What started as a promise of "free" show tickets in Pigeon Forge quickly descended into a nightmare. After being lured into a "3-4 hour" sales presentation, we were subjected to aggressive, manipulative tactics by Wyndham's sales team. Despite clearly stating our limited vacation needs, we were repeatedly pressured toward oversized packages. When we declined, they'd return with marginally reduced offers still far beyond our budget. At one point, FOUR salespeople surrounded us, creating an atmosphere where we couldn't leave without signing. The high-pressure environment was unbearable. They insisted it was a "one-time offer" available only "today." When we asked for privacy to discuss, they hovered nearby, eliminating any chance of genuine deliberation. Eventually, we cracked under pressure. The financial manipulation was especially troubling. Unable to afford the down payment, they suggested opening a credit card—but returned with TWO cards instead of one. When we tried reading the contract, they rushed us through, deliberately distracting us from examining important terms. The reality of ownership has been nothing like promised. Despite multiple attempts, we haven't used our timeshare once in 18 months. Booking requires 4-6 months advance planning or substantial fees—details conveniently omitted during the sales pitch. The promised ability to "easily sell back unused points" was grossly misrepresented. The actual process involves booking vacations and submitting them to third-party resellers with no guarantees—if unsold, we lose both points and reservations. This experience has been defined by deception, pressure tactics, and broken promises. I strongly advise anyone considering Wyndham timeshares to run in the opposite direction—this "investment" is nothing but financial quicksand wrapped in a vacation fantasy.

My account reveals a deeply troubling pattern of predatory sales tactics targeting vulnerable consumers. What began as a seemingly innocent invitation to a "brief presentation" quickly evolved into a three-hour high-pressure sales ordeal that exploited my trust and financial situation. The systematic misrepresentations are alarming: sales representatives deliberately misled me about the nature of the presentation, pressured me into signing a complex 47-page contract, and manipulated me into a significantly more expensive purchase than initially discussed. The final contract price of $29,700 — far beyond the $10,547 that I believed I was agreeing to — represents a shocking breach of ethical sales practices. Most disturbing are the aggressive tactics employed by representatives like Alina Navarro, who ignored repeated refusals and wore down a 70-year-old widow through persistent, loud, and emotionally manipulative techniques. The contract's impractical point system and restrictive booking conditions further demonstrate a predatory approach designed to maximize profit at the expense of consumer well-being.

I purchased 161,000 Wyndham Points from another owner. Before the purchase was completed, Wyndham sent me a statement confirming that the monthly maintenance fees were only $68 per month. Fast forward a few weeks after the purchase and I received my first statement from Wyndham showing a monthly maintenance fee of $297 per month. I called them numerous times and they tell me that the agency i purchased the timeshare from lied to me, but Wyndham was the agency that produced the maintenance fee statement from the previous owner!! They just decided to bait and switch and inflate the monthly maintenance fee for me as the new owner. I told them to stick it where the sun doesnt shine because I am not paying. WHAT A BUNCH OF SCAMMERS!! STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS. Just book hotels as you need them- DO NOT GET INVOLVED WITH WYDHAM !!

Super 8 by Wyndham Hardeeville 19289 Whyte Hardee Blvd Hardeeville, South Carolina Absolutely filthy and horrible place. We are 2 seniors were compelled to stay there late night in March 16. Everything was dirty, beddings not changed, the bath and shower were full of human hair from all parts of the body. So, we could not sleep there, nor could we take a shower, in an extremally unsanitary situation. We showed our pictures to a front desk, but the manager was very sarcastic and refused to return our $110 that we paid for this less that 1 star garbage place. They should be closed down by SC authorities or by Wyndham headquarters. Let Public Beware. We will let everyone know on social media and beyond.

Given Wyndham Resorts’ unethical business practices, we requested that both of our contracts be immediately terminated as well as full refund of all payments made, as this situation has caused significant distress and financial hardship. In December 2023, my spouse and I (both 70 years old at the time) were first introduced to Club Wyndham by using RCI to stay at Palm Aire in Pompano Beach, Florida. As part of the terms of our stay, we had to attend a 45-minute presentation. However, this presentation extended to over 3 hours with claims that the timeshare purchase would be a real estate investment that would gain value over time. The two sales agents kept dropping the price and after presenting five offers that were "good for that day only," we made the unfortunate decision to sign our first contract. During this presentation, we were told we would be given exclusive accommodations in the Fountain building, which was only available to Wyndham owners. Upon checking in during our return visit in 2024, we weren't placed in the Fountain building (which wasn't private or exclusive). Instead, we were assigned a unit in a "newly renovated" building, but our room was old and run-down with filthy carpets, dented refrigerator, broken icemaker, and malfunctioning dishwasher. This is not the luxury unit that we were shown prior to signing our first contract. We are both retirees living on a fixed income, yet Wyndham Salespeople continually ignored our financial limitations to push these contracts on us. This financial malfeasance includes failing to disclose the high interest rate that would significantly impact on our monthly payments. Additionally, we were not provided with physical copies of either contract. It wasn't until December 2024 when my wife sent a letter in writing to the financial department demanding copies of our contracts be sent to us that we discovered basic consumer rights had been violated. Most egregiously, our legal right to cancel the contract without penalty was never disclosed to us. Since becoming members with Wyndham, we've only been successful in booking 1 vacation. Not worth the effort! Very Unsatisfied Robert and Shirley Robinson

I trusted that Wyndham Resorts values its reputation, but I have serious concerns. I wrote to them to state my profound disappointment in the way I was sold a timeshare and to lodge a formal complaint regarding the misleading and aggressive sales tactics employed by Wyndham Resorts. My experiences with Wyndham have been distressing and have caused significant emotional and financial strain. Moreover, the sales team at Wyndham Resorts have engaged in deceptive practices by portraying the timeshare points as a lucrative real estate investment. They assured us that these points would not only appreciate but also that they could be easily sold for profit. This representation was grossly misleading and proved to be false. Additionally, they made promises regarding the availability of vacations, cruises, wh070ich were either exaggerated or outright fabrications. The reality of the availability and the actual benefits of these points starkly contradicted the sales pitches we were given. The culmination of these experiences has left me feeling victimized by a team of greedy salespeople who prey on individuals through high-pressure sales tactics, misrepresentations, and outright lies about the nature and value of their offerings simply to pad their pockets. The lack of transparency, particularly in the contract signing process where documents were rushed through without a proper review of the costs involved, and the failure to receive a copy of the signed contract, are indicative of their deceptive practices. They need to step up before they have legal woes, assuming they don’t already.

My experience with Wyndaham is the scheduling of trips and the limited number of places that you can visit. The representatives are unpleasant and often suggest upgrading your timeshare which causes the price to go up without additional benefit. The last time I tried to schedule a vacation with Wyndaham in three different states I was told that the Wyndaham hotels or resorts were full. I found the representative to be very aggressive and unkind.

Unbelievable experience. Obviously prey on the vulnerable. The presentation went for about 40 mins and when I said I wasn’t interested yet in my life I got questioned over and over. I then had her manager come out and accuse me of just being there for the food and voucher (I did not get food). Then the manager threatened me I had signed to stay for 90 mins so I don’t get the voucher for the hour I spent there. So I sat and said I’ll stay the 30 more minutes. As I had two people now standing either side of me, I felt trapped and furious. I’m assuming this is what happens to older vulnerable people who say no then trapped and pressured. It was revolting. Ruined my holiday and what I thought Wyndham was about. You should be taken to court for not telling people you can’t cancel and selling their shares is difficult or lose money. Disgrace.
