ITRA - What to do if you have a Timeshare you can’t sell – Contact International Timeshare Refund Action

Timeshare Complaints

The Timeshare Industry is mostly a legitimate Real Estate business with many people owning timeshares who are very happy with them. Though the Timeshare Industry's name has been tarnished by a few unscrupulous people who have set up resorts and fleeced owners of thousands of pounds and tied them into contracts they can't get out of. It's these few companies that have tarnished the name and caused many of the Timeshare complaints made against the industry, with many seeking a Timeshare Refund on the property many feel they were coerced into buying by very aggressive sales tactics.

Timeshare Refunds

Now with the current economic climate with many owners facing not only the rising costs of being able to use their weeks, but the growing cost of the annual maintenance fees, it becomes difficult to sell your timeshares without getting conned when you decide you want to be rid of your weeks. Constrained finances lead households into desperate situations, where they can be easily taken advantage of. To avoid scams, you should consider your legal options. So, the first step is to get a lawyer that you can trust. One thing you can be sure of, is that there is no such thing as an upfront fee. This is usually what scammers do to con money out of timeshare owners. Refuse to pay such fees, which can also be called different names. Whatever it’s called, ask about it and don’t pay it immediately. Investigate. Before you agree to anything, research about the company you’re dealing with. Better yet, double check the company with the Better Business Bureau. Don’t bite on deals that seem too good to be true—they probably are.

ITRA

Our objective at ITRA and Owners Action has always been to support the consumer in timeshare disputes and over the years of operating has entered into dialogue with thousands of timeshare owners from which we have discovered a pattern of abuse, deception and even fraudulent issues that have been systematically perpetrated by many of the major timeshare industry players to the detriment of owners. This has resulted in a Class Action by hundreds of disgruntled owners being brought against some of the companies to obtain a Timeshare Refund or settlement or closure of their ownership contracts. Over the past 3 years ITRA and Owners Action has with the support of its members and sponsors who have funded the investigation of these issues are now pursuing the coordination of a claim to the courts on behalf of timeshare owners who can justify due cause for a Timeshare Refund or some form of compensation, for all the distress caused on the grounds that their original timeshare purchase was not of merchantable quality and who believe that they have been fraudulently misrepresented by various organisations in respect of the purchase and ongoing use of their timeshare so as to render it virtually valueless and untenable and impossible to sell and to make things worse they are tied into a contract they can't break.
