Avoid Wyndham Timeshares at All Costs
Avoid Wyndham Timeshares at All Costs We were lured to Gatlinburg in September 2023 with a "free weekend" offer that turned into a nightmare of deceptive sales tactics and financial fraud. After declining their initial offer, a supervisor appeared with artificial urgency claiming a "better deal" was available only that day. We were told payments would be $300/month to Wyndham but actually pay Barclays with different terms. They NEVER disclosed mandatory maintenance fees which would have been an absolute dealbreaker, nor the hidden $200-300 resort fees for every booking. They falsely promoted this as an investment that would appreciate in value and rushed the contract signing without allowing time to read documents. Despite requesting the contract be in Richard's name, they made me the primary account holder, and most egregiously, they NEVER disclosed that our children would inherit this financial burden. The post-sale experience has been pure harassment with daily calls to both of us, billing discrepancies between Wyndham and Barclays, damage to my credit score, unauthorized credit limit increases, and continued demands for disputed payments. The undisclosed fees alone make this fraudulent as they deliberately hide massive ongoing costs until after you sign. We've received zero value while being financially devastated by hidden expenses. This company preys on consumers with high-pressure tactics and outright lies. Their "free weekend" is bait for financial fraud, and we're demanding complete contract cancellation due to fraudulent sales practices. STAY AWAY - you'll regret it forever.
