Wyndham Rewards account set up, which we did. And, because we do not travel frequently, we assumed that all was going to proceed as explained but was taking a bit longer. But by July, when we were not seeing anything besides monthly spending points, I called Wyndham at 866.370.0728 and after speaking with someone then waiting 35 minutes for someone to come back on the line, I was disconnected. This happened five more times with disconnects and a he said/she said scheme where Wyndham would have me call Barclays and Barclays would give me the same Wyndham number I'd just called that told me to call the Barclays number. I spoke to someone at Worldmark a month ago, while in one of their resorts and this guy said he'd he'd give me 30,000 points because he felt badly, but I had to listen to one more of the horrible pitches, first! Ugh. However, this guy did believe the points he offered. My complaint with the recent transaction where the Worldmark rep gave me 15,000 points he said he could give for "problems that arise", and then getting15,000 points for listening again to the same pitch I've heard many times, is that everyone there got the same 15,000 points so these were really a sympathy "gift" because the rep needed to fill up spots in the "pitch" room. These points had nothing to do with the original promise when I bought additional points. In my opinion I still am due those 30,000 points. I then wrote to Board members of both Barclays and Wyndham and have now been pitted against these corporations that say I should have been told I could have $50 OR 30,000 points. But, I was not told this... believe me, for $50 I would not have taken out the card. I find it interesting that Wyndham and Worldmark have become such a poorly run mix of corporations that they cannot honor that someone (the original Worldmark rep) may not have presented the Barclays card offer properly and that others at Wyndham Rewards and Barclays asked if I had the original paperwork for taking out the card... What? They took that paperwork when I signed up for the card. If anyone should be able to produce the paperwork, it should be Worldmark, Wyndham or Barclays. Of course, that would not prove that the original rep didn't present the information like they said he should have. If I could get out of this Worldmark/Wyndham/Barclays system, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Beware of the entire problem before you purchase anything from this group!
