SellMyTimeshareNow Reviews

I have already shared their contact info with a few others that were interested in renting out their Time Shares. Each one of these wonderful people have been so kind, caring, sincere, efficient, understanding, polite, and ultimately professional in every way. I can tell that they truly care about their travelers, as well as their clients, and hold everyone's best interest at heart! I highly recommend Time Share Services and give them all the stars available!! Thank you all for helping me this year! It has truly been a pleasure to work with you!

Original Review: April 6, 2016

On February 4, 2016, we were referred by another company to sell our timeshare through SellMyTimeShareNow, LLC. At first we were hesitant, at least my husband was very much hesitant, but we desperately needed to sell because we are struggling with payments, etc. On Feb. 23, 2016, we signed a contract through one of their executive consultant, **. He was very persistent and said they have good reviews, testimonials that have helped many people and I guess I believed them but not my husband.

After signing, ** was no longer in the picture. Although we were only going into 2 months of our contract, and no guarantee of selling our timeshare, we constantly wants to be informed at least, or be called as promised. ** told me on the phone to call me at least every 2 weeks to inform of what is going on, but nothing, no calls, NADA. I sent emails, phone calls and directly left message on his extension but no answer and no reply. At this point, we were getting the feeling of a big mistake in signing with them. It was a big mistake! Now, we are asking for full refund.

When listing to sell my timeshare I was shown timeshares at my ownership which had sold recently for more than I was listing for. I was told to list at around $10000 and to not worry about paying yearly dues as that would be covered when sold. I owed $750 in yearly dues. To foreclose I would have lost that amount. Instead I listed with SellMyTimeshareNow in October for $10000. I have dropped my price every 2-4 weeks and am down to $6000. I now owe another $750 in dues so am out of pocket over $3500 and probably will not get this sold through them. False advertising. I have not had one offer of interest on this property in Scottsdale, AZ.

I was told that I should hurry, spring was the best time to sell my timeshare and that it was worth like 12000. It's been close to a year the person that started to help me stopped after 3 months then it was someone else, never the same person again. I kept lowering and lowering the price and it never helped. Never have I received an offer. At this point I feel screwed.

They were very professional, placed the ad immediately and set out to help. When we finally got a contract much to our relief they kept us abreast each step of the selling process. I always received a phone call back in a timely fashion explaining exactly what was happening. Any snag I encountered was promptly addressed. One company wanted to charge us a hefty amount just to donate the timeshare. I highly recommend using SMT to sell your timeshare. They promised they would sell it and they did!!!

Once the property was marketed we began getting looks and then offers. We rejected the first few offers then set a minimum price which we finally received. The closing process, which is complicated by the property being in a foreign country, went smoothly. The folks in charge of the closing process explained the process in a detailed manner and any documents required were sent with clear instructions. I was updated on the process on a consistent basis. The process was headache-free and we are very grateful. We started the process in the middle of August and received our proceeds at the end of March. The folks to thank at SellMyTimeshareNow are ** who started the process, ** who actually negotiated the sale of the timeshare, and **, **, and ** who handled the closing. We are very pleased with the entire process and the service we received.

However the process with the closing and escrow has not gone as smoothly. One sale was finalized after 4 months and the other is still pending. Doing business via e-mail is a tedious process, documents need to be notarized and faxed to both the sellers and the buyers. This all takes time. But overall I would use SellMyTimeshareNow again.

In late January 2016, Timeshare Closing Services notified us via email that all required documents were sent to the resort to update their records with the transfer. The transfer could take up to 90 days by the resort. Timeshare Closing Services sent several emails to let us know they were continuing to follow up with the resort. The transfer was completed in early March 2016, and we received the proceeds of the sale in one week. I recommend SMTN. Everyone was very professional and easy to work with too.

