Bluegreen is horrible!I have tried to cancel with Bluegreen directly, but they have been nothing but unhelpful and dishonest in their dealings with me, my maintenance fees started at $1,500 and now they have increased them to almost $4,000 and all of this for a service we are not able to enjoy due to their lack of availability.Bluegren told me that I would need to pay almost $10000 to cancel my timeshare. This is a very large amount of money to ask for, especially considering that my timeshare is completely paid off! $50k+ paid off only after owning it for roughly 14 months, thats how excited I was to have a "vacation club" Bluegreen should be refunding my money, not demanding more of it.I am frustrated with my current situation receiving bills from Pinnacle recovery. I want to deal directly with Bluegreen, the company that I initially entered into an agreement with. It is important for me to have a direct line of communication with bluegreen as they are the ones who hold the responsibility for my account.I expressed my desire to cancel the timeshare to Bluegreen on multiple occasions, but they wont help. I been taken advantage of by Bluegreen.I do not recommend Bluegreen to anyone!Sincerely,***** **********Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

Bad Bad Bad!!!I regret buying Bluegreen as their standards for accommodation have gone for us to a new low!The air conditioners rattle! Some rooms are not air conditioned. The price has ************ two rooms we stayed in at the ********* this year there were cockroaches, Yes!! cockroaches!The last person I talked with on the phone I felt was threatening me because I voiced complaints about a resort!! ****** felt it his duty to completely repeat and repeat. He would monitor our complaints as if the customer should just be quiet???? Even if their were safety issues???? At a sales presentation my husband was referred to as an IDIOT!!!???? if we did not buy and I know after chatting with people at the pool that we are not the only ones this happens to!!! Obviously the ****** is putting up with this??????? I wish I could rate Bluegreen less than a 1! I see again we are not the only ones...................Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

Our relationship with Bluegreen began on 11-4-22. My wife booked a 3-day stay at the Bluegreen Club 360 in *********, through her job at the Cabelas distribution center in ******, ****. She thought that Bluegreen was part of the ************************************ Trusting that connection, we believed Bluegreen would be dependable and honest. During the first two meetings, my wife's employment with Cabela's was mentioned, along with our belief that Bluegreen was owned by ******'s, yet no one corrected us. As part of the sales pitch, we were told we could transfer our points to *** since we arent really the type to lounge around at resorts. We werent informed about any fees associated with joining *** or when booking a trip through ***, and my wife and I prefer to explore the world rather than just relax by a pool, which is what most Bluegreen locations offer. After considering the *** system, we decided to purchase the smallest share available. The paperwork was prepared, a Bluegreen credit card was issued for the down payment, and we financed the remaining balance. We were also promised another stay at the Bluegreen 360 in ********* for training on how to use both the Bluegreen and ************ Given the repeated misrepresentations and unmet promises throughout our experience with Bluegreen, it has become clear that the contract we entered is fundamentally flawed due to the utterly dishonest salespeople. We were led to believe that our timeshare investments were sound and that we would have flexibility and value, only to face unexpected fees, misleading information, and a lack of support. Despite numerous attempts to address our concerns and rectify the situation, we have been met with dismissive responses and a lack of viable solutions. It is evident that our expectations were misaligned by what the salespeople told us and what the contract states, and we seek a resolution that allows us to move forward without further financial burden or disappointment.Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

I am giving Bluegreen at most a 1-star rating, because they at least responded to my letter. We had a discussion with Customer Care Management ******** ******* which turned out to be a total waste of time. To make a long story short, she pretty much summarized in the email we received that because we have an outstanding balance, they cannot assist us. I guess this is their way of politely telling us to kick rocks and oh well. She completely ignored the fact that in my letter I mentioned that even though we were vocal we had no intention of purchasing anything during the sales presentation, that they were unpleasantly persistent and wouldn’t take no for an answer. Our experience at the resort does not justify the yearly maintenance fees we are currently paying. From malfunctioning equipment, amenities in disrepair, to the showers in the rooms at Paradise Point having missing or broken rock tile, which is a joke. If you go online and book a Bluegreen room, you can literally book for pennies on the dollar and not be tied to ownership. What we are paying is extortion. Don’t buy into their timeshare, it is not worth it at all.Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

