Wyndham WorldwideReviews of wyndhamworldwide.com

Where do I even begin with Wyndham – I guess with the lack of ethics, lack of compassion, and lack of integrity. Wyndham is so widely known, yet no one really knows how evil they are, not even the PGA Tour where they sponsor one of their events. They take your money and get you into a contract with absolutely no regard for your personal situation even after telling the sales team “NO”. This is quite sad, and disheartening to say the least. We’re now thousands of dollars in debt, for nothing. Since becoming “owners” with Wyndham, we have not been able to use this timeshare once! Do not engage with Wyndham under any circumstances.

My experience with WorldMark has been absolutely awful! My mother and I got lured to a presentation when we checked in and it was all downhill from there. The salesman, Darin, gave us tons of information and about 98% of it was false. He told us what we wanted to hear- we could vacation at Disney World, Italy, Cancun- we could earn points to pay for our monthly dues with their credit card- we would be paying a one-time fee. All lies! That is probably why the employees rushed us through a 50+ page contract in 15 minutes. It was only when it was too late that we realized we were lied to. The monthly payments are outrageous. $120 for dues, $334 for the loan, $102 for the down payment. Then there are fees they don’t disclose, like the $150 per reservation for cleaning fees. They also offered us a “free” vacation that ended up costing us $449! WorldMark is a scam, and they are only out for your money. Be careful doing business with them, in fact, you should avoid them all together.

DO NOT go to Wyndham, DO NOT even SPEAK with Wyndham! You’ll lose your sanity, peace of mind, and will become responsible for a loan more expensive than what this timeshare is worth. You cannot use it when you’d like, or even where you’d like, you must settle and why settle when you are paying thousands of dollars. The answer is simple… you shouldn’t. Keep your sanity and money, save your time, there’s nothing good that will come from you spending hours of your vacation time in their sales room. This was such a scam to us, and it reminded us of a pyramid scheme, minus having to sell product(s) on their behalf. We wish we never would have fallen for their “gifts” that wedged the door right open. They’ll lie and deceive you into signing a contract, and worse yet, they never told us about our legal right to cancel this contract. The sales staff fraudulently opened a credit account on our behalf, and we had no clue this was done until we received a statement in the mail. Overall, you won’t get any of the promised benefits, but they still promote that you will. It’s a never ending cycle of lies with Wyndham.

Being involved with Wyndham is like ‘making a deal with the devil’, and you receive nothing from that deal. We’ve owned Wyndham since 2011 and the amount of trickery that goes on is impossible to believe. Out of nowhere they moved our home resort out of New York and when we discovered this and demanded it be changed back, they would only do that if we upgraded! We were suckered into believing their lies, repeatedly. Wyndham can spin anything you say into a “benefit” of purchasing. We were told our points COULD be passed down to our kids after we die. However, that was a lie and an infuriating one at that. What happens is, your kids/next of kin will become FINANCIALLY OBLIGATED to take this on. They also gave us a false sense of security, by advising THEY WOULD BUY BACK our timeshare if we ever wanted to sell it to them. Everything we thought was perfect, has been a never-ending nightmare.

Wyndham Destinations, where do we even begin. Let’s start in 2018 when we were held hostage for 3+ hours after being told this meeting was supposed to be 45 minutes. We declined their offers 3 different times, until we were so mentally worn down that we settled on a package and signed. Our next encounter was in 2019, and what a doozy! We were told our entire purchase in 2018 wasn’t done right, and they were going to make it right. Wyndham offered us an 8-day/7-night stay, that we have yet to receive, and it’s been 4 LONG years. We’ve done some research on our own, and people are selling these for $1!! This is beyond infuriating. We’ve spent more than $40,000 on something that’s selling for $1 and it’s still sitting there! Do yourself a favor and avoid Wyndham Destinations and ALL timeshares for that matter. My research shows an abusive pattern across the entire industry, but because Wyndham is the largest timeshare in the world, I feel like the other timeshares are following their blue print on how to manipulate and deceive its customers into buying a worthless timeshare.

The sales reps were very dishonest. They asked me to sign so that they could try to get me an extra couple of weeks then didn't give them, instead got a credit card in the mail that they said I applied for. Very unethical and probably illegal.

We’re writing this review today in hopes that someone will not make the same mistake as us with Club Wyndham Vacations. My spouse and I are both Retired Marine Corp Veterans, who served this Country proudly and risked our lives, and we were misled and lied to into getting this Timeshare. We both go to the yearly updates, and every year it’s the same spiel, and we don’t upgrade. However, this last trip/meeting took us for a turn that made us want nothing to do with Club Wyndham anymore! The salespeople took our drivers licenses, and tried signing us up for a credit card, despite us advising AGAINST IT! We knew our credit wasn’t the best, and yet they still ran it without our permission, and it was declined. They wanted us to put down $5,000! That’s our whole savings just about. Not to mention we were told this would be 60-minutes long, at this point, we were in the meeting for 4+ hours!! PLEASE do not waste your time, money, energy, and/or efforts. You can travel to better places, for longer times, for less money than a Wyndham timeshare will cost you! They don’t care AT ALL if you’re a Veteran, or disabled, nothing of the sort, Wyndham WILL DO WHATEVER TO GET YOU TO SIGN! RUUUUUUNNN!!!!!!!!!!

Where do I even begin with Wyndham Resorts? You’re told lies right off the bat ranging from something as minuscule as the length of the presentation to something as consequential as NOT BEING ADVISED OUR LEGAL RIGHT TO CANCEL, and a range of lies in between. DO NOT waste your time with Wyndham because that’s exactly what you’d be doing. We were held captive for 4 hours, when we were told this would be no more than 1 hour long, and I declined more than 3 times to 4 different reps! One of the salesmen was a complete dog, being overly aggressive with my friend who came with me. He grabbed her hand to make sure she wasn’t wearing a wedding ring, flirted with her the entire presentation and then had the audacity to ask for her phone number at the end. I only purchased to get my friend out of there and to protect her, had I known I could cancel, I would already be out of this mess!
