My story is very similar to Sarahlou's. We were also told by the salesperson at Westgate Resorts in Gatlinburg, TN that we could sell our Getaway weeks and make a little money from our investment with Westgate. We did not purchase a timeshare unit, but they offered us 4 Getaway weeks and would hold the "low" price of a unit that we were interested in for 2 years if we purchased a week's stay at the Resort in TN. We thought that sounded like a good idea, it would give us 2 years to find out how easy or difficult it would be to sell the Getaway weeks. Well, just like Sarahlou, we found out that those weeks are not to be sold. That is the rules at Leisure Time Passport/Interval International. Of course, this information wasn't brought to our attention until 3 months after we signed at Westgate and our $200 deposit was paid because we didn't get info. From Interval until then. It is a sentence on page 10 of the Leisure Time Passport brochure.
I haves stopped payment to Westgate and I have contacted an attorney. They deceived us with these Getaway weeks and that is what prompted us to sign papers at Westgate. I have read those papers extensively and NOT ONE PAPER that we signed at Westgate says that Getaway weeks can't be sold. You are only made aware of that AFTER your 10 day cancellation period is over and you get the brochure from Leisure Time. If this isn't deception, I don't know what is!
Would love to hear from anyone else out there who has been lied to about their Getaway Weeks!!
