    I have been trying to get out of my contract for 2 years. I am law enforcement and just retired. I can no longer afford this. Wyndham told me when I reached that point then they would take back my membership. Of course, they probably lied during the sales presentation. But timeshare sales people for Wyndham are ALLOWED TO LIE. Then Wyndham sent me garbage mail to donate to a place called ARDA? ARDA is just a front for the timeshare companies. Both fueled by greed and NOT WILLING TO HELP YOU OR I!

    From my understanding, ARDA is a consortium of realtors (mainly timeshares) that was created to establish some rules and ethics of the timeshare industry. The problem is that it is mostly ceremonial and a creation of the timeshare industry to act like they are policing themselves. Example: We asked for ARDA's help with Royal Holiday and they really can't do ANYTHING other than ask Royal Holiday to contact us. Royal Holiday is acting unethically and their customer service rep said (over a recorded line) that I was not getting out of my timeshare...as though they are holding me hostage.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
