I attended a RCI "free vacation" session, June and went through a lot of distress to cancel the membership contract I was intensely, high-pressured sell, into signing.
I made the decision to follow through with procedures to cancel within 24 hrs. The experience left me feeling like a "rape victim" because I was subject to follow up my decision to cancel by filling out and mailing a lot of paper work, making a lot of phone calls and I had to explain the reason I decided to cancel to each company representative I spoke to.
So after about 3 months of anguish and challenges over the deal, I thought I was through the problem.
Obviously, I was wrong. On the average I receive at least one phone call per month asking me if I want to buy, sell, or rent an RCI timeshare! I tell the representative to take me off the phone list because I don't own or want to buy or want to rent a timeshare! Usually rep is confused and can't understand why I'm saying I want nothing to do with a timeshare! I even told one rep, "Sure, I want to sell my timeshare.", and his reply was, "Do you have the deed?". Frustrated, I replied, "No! I don't own a timeshare but I keep getting calls from your company even though I have begged to be taken off the phone list!".
Each time I get the same response, "Your name will be deleted from our calling list". The last time this happened, last month, I told the rep that I planned to file a complaint to consumer complaints and to my state attorney general's office. He begged me not to file the complaint and assured me the calls would stop.
Apparently, he lied. I got my monthly call just a little while ago and now I'm following through with my written complaint and I had call rejection added to my home and cell phone features today.
I've undergone frustration and harrassment for over two years just because I gave RCI my information.