I received automated emails anytime someone reviewed my ad. Eventually, one of them was a solid offer. While the transfer process took a little longer than I had imagined, I learned that was the nature of property transfer, not this company's doing. I was kept in the loop during the entire process and when I had questions, I got a real human at the other end of the line without having to wait. The best feature that I appreciated was the honest and open communication throughout the process. I would recommend SellMyTimeshare services as the most cost effective way to transfer ownership of anyone's Timeshare property.

Original Review: March 17, 2016

I've been reading all these reviews and I believe they are all lies. I paid off SellMyTimeshare to see my timeshare in Aug 2015 and I haven't heard anything from them as of yet. I called to lower the price on my timeshare and that was the last interaction. I wouldn't recommend this site to no one.

3) Closing. Very smooth and timely. Minor hiccups not worth mentioning.

When I finally agreed to list my timeshare with SellMyTimeshareNow, the agent gave me some great advice on the price to list my timeshare. I had suggested that we list the timeshare at a lower price to get it sold and the agent advised me to list it at a higher price because at the higher price is was still lower than the lowest price for a timeshare at my same resort. I took that advice and on the first day of listing, I received 3 people who were looking at my timeshare. Within one week, I had a buyer. I had full say in what selling price I was willing to take. The first offer was less than I needed so I countered with an additional price.

During this process, I had another offer from another party, which I declined due to giving the first offer the first chance. The first party countered with another offer and I accepted. During all this time, SellMyTimeshareNow kept me in the loop and sent e-mails to me letting me know the status of the sale. SellMyTimeshareNow handled ALL the paperwork and handled all the communication with my home resort. I have had nothing but positive experiences with SellMyTimeShareNow.

In closing, I would recommend Sellmytimeshare and ** wholeheartedly. I would also strongly encourage others not to use Timeshare Brokers & **.

I only encountered one problem with the one timeshare which is the last one being processed out of the 4; I Emailed the balance payment, but it wasn't received. The title company didn't know, but when I followed up over a week later, we fingered out that they got an Email from me that was empty. Other than that, which wasn't their fault, it was easy and smooth! Also, I liked that I had the option to do all the payments by phone and Email with my credit card, I got a discount for being a repeat customer, and the website is easy to use to narrow exactly what you are looking for. What a great experience, and I love what I got!

The whole experience was a positive one with guidance along the way from the staff at Timeshare, Inc. The only improvement I would suggest is that the phone number to contact the resort for reservation be changed to 800-990-8250. The number list on the document I received was 800-685-8736 and there was no way using that number to talk to a live person. I ended up calling Pueblo Bonito Rose resort directly and they connected me with reservations. Again that staff was extremely helpful in providing us with the week we wanted.

When you shell out this kind of money on top of the nightmarish mistake of a timeshare, you should be allowed some honesty and legitimate help. I don't feel I got either. I wish I had researched more and I think our best bet now might be hiring a lawyer / other company to just get us out... There are no guarantees a timeshare will sell, people! Or that something won't get buggered up in the selling process - which you need a lawyer for anyways, apparently! Or that you won't end up in extreme legal complications after donating a timeshare - something else you need to research - due to lies, lies, lies. These companies look for the vulnerable and try to get more money off them. Sad.

I contacted SMTN back in sept 2015. I was given a wonderful sales pitch about how my property could be sold very quickly yada yada. After giving them $1000, I was assured that no more money was to be spent in selling the timeshare as the cost of closing would be deducted from my $1000. I placed the timeshare for sale at $1000 hoping to recoup some of the money spent. I got what I felt were bogus offers. 2 I actually pursued.

I had to contact the prospective buyer, not them! Call was from a timeshare sell off company that wanted $3k to sell it for me. The other was a good offer since I had it for sale at $1 at this point in 2016. I contacted the buyer saying "yes that's the price and no other funds needed to sell it." Well their broker called them to tell them they needed to pay $850 in broker fees. Isn't that what I paid them for already? The deal fell through. When I called SMTN they told me how I signed an agreement stating that would be part of the sale. Sorry, When I paid $1k that was enough. These crooks will take your money and post it for you. I could have done the same thing on craigslist for free.

