Do you wish to, or have you already stopped paying your timeshare maintenance fees? Either way, it's essential to understand your legal position and your consumer rights.
Firstly, it's important to highlight that over the last ten years, we have helped thousands of timeshare owners recover their money from fraudulent Timeshare Exit and Claim companies. Criminals based in Spain and the UK are consistently developing new stories to tell timeshare owners. However, what remains the same is the cold call and the upfront fee. As such, if you do not wish to end up in the same position as thousands of other scam victims, do not engage with cold callers and do not pay upfront fees.
If you have not paid your maintenance fees for six years or more and your timeshare company has not initiated legal proceedings against you in the county court, you are not required to take any action. Similar to any debt, if the outstanding balance has not been enforced within the Statute of Limitations, no further action can or should be taken. The modus operandi of scam companies is to tell you the following:
- You are still on the timeshare register.
- The company that has taken over is collecting fees.
- That your timeshare hasn't been legally cancelled.
- You do not have the necessary paperwork to prove cancellation.
As with all scams, the tactic creates and offers to fix a problem or need. The criminals engaged in Timeshare Exit Fraud often seem genuine, knowledgeable, and convincing. Please don't fall for it! The criminal enterprises behind Timeshare Exit Fraud are those who sold you your timeshare. Due to the collapse of timeshare in Europe, ex-timeshare resort employees are doing all they can to earn a living by taking advantage of timeshare owners like you.
