Time-Shares - fraudulent contract


Expert: Sean Austin - 10/23/2009

Question
My friends and I purchased a timeshare at Orange lake in March of 2009. We were all listed as co-owners with be being the primary. A down payment was made from the four of us. We all signed a contract and was given temporary membership cards. Our first payment was due in July and was suppose to be taken out of everyone accounts separately. Well that didn't happen, they took it all from mine even though we gave them account information. I finally received a permanent membership card and no one else did. We we told that they would be coming along with the deed. Well we haven't received anything. Today one of my friends spoke to 7 representatives from Orange Lake and was told That the time share only belonged to me meaning that they were not co-owners. We all received separate contracts with us listed as co-owners. With this new information they cant use it without me and that's was not what we were told. I cant afford to make this payment by myself without it hurting me financially. What can we do to get out of it.

                                        Thanks

Answer
Unfortunately Verita it sounds that you might have gotten scammed. I would suggest researching my company at www.timeshareaide.com we specialize in getting people out of there contracts when there has been possible fraud or misrepresentation. It definitely sounds like there has been both in your case. If that doesnt work out I would also suggest trying to sell it fast so that you can get it off your hands.