I was told that timeshares were selling well at my resort and there was a good market. I was told I would be able to sell it no problem. I've lowered the price again and again and not offer in almost a year. I've asked for info on other sales of timeshares at my resort but was told I'm not able to get that info but that they are selling. I would like to get my money back since there's no proof that they're selling anything. I don't recommend SellMyTimeshareNow!

Sellmytimesharenow.com promises great things, but never delivers! I reached out to SMTN.com back in June 2014 and spoke with Janice **. After a very upbeat, promising phone consultation and talking things over with the wife, I scraped up and borrowed enough cash to pay this company $1598 to sell our timeshare. What else was a couple struggling with health and financial issues supposed to do? Of course, we were promised the world.

I was assured that SMTM.com was the largest and very best at selling timeshares and that mine was a great, sought after property and would be a cinch to sell. I even heard it would probably sell within 6-8 months. That never happened. Again, they scam you into believing you will get results, then disappear after they get your money. As of writing this, almost 2 years later, we've received one fake inquiry for a ridiculously low amount of money and we are still stuck with the financial burden of our timeshare. Sure wish I had that $1598 back in my bank. Would be huge for my family during these tough times. Please help!

Back in March of 2015 I lost my job. My wife and I own 2 timeshares with Holiday In Vacation Club. In an effort to be sure we could pay our bills I inquired online to SellMyTimeshareNow about selling these properties. I received a callback in a very timely manner. After providing the required information, learning what we should be able to sell the properties for and paying the fees to list the properties; the properties were listed. The Executive Consultant I worked with understood our situation and felt at least one of the properties should sell in a timely fashion.

Over the first 6 weeks there was constant communications until after the second round of fees was paid (almost 2.5k in total). Then there was no communication unless I called SMTN. Each time I called I was advised we should consider reducing the asking price to help share the properties which I did. Last contact, again made by me, was in Nov 2015 and to date we still have not received 1 offer. Very disappointed and would not recommend anyone use this service.

I had contacted them originally to see about selling my timeshare and the lady that I talked with made it sound like the perfect way to sell it. After the initial consult, I said I needed to talk with my husband about it and she said she would call the following week. That she did (like clockwork) but I was not able to speak with her about it then. From that point on she kept on calling and saying "We wouldn't be in business for as long as we have been if we weren't the best and committed to helping you sell your property." She said all the right things to make me believe her... IE: My timeshare is in HOT demand and would sell quickly. I still felt like something wasn't quite right and I should have followed my gut instinct but unfortunately I did not. So after her sending me the contract and telling me the price to list my timeshare I went ahead and paid the $1798.

I thought (based on our conversation) that I would hear something within the next few weeks with either a contract from a buyer or about lowering the price but here it is a month later and I haven't heard one word from her since. Seems definitely like a SCAM! They lead you to believe in what they say but the second they have your money they are in the wind. Should have listened to my gut and ran away as fast as possible. So not only am I out the $1798 but I still own the timeshare and have to pay their fees as well.

First of all, I would like to advice everyone that doesn't have the time to schedule vacation within at least a year in advance. Stay away from time shares. But if for whatever reason you are stuck with one, DO NOT use Sell My Time Share Now, LLC. There are other option that do not require money upfront. I paid 998.00 to sell My Time Share Now back in January 2013 when I called then inquiring about how to precede to sell my time share, and what would be a reasonable price I order to make a quick sale. It is 2016 and still have it. I gave up on them, something everyone should do. Sell My Time Share Now deliberately said that it will sell within weeks if I list it for around 17,000. Long story short I never received an offer nearly one fourth of the suggested price.

I reduce the price several time and nothing. Lots of inquiries, but no sell. Not only that each and every offer requires closing fees that Sell My Time Share Now, LLC wasn't covering after all. Sell My Time Share Now LLC. took no responsibility of any kind. They claimed they are doing what they suppose to do. Neither they acknowledge to mislead customers to write them a check for something they misinformed in order to collect some money from people that doesn't know any better. Please get informed. DO NOT GIVE YOUR MONEY away that easy, specially to Sell My Time Share Now, LLC.

