Having problems booking a holiday through Interval International? If so, this could be because the people who sold you your timeshare weeks or points weren't honest about how the exchange system works or the points required for the places and times you wish to travel. Overselling by companies such as Club La Costa and Diamond Resorts was part of the selling scam that lured thousands of Brits into products they wouldn't have purchased if they had known the facts. The mis-selling of timeshare products is commonplace and that is why it is known as the most mis-sold product in the world. The timeshare industry isn't and has never been regulated by an independent third party, as such thousands of Brits have ended up with useless products which are not fit for purpose.

The lack of availability and poor value for money has led to many timeshare owners getting out of their timeshare ownership contracts and reverting to traditional holidays. Many timeshare owners find booking at their own resorts cheaper and more accessible through internet booking sites! As many of you know, timeshare resorts are no longer exclusive and full of people who haven't paid thousands of pounds to buy a timeshare and do not pay any maintenance fees. Timeshare companies are actively double-dipping, taking reservation fees from non-owners and demanding maintenance fees from owners who cannot even book the holidays they were sold. In light of the lack of transparency and honesty from timeshare companies, what is your best course of action?

Thousands of mis-sold timeshare owners have been using our No Upfront Fee Timeshare Exit and Compensation Claim services to get out of their timeshare contracts and maintenance fees and get their money back. In 2023, the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) and the High Court in London delivered huge final verdicts that saw thousands of Club La Costa and Diamond Resorts members qualify for more than 500 million pounds. These compensation payments are the responsibility of Banks such as Barclays, Shawbrook and Hitachi, which provided consumer finance for illegally sold timeshares. If you are having problems with your timeshare ownership and need advice, get in touch.
