Wyndham WorldwideReviews of wyndhamworldwide.com

If you are considering owning with this company, just know that no matter how many concerns you express there will be no solution. We have been trying to reach out to them over and over, but have not been able to make any progress at all with our situation. It is sad to see that they can be so shut off to the idea of someone not being satisfied with their company, but we will remain persistent and will not change the way that we feel about this. There has to be something out there that we can do to fix all this, and we won’t stop trying to find it.

If you are considering an ownership with Wyndham, let it be known that they are not always overly honest about everything. It has been a very frustrating venture from the start, and we are now aware that we are throwing our money away. It is unfortunate, but maybe our review can allow someone to avoid doing the same. All that said, we just want to get out of it and are still trying to find a way to do just that. Hopefully they will work with us, but hasn’t seemed that way so far.

Wyndham tricked my brother and I into a timeshare. After 5 hours in the “1-hour” presentation, we decided to buy, but not because we wanted to, but to get out of there. My brother told them he could not open any credit because he filed Chapter 13, they stated not to worry they were just using his income to qualify myself and he would not be included in the contract, yet they managed to get his name on the contract too.    I have had this timeshare for over 3 years, and I finally used it ONCE in Vegas this past July.  When I called for reservations, they had no openings, so I was forced to take a weekend and pay for two rooms, out of pocket roughly $600.00 for the weekend. When we got there, they tried to offer me another timeshare stating there were more places that we’re available to travel.  I also noticed they were renting rooms to outside individuals for a much cheaper price, when I’m an owner of this timeshare, I felt I should be paying less or NOTHING AT ALL – I AM ALREADY PAYING MORTGAGE AND MAINTENANCE.  I am a single mother with two young children, and I also just started a new job, that pays less which now puts me in a financial burden.    Don’t get tricked by Wyndham, like we did!

Esta compañía es más que nada una gran estafa al menos en mi caso me hicieron caer en una gran deuda a gave de mentiras. En unas vacaciones que tuvimos la gran bendición que nos otorgarán por una condición médica de mi hija a los estudios universales en Orlando Florida, nos abordaron unas persona ofreciendo regalos como gancho para asistir a una presentación de ventas que en su momento ellos lo llamaban un desayuno y recorrido por sus instalaciones. Siempre supieron cómo era que nosotros llegamos a dichas vacaciones al igual que nuestro hospedaje era en un lugar gratuito por parte de asociación sin fines de lucro nos hicieron mentir asesoradonos para que dijéramos que estábamos hospedados en un hotel. A la hora de la presentación nos llenaron la cabeza de mentiras y falsas ilusiones se aprovecharon de nuestra ignorancia hacia el tema de tiempo compartido. Nos hicieron creer que estábamos adquiriendo una propiedad en las instalaciones de Disney Word y que tendríamos vacaciones fácilmente y con casi nada de costo al hacernos propietarios, así es como lo manejaron toda la presentación pues caímos en la redes porque según ellos esto no tenía nada que ver con tiempo compartido hasta nos dieron varios ejemplos de las diferencias y pues tristemente cuando quisimos hacer uso de dicha compra no se podía porque no había disponibilidad entre una de las piedras en el camino. Espero que no caigas más personas que por el sueño de hacer obtener la manera de viajar se metan a un callejón sin salida. Por favor digan las cosas como son no nos agan presa de una vida llenada de deudas y sin posibilidad de usar nuestra compra!

Every thing about this company is reprehensible. During a sales meeting we noticed the saleswoman would leave the room when she wasn’t getting what whe wanted from us. She would come back and steer the conversation “mysteriously” towards something we had discussed while she was gone. She was using her cell phone to eavesdrop! She would leave her phone in the room with us, then go out and listen to our private conversations. The cost of this “vacation point” package has gotten so high we can’t afford to do things we want. So, when we contacted Wyndham about selling the points back, we were told one of our contracts wasn’t even worth enough for them to re-sell!! We are paying fees and mortgage on something Wyndham admits is worthless.

My wife and I experience with Wyndham and their employees can only be described as harassment. The dishonesty, deceptive sales tactics, false statements, and outright fraud we experienced is unbelievable. Originally, we were offered a free meal to attend their sales presentation but in hindsight, I wish I had just paid for my own lunch. Their employees told us that by purchasing a Wyndham timeshare we would be making a real estate investment that would continue to earn us rental income, we would have access to Disney theme parks and resorts with their points, and that we could travel worldwide on this membership. NONE OF THIS WAS TRUE. Instead, we are left with a mountain of fees that were never disclosed, the inability to make any reservations, and have already spent more than $7,000! To top it off, their employees never told us that there was a specific cancellation period allowed to us by law. Now we are stuck in this unending cycle and Wyndham has not responded to our requests to "cancel and refund our money". Take my advice and just buy your own lunch and save yourself the headache.

I am an US active-duty service member that was defrauded by Wyndham at one of their scam sales presentations. Do not make the same mistake I did. This timeshare has turned into a cancer. I was invited to one of their timeshare sales presentations with the promise it would be brief. It was not - instead it was 4+ hours of hell where they bombarded us with too many salespeople to count on breaking us down into purchasing their worthless product. They even took IDs from my wife and I at check-in and did not give them back so there was no way we could leave! There were so many lies! They claimed the timeshare held long term value and would be an asset passed to our kids. It is not an asset; it is a long-term liability we unfortunately will pass on to our kids! They ran our credit multiple times stating they were trying to get us the best deal possible. The deal was terrible, and the interest rate turned out to be very high. When we questioned this, they said we could refinance it at our bank, but we later learned that banks do not finance timeshares. They never went over the loan details so we did not even know what the payment would be; turns out we will be paying as much in interest as to the principle which made the monthly payment amount a very unpleasant surprise when we got the first bill. I was being deployed to Italy and specifically asked about usage in Europe and was assured reservations were easy to get and there were a lot of resorts to choose from. This turned out to be another lie, we have never been able to get reservations. They also left out the high fees I would have to pay IF I was ever lucky enough to find an available room. Do not do business with Wyndham!

Travel + Leisure, WorldMark by Wyndham, Club Wyndham, RCI – call it what you want, just know that you will never know what you own, have access to anything or understand the true COST of doing business with these entities. I have been associated with them for over 15 years and they are still playing games. They present at every opportunity that you can get access to everything you’ve ever dreamed of – that is a lie. We were told that if we did not use all of the points we had yearly, we could privately rent out our points for money to use to make our mortgage or maintenance fee payments – ANOTHER LIE! I was perfectly fine with my WorldMark ownership, until their own employees told me I shouldn’t be. I knew what I was getting with Worldmark, now with heir multiple entity associations, all I have are… - Maintenance dues that are out of control. - No evidence of property or room enhancement, which begs the question “where are my maintenance fees going”? - Availability is VOID - points expire and it is nearly impossible to rent them. - Outrageous interest rates. - NO humans to assist us with any of our issues. STEER CLEAR of Travel + Leisure, WorldMark by Wyndham, Club Wyndham, and RCI.
