      They have not live up to they words, In November 25, 2023 my husband and I went to a meeting and we upgraded our TimeSharing Resort from Tree Tops PA to Grand Seas Resort, Datona, FL paid an addition fees for the upgrade we were told Exploria and RCI would be our exchanged company and we would be given Account numbers for both we did received our Exploria Account number and not our RCI number therefore we cannot make any resiverations with RCI. I call Exploria several times even wote then as to why we have not received our RCI number only to be given the run a run. They are very misleading they are scam artists who got me for a bait and switch.

      Our journey began at Club Exploria LLC, where we offered a great deal to stay in Orlando for a cheaper price. However, we had to attend a presentation. I asked what the presentation was about but was told it was just a tour. We were told the duration was 90 minutes, but it lasted more than 2 hours. The explorer's agent lied to, deceived, and misled us. They gave us incorrect information. As we belong to a minority group, we are Four Filipino women who feel we were fully taken advantage of, given information that was too good to be true, and told things that were not correct by their agent.One of the instances we were told was the bonus stay benefits of the four places: Orlando, Daytona, PA, and TN. We could stay at these places for five days for only 75 dollars plus tax, and we could add days for another 75, but this all lies. When I called their member services, we were only allowed to stay three nights (on weekdays) or two nights (on weekends), one of the other, and you cannot combine it. Another lie was that we would be given another manager bonus point of 301, so we would have a total of 602. But it was not placed on our account. What I mentioned above is just one of the many.:We feel we were rushed. The notary did not explain all the papers we signed; they just pointed out where to put our initials and signatures.They dont mention the ten-day grace ****** at all.We were told we would get a better price if we signed up that day. We were mandated to pay a deposit (No exemption) with our credit card that day.We were not told about any extra or possible annual increase in the future We have never explained all their complicated online platforms, They did not disclose possible changes or increases in the maintenance fee, tax, or assessment. We only found out about these lies two weeks later when they sent an electronic membership ready for us to sign up. By the time we knew it, it was too late because we were out of the 10-day grace ******.

      ******************,thank you for reaching out the Better Business Bureau with your concerns.Although we appreciate your concerns and feedback, after a thorough review of your encounters with Exploria Resorts, we find that no fraudulent representations were made as you and your three friends agreed to the terms and conditions of your Club Exploria ******ship as set for the Club Exploria Purchase Agreement which you all signed and acknowledged. We would like to remind you that attending a sales presentation is completely voluntary and you were able to leave the presentation at any time, however you decided to stay and purchase. Club Exploria, LLC provides clear and unambiguous disclosure in all its applicable advertising that a timeshare sales presentation lasts an average of 90-minutes. At the conclusion of the timeshare presentation, if a purchaser decides to purchase, the purchase process can take longer. That purchase process includes the discussion of price and purchase options,providing additional information on RCI and other exchange programs; processing applications; obtaining credit reports; preparing contract documents;scheduling and completing the closing with a Verification Officer, etc.Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing in advance how long purchase process will take to complete. We would also like to remind you that the 10 (ten)calendar day right to rescind is located directly above your signatures in bold face font in multiple locations throughout the documents. According to our records, this right of cancellation was not received from you or your friends within the rescission period. We encourage you to contact our ****** Services team at ***************************************** to learn more about how to use the product you purchased. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address this matter.

      Exploria Resorts deceived and manipulated us while suffering through multiple hours-long high-pressure sales scheme. We are in our mid-70s, and their salesman took advantage of us because of our age and naivete regarding timeshares. He made a series of claims that have been proven demonstrably false. When we informed him that we werent interested in getting tied up in a years-long commitment, he claimed that the timeshare would appreciate, and that if we werent satisfied with it, we could return it to Exploria at any time. When it came time to sign, we were rushed through the process and not provided with all the information we needed. For example, we were never told about our legal right to rescission or given a public offering statement. We also were not told that our maintenance fees would increase over time. Had we known all of this at the time of signing then we wouldnt have moved forward with this purchase. Eventually, we called Exploria to express our dissatisfaction with the whole thing and requested they buy it back as it wasnt all that was promised. We were told that Exploria doesnt buy back. We informed them of what their representative had promised us, they informed us he was no longer employed by Exploria. It is shameful that their representatives would go to such great lengths to ******* us into a contract that they knew we wouldnt be able to use. Perhaps worst of all though is the fact that they assured us we could sell the timeshare back to Exploria at any point if we werent satisfied. Because of all the lies and pressure, we experienced, we have requested the termination of our contract.

      My experience with Club Exploria began when my husband and I decided to go on vacation to Orlando, Florida. I had selected a package that would give me a gift card incentive if I attended a mandatory orientation, which included a week's vacation. When we arrived for said vacation, we were given a tour of the resort and I was introduced to *****, who took charge of the presentation. ***** presented us with options and package prices, but they were ridiculously high, and because we rejected the offers, he had his boss *** intervene. *** offered us several options with double points. When I asked him if he ever decided not to keep my timeshare, he told me they would buy it back. Including the tour and the constant pressure for us to accept the agreements, the entire process took hours. We were passed on to ****** who rushed us to sign the contract and the information she provided me was not the same information she presented to me when I saw my online portal showing me a payment of $2,411.00 annually. I called Exploria and they told me it was a mistake and my maintenance fee is $1,205.50. I was very upset because they lied to me and told me that the only thing I had to worry about was my monthly payments of $176.21. When I told them I wanted to sell it back to them, they told me that wasn't possible and they don't do it. ****************** and ****** lied to us. Now I am fighting to get out of this contract. Please take my advice and don't get involved with these thieves. It is better to pay for an Airbnb. Be careful, the workers will lie to you just to get you to sign something you will never be able to get out of.

      My Maintenance has gone up multiple times a year with absolutely no explanation as to why? I have a monthly payment withdrawal for maintenance fees and even though the amount consistently goes up, they still have the nerve ever year to bill me for a Shortage? If you adjust my monthly withdrawal to a higher amount to cover the cost, why is there a Shortage? I think this organization is borderline criminal!BTW I had to give 1 star to continue, they deserve NO star at all!

      My H.O.A fees went from $1,800 a year in 2023 to $11,500 a year in **** with Exploria in orlando how can this be legal. They raise it what ever amount they want. I had to give back my deed on a paid off timeshare becuse i couldn't afford the fees. So now they have my money and my deed what a rip-off.

      First I would like to say we were members for over 20 years and paid our dues up front every year. When we bought 20 years ago the information that was given to us turned out to be true and we had 20 years of good memories. However the last time we were there, we went to an "owners update". That has been the biggest mistake we have done in our 20 years of marriage. Had what they told us was true, then we would gladly continued to paid the amount that we had agreed to. However like some previous people said, there was many things they did not tell us and many things that were just not true. We have tried to contact them several times, but all we get is a form letter. We have even offered to continue our old membership and would gladly pay but they are not interested. We have even contacted lawyers to see what we can do. It is a sad fact they feed off the trust of older senior citizens like ourselves. No wonder timeshares get a bad name.
