Has anyone ever helped a client/friend get out of a timeshare?
I have a client that got duped into a Holiday Inn timeshare and they owe about 8k at 15% interest plus the lifetime of maintenance fees each year.
We called one of the timeshare exit companies and they said for 5 or 6 grand they can make it go away. The basic idea is they are encouraging the client to just simply not make the payments on the loan or anything else and then when they get dinged on their credit report they will go in and fix the report for them.
That just seems a little bit sleazy to me. But maybe that's how you do it.
I am just wondering if we call the company and pay off the 8k they owe and then ask to cancel is that an option?
How does one get out of this?