We are extremely disappointed with our ownership associated with the resort developer, Bluegreen. This has all been one gigantic *******. There has never been a point where any of the promises made by Bluegreen employees ever came to fruition. Even the promised meeting time always went over the promised time. To say that I am sick of Bluegreen would be a massive understatement. I am disgusted with this company. I want Bluegreen out of my life, and I demand that Bluegreen, due to its own failures to be an honest company, rescind our contract immediately. Our experience only highlighted the deceptive practices and misinformation that have characterized my dealings with Bluegreen sales. The lack of transparency, coupled with the pressure to make uninformed financial commitments, has led me to the conclusion that this contract was entered into fraudulently. During the closing, we were never told of our right to be able to get out of the contract within a specified number of days and when we got home, I thought what have I gotten myself into. The Public Offering Statement was also not disclosed, something that we later found out was a law violation of our consumer rights. Bluegreens notary service did not do its due diligence and it has cost us a fortune. We wrote to the company directly, and although they have reached out, we do not trust them, therefore we have consciously chosen to stick to written communication for our own protection. Dont do what we didthis is a major hassle, not to mention scam.Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

Hello Better Business Bureau, We really need your help to cancel our Timeshare purchase. While on vacation in **********, *********, we faced a lot of pressure from the ******************** even took our licenses and wouldnt let us go until we signed the papers. We repeatedly told them that we were not interested and that we did not want to purchase a *********, but they did not listen. The pressure was unbearable, and we eventually gave in and made the purchase just to be able to leave. Now that we are back home and have had time to evaluate the situation, we realize that we made a mistake and want to cancel the purchase. However, the Timeshare representatives are not cooperating and keep telling us that it is not possible to cancel. Wewere super pressured into purchasing the Timeshare and our rights as consumers were violated. We did not want to buy, but we were not given a choice. Now, we are stuck with a purchase we do not want and cannot afford. Is there a way to help us? Thank you, ********* and ** **********Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

This company has done nothing but disregard me, and I find it very frustrating as I have been nothing but patient even though I am the owner with the ongoing issues here! For months, I have been trying to get support, yet my efforts have been met with silence by them. This negligence is not only unprofessional but also raises serious concerns about the integrity of the business practices. Due to the issues that I have faced with them, I have been trying to make contact them to assist me with cancellation. I feel deceived, as there have been no benefits of any of this. It is quite frustrating. The lack of communication is not only disrespectful but suggests that my concerns are irrelevant as long as payments continue and all they want is my money. This perception that financial gain is prioritized over customer satisfaction is unacceptable and has only increased my frustration. Do not recommend this to anyone!!Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

We have stayed at 3 of Bluegreen Vacation locations in the past three years. We purchased their "sampler" package at first before we decided to fully buy in. All three locations have been EXCELLENT! They are extremely accommodating. We stayed in **********, ***************, and ******************** They always do their best to provide everything you need. The *************** has a private dock on the lake and provides a FREE shuttle to all the local attractions. Wisconsin Dells and ********** offered discounted tickets to local attractions. We have a small package which definitely fit my husband and I vacation goals. We have just enough points to travel once a year, but also have the ability to reserve "bonus time" (at a very reasonable rate) if we choose to travel more. They have several package sizes to fit your vacation goals. They ONLY reason I gave 4 stars rather than 5 stars is because we are not completely satisfied with the new HILTON acquisition.Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

Bluegreen Resorts has been very consistent in delivering stories to their owners, taking them into multiple contracts, with thousands of dollars in loan payments, dues and endless fees. We got pulled in by being inquisitive about a family members membership, many years ago. My husband and I promised each other we were just looking, but boy, did that change after a marathon chat with the sales ***. **** kept tweaking the price, making it harder to resist. Our kids were just 7 and 5 at the time, who we brought with us because we had no one to take care of them, but the sales team made sure to keep our kids munching on snacks while we got the sales pitch. We were told it was a solid investment, great for family vacations and even better for our wallet down the line. We were so naive when we fell for the its a great investment for your family, you will be able to take your family on vacation trips and you would also be making an investment by purchasing points that you can sell and make more money later on." The *** continued to pressure us into buying it so after 3 or 4 hours we gave in. Despite our hesitations, the pressure got to us, and we signed up for our first ***** points. Fast forward, and we found ourselves buying more points, convinced each time by the promise of more vacations and potential earnings. Each purchase felt rushed, with no time to question or review the contracts properly. Weve had so many contracts; it is anyone's guess as to what we own. Meanwhile, rather than helping us when we reached out, they have sent us to a third part agency to negotiate payments. In truth, they probably owe us money based on their vulture-like tactics.Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.

Was harassed constantly in June of this year to purchase a stupid vacation package for $149 I asked at that time if it was refundable at any time with no restrictions and was told yes. I'm trying to cancel this wasted vacation package and they won't refund my money because it's been over 30 days. I will never vacation with them.Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.
