Westgate Resorts
Collection letter for timeshare I never agreed to buy

Traveling & Tourism

My family and went for a vacation to Pigeon Forge TN and were approached by some people saying they would give us fifty dollars and free breakfast if we would listen to there ninety minute timeshare.

We went and they showed us the condos. We told them we just couldn't afford it right then.

Well the man would not to no for an answer. He said well let me offer you a vacation to Florida for a good price. We listened because we did not want to be rude and mean.

He said if we gave him fifty dollars and when we got home we could send him one hundred and fifty more then we could make payments and I don't remember what the payments were, but the total would end up being approximately 800.00 and he told us if we decided we didn't want it when we got back home that we were not obligated to buy.

He said if time went by and we decided we wanted it we would have to go to the resort in Florida and redo the contract. Well we came home and never heard anything else about it. My husband and I said ok we can't afford it anyway because he had to have surgery on his knee and had to be out of work for 3 months.

Then last week I get a letter from this collection agency saying we owe them 1405.00. So I called Westgate Resort couldn't get anyone on the phone. Finally got someone and he said I can't find it in the computer. I waited a day and called back and he said oh yeah you signed a contract you have to pay it. Not only did they say that but also that it's going to be on my husbands credit report. This company is really a scam. Just a little advice if anyone walks up to you and offers to show you timeshare DON'T DO IT.
