Worldmark downward spiral after Wyndham takeover We have been Worldmark by Wyndham timeshare owners for many years and since Worldmark was bought out by Wyndham, Worldmark has steadily been on a downward spiral from one of the best timeshares to poor. Two events will show the extent.. 1. Wyndham has effectively cut off all private resale of Worldmark by delaying their signing/approval of the sellers'/Wyndham's contract to make the sale unappealing to the prospective buyer. It doesn't take months to accomplish this - this is a ploy by Wyndham to maximize profits by destroying the resale market. Check out how many of the reputable resellers are still operating. Here's a posting from one of the longstanding reputable resale firms: MPORTANT NOTE: The entire title transfer process takes approximately 6 to 8 months to finalize depending on WorldMark's Transfer Department workload. Turnaround times are subject to change due to WorldMark’s current workload, and always without notice. We process everything the same day, however everything we do is dependent on WorldMark. In the meantime, we must be patient and abide by WorldMark’s policies and procedures in order to get this done. How WorldMark operates is completely out of our control. You're welcome to call WorldMark's Transfer Department at 800-537-6497 for additional information. 2. A 'new and improved' website introduced on April 15 2022 has made it almost impossible to have any faith in the reservation system. It takes much longer than the reliable older Worldmark software and it is cumbersome to navigate efficiently especially when trying to reserve a popular resort during high season. At first it was difficult to know whether it was imcompetence (of their computer programmers) or fraud - It has been 3.5 months and no meaningful changes so coming to the right conclusion shouldn't be too difficult. It would take a normal reputable company days/weeks to fix the obvious glitches that have been reported and complained about but they obviously have no intent to improve. By doing this Wyndham are able to distribute more of the vacancies to websites like vrbo, rci etc where they make more sales revenue and keep the existing membership paying the costs of operation (from maintenance fees). ....disgusting to this early Worldmark owner.

This is what I think of WorldMark by Wyndham!!!! The new website that was rolled out several months ago is way beyond awful and totally unusable in comparison to the awesome site we had before. And then to top everything off it has not worked for me for over 6 days now. Every thing I have had to do with my account had to be handled with calls to Owner Resolutions. That included making a reservation, adding a guest name and setting up a credit transfer (by the way the online credit transfer does not work). When will you the board for Worldmark realize, we owners are the most important part of Worldmark The Club????

I wish there was a NO STAR rating.. If you ever come in contact with any of their agents, please do not give them a chance to talk to you at all. They'll tell you its not a timeshare but it's a lie, it's even worse. They signed me up, and told me I couldn't cancel when I had a rethink. The agents claim they only know how to sign you up, but can't advise you on how to cancel. Thankfully I was eventually able to get myself off the hook. I have to wait for my credit to heal now, after they messed it up trying to open multiple credit accounts with my information. My advise to everyone, RUN from this SCAM

It's been over a year since my brother died, his contract was paid and I asked to relinquish shares (as instructed) and requested a stop to billing. I have spent countless hours dealing with World Mark and 2 collection agents and still getting bills despite assurances billing would stop.

This is the most dishonest company we have ever come across. We have been members over 15+ years. It started with a "free" weekend with our friends who were members, a 1.5hr meeting turned into 4+hrs. High pressure, endless "deals" etc. Anything to get you to sign. Biggest regret of our lives! The lies have never stopped. They will tell you anything to get you to agree and it all turns out to be lies. Anytime you stay at a property you are harassed endlessly to attend an "update" meeting which is nothing more than a sales pitch to sell you more points - more lies. Never availability when we want to travel; now charge a fee for guests, traveling with you or not; dues climb higher and higher with each passing year. They call and harass you on the phone as late as 7-9p at night to tell you they have something important from the corporate office and must speak with you- again to sell more points. I believe there is no tactic the wouldn't do or say to get a sell, 99% are lies if not 100%. We gave our friends points, they stayed several years ago and had bedbugs and WM lied about the situation. Zero ethics and Zero integrity! We have health issues, can no longer travel with the world circumstances. They aren't replying to our emails to cancel our contract and we area FEDUP! I would give them "ZERO" stars if it was an option! STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!

This company is seriously so terrible. NEVER EVER GET YOURSELF INTO IT. Their website is the worst website I've ever used. It is impossible to book a week of vacation. The last several nights my family and I have been taking turns getting up at 1am when their page refreshes to try and book a simple vacation to Hawaii, but right away everything is full and if we happen to get a spot, it will kick us out, even though we have a timer saying we have 15min to finish the payment, and by the time we try again, it's full and we have to try this process again the next night. We have also had awful experiences with some of the workers being over aggressive in trying to make us sign/join another deal with worldmark. I cannot wait until we never have to deal with this company ever again. NOT USER FRIENDLY. They need to get their act together and make it possible for a family to plan a trip a year in advance without all these issues. Not to mention their customer service is a joke.

I am so sad I am a Worldmark owner, especially for the last three years. I hope I am able to post pictures because I will prove my last three waiting times by trying to call: 1hr11mins 3 secs; 1hr 02 mins 26 secs; and today 1 hour plus!

I hope that anyone who reads this is made aware of the questionable business practices WorldMark by Wyndham is engaging in. Unfortunately for me I have been associated as a timeshare owner with WorldMark since 2001 and all I can say is that they are master manipulators, highly skilled in the art of deceiving people. Even as an owner I was constantly hounded to attend “owner meetings” which are just a trap to get you to upgrade. What WorldMark has done to me is they have “upgraded” me to the point where what I’m paying for isn’t worth the return. At one point I was told by a salesman that I never had to upgrade again but it that was a blatant lie! Their salespeople are very unprofessional and rude. There have been instances where I was sexually harassed during sales meetings, and they are aware of it. Reservation availability is horrible and it’s a nightmare trying to book a reservation when you actually want to vacation. All the debt and headaches are not worth it. With the flat out lies, the deceitful sales methods and overall lack of professionalism I have had enough of WorldMark. I called them to inquire about buy back information, but nothing came of it. What they told me in those sales meetings was all smoke and mirrors, they were only trying to get me to commit to giving them more money and they trap me into a contract. They have failed to keep their promise to me for many years! I can’t warn people enough, STAY AWAY FROM WORLDMARK TIMESHARES!!!
