Prestige Timeshare Marketing & The Famous Doctor From Venezuela. Timeshare Contract for months and months...
As the other lady from Ohio I was contacted by Prestige Timeshare Marketing in August. For $899 they could market and sell my Fairfield timeshare.
Since I wanted to get out quickly out of maintenance fees, I readily agreed... Prestige 'appraised' our property for $22K. Anthony Romano promised I would get offers in a few days, so far nothing in writing, only now David Harris "the manager" saying that a Doctor from Venezuela and his wife were about to pay full price and 14% interest on a loan, wow I said with the oil price thses people should be swimming in dollars now!!!
I spoke with 'David' in mid September and the timeshare was 'in contract' with a doctor and his wife. The only problem is that the Closing department had another 125 contracts ahead of me, Wow! They must be making a lot of money I said to myself.
In mid October I noticed that their website was down, I comforted myself saying, ummhh they must be having technical difficulties. Now It is been several weeks, I called David last week, "His sister died and he was in a funeral" how inconvenient, ahh?
Today I googled them again and I find that another lady from Ohio has been ripped off with the same story. What a conincidence!!!
As the lady from Ohio, yesterday I received an interesting call from another Timeshare Marketing company. When I said that we were listed with Prestige... The man on the phone said: I have bad news for you, they are out business, by now they must be wearing pinstripes. He was very insisting (they always are) he was even willing to waive 50% of his listing fee, isnt it interesting?
Interestingly enough, I just called Prestige, the "receptionist" responded, I told them that they were in good standing and that "DAvid" would call me, He hasnot
I hope more people are aware of this situation and let us know what to do I've been ripped off...
If you've heard a similar story from this ripoff company, please contact us.
