			<description><![CDATA[It's a huge scam. Our friggin taxes and upkeep costs DOUBLED each year. I almost fell on the floor when they tried to tell me that I needed to pay $1800 a year in payments then another $800 a year in fees/taxes for a 1 bedroomroom with NO master bath, no dining table and ONE 6" window. For $2600 I can take TWO weeks of vaca at a nice resort or hotelwith bigger accomodations. NO DEAL!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Amanda, thanks for your feedback. I guess I didn't like to think that I'm walking away from my mistakes but this is really a scam. I really appreciate your encouragement and I'm going to stop paying NOW... we'll see what happens!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[You know, if everyone that didn't want their timeshare anymore just stopped paying for it at the same time and waited out the forclosure process WG would probably go broke and belly up...which they deserve.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[We were never sent to an outside collections department however they have a special Westgate collections department and they called us weekly trying to make us feel bad about not paying our debt and threatening to ruin our credit. I did make the remark that they probably should have checked our credit to begin with because it couldn't get worse(which isn't true at all but what did she know,lol?) We owed $6,500 and had 8.5 years to go. I can't see realestate going to collections...it's either foreclosed on or deed in leiued not "collected" upon although WG calls are beyond annoying and they get nasty which is why you cut the conversation short and hang up as nicely as possible. Collections are for unsecured debt usually. Have you ever heard of a collection dept. calling about a car payment? Of course not...the just repo the car. It takes 181 days of non-payment before they do anything at all besides call you daily/weekly. We are in Florida and died in leiu laws may differ from state to state so you'll want to check that. Honestly, the last thing in the world I'd be stressing about is a stupid timeshare if I just lost my home. I'd just get mad and make them drag me through the whole court hearing(which they MUST do to forclose and you have a right to be there). I can't see them putting the special effort of a legal team, court costs and such for 7k.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Did they ever send you to collection? I think that is my biggest fear. We recently had to short sell our primary residency and our credit score has lowered too. How many years/money did you have left to pay? I have about $7000 (not payoff amount). Do you think they would try to get anything from us for that amount? We did get the room promised - a one bedroom condo. I really appreciate your feedback Amanda!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hey, we just stopped paying after many attempts to get the room we were promised at the price we agreed upon. That makes them sit up and take notice. I sent a letter and kept copies of exactly why we felt scammed and included a pic of the floor plan we were given. It took 181 days. We just took the calls, cut them off in the pass by very politely explaining that we aren't paying another dime, have a nice day...click. If you argue with them they get super nasty. Not worth it. They called once a week for 6 months. Soon after we were offered the deed in leiu. The market had already tanked sooo bad that we acutally got a $1500 tax credit for loosing money on the property. It's simply not worth it to them to forclose. Even if they do forclose, you can drag it out for a very long time just by showing up at the forclosure hearing. That makes it too costly for them to try and collect. They will bother you for a SOLID 6 months but hell, it was worth it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[We ended up being offered a deed in lieu of forclosure. Really, it's just a piece of realestate. If you don't want it, stop paying for it. Send in a letter and keep a copy that you feel scammed. It taks 181 days. Until then just take their calls and politely tell them you refuse to pay a dime because you feel scammed. Don't argue, don't allow the call to go on long enough for them to get nasty...which they will. The market has tanked out and time shares are worthless which works out really well in your favor. We even ended up with a $1500 credit on our taxes because we lost money on the property. People, stop stressing. It's JUST real estate. Let it go.]]></description>
