During our visit to Charleston, SC (staying at Lodge Alley Inn) as for we are Bluegreen participents. We were invited to meet with a represenative of BG to ensure that we were getting the most out of our ownership and update us on current events. Of course you get the $50.00 coupon for doing so, and away we went on tour. We voiced our compliants and why we have only used the system 3 times in the past 10 yrs, but we still pay the fees. Our main concern was the frustration on booking online and with today technology and the money this company is making, why don't they have a more friendly system and time saving system? Our prayers had been answered, they have out done themselves and we were becoming excited about the new and inproved changes, along with now having access to all the RCI vacation spots due to BG winning a claim against RCI for hiding or holding properties from others. We were convinced that we are with a great company, then the "BOMB" was placed upon us, for access to this wonderful site, that with the click of a buttom we could find any date (s) available for the entire month or year and even specials without having to go week by week and resort by resort (which of course will cost you hours and sometimes days of your time), all for a cost of over $10,000.00, yes we could have access to this website for over $10,000.00 investment. Then of course they bring in the closer to seal the deal with any amazing offer, by saying the current price your being offered sinced you never took advantage 10 years ago, is more than half the going price (so current market price would have been for the same exact package is $20,0000 plus). Of course with a deal like this and in the moment of not wanting to let this deal pass, I went to every pocket, wallet and even my wifes and kids pockets to raise the funds needed ($10,000.00) without any success. I begged and pleaded if they would just hold this offer until I could get back with the money or personal information, it would be greatly appreciated (to my surprise they agreed). So off we went in search of the items needed to make this deal work not only for ourselves, but for the friends, family, unknown people, ability to never pay yearly dues again (what a dream come true), but of course my kids were to the point of death if they did failed to eat now and then. So, not feeling good about misleading the Bluegreen Rep., as for I committed to going only to retreive the items needed to seal the deal, we stopped in route to feed the kids and all I could think about was this deal. On and On I went about the amazing deal and travel, etc., then upon my first sip of that cold beer, it was like a rock fell from the sky and landed upon my head. I truly came out of another world and back to earth to wonder how I got to the place we were sitting. The true facts are just this, these guys are salesman and thrive on sealing the deal at all cost, at your families expense without any recourse or regret. Never, Ever, sign a deal on the spot, take time to reflect on what it may or maynot cause to your family debt. We can't pay the bills we have, chances are filing foreclosure may be in the near future to save some of what we have, and these guys were made aware of that, but didn't care, quote "finance it while you have good credit", but of course, I will in the future take the $50.00 and have a great lunch and may even spend more time with that BG Rep., in order to waste his time and save others at the same time. Good Luck and hope this helps others from getting into something they to will regret.