Like a lot of people, I purchased a timeshare through Wyndham and soon after realized I could not afford it. About the only option I had was to sell it on the resale market and after searching the web, I decided to give SellMyTimeShareNow a try. I spoke with one of their representatives and was led to believe that I could maybe sell my $45,000 timeshare for something close to $20,000. I paid them an upfront fee of $1598 which was my first mistake. This was on 5/7/15. Since then they have only called me once about a prospective offer. I was told that someone was interested in making me an offer and that they would contact me directly but they never did. I thought that part of the upfront fee was to have SellMyTimeshareNow act on my behalf and negotiate for me.

Also, after reading many experience with selling timeshares, I have found out that most people are selling theirs on eBay and are lucky with they can get a few hundred dollars. I am very dissatisfied with the customer service of SellMyTimeShareNow. I would think that they would check in with their clients every month or two, but I have not heard from them in at least 6 months. $1598 is outrageous to pay just for an online ad. I do not feel that they are doing anything to sell my timeshare.

Original Review: Jan. 29, 2016

I was told that I should list my property right after labor day because this was a "hot time of year for resale". The salesperson told me that the recommended range is between 16k-17k. I listed at 14900 and no offers, I dropped the price two more times down to 12500 and still no offers, not even one. I went on the website to see what the other listings looked like and they have 1 bedroom listings being listed at 2k. Why would someone tell me that the recommended range is between 16k -17k when there are listings on there for 2k? I called to ask this question but nobody has answers.

They also listed mine as a 1br deluxe but don't know the difference between a 1br and a 1br deluxe. 3 different people I spoke to and no one knows the difference between the 1br and 1br deluxe and no one can explain why there are listings for 2k but I was told I should list at 16k. Of course this is all after they have taken the listing and closing fee in full. COMPLETE SHAM.

I have a timeshare to sell. I searched the Internet in hopes of some help selling it, I came across SellMyTimeshareNow.com. I was reluctant to list with them after my first conversation with the representative and based on the online reviews (lot of bad reviews). After telling them no, the representatives kept calling, and then lowered the price a few times, then eventually the Manager (she claimed to be) called and she sounded knowledgeable and assured me that my particular timeshare location was extremely popular and were selling for more than my expected price and would sell soon. I was pretty much guaranteed my timeshare would be an easy sell. Under their extremely professional skillful high-pressure sales tactics and their eagerness to take your money by saying what you wanted to hear, I was persuaded in the high hopes of selling my timeshares and gave them a try.

After signing the contract with them, no one from SellMyTimeshareNow has reached out to me or given me the update as promised. I never heard a word from them since. Weeks then months gone by, my listing appears to still be on the site among the thousands of listings and hundreds in my timeshare location (contrary to what I was previously told that there were only some listings in my timeshare location), with no nibble, nothing.

I've asked them to provide a list of recent sales at my timeshare location and of similar listings as evidence of something is being sold there, but they said they can't share that with me and all that information is being handled by the closing company that they forward you to when you actually get a buyer. It appears that this company is just collecting unreasonable amount of fees to list the timeshare on a website that may or may not attract any buyers. I agree with others that this company needs to be investigated and put a stop for them to scam more people.

Original Review: Jan. 20, 2016

In looking to sell a timeshare I was not utilizing. I spoke with a gentleman at Sell My Timeshare Now. He stated that my particular timeshare location was extremely popular and were selling for upwards of $30,000. He also ensured me that I would deal with him and only him directly until my timeshare sold. After enrolling (now over a year ago) I have not heard from the original man I spoke with since making my payment and I have repeatedly dropped my listing price to attract offers (currently cut the price down to $6,000) without a single inquiry.

Frustrated I reached out to customer service and requests that a manager contact me. This time I spoke to a lady who informed me that they do not guarantee a sale (understood) but also went on to say that they have so many timeshares in my locations and that limits my chances of making a sale. Also, that people didn't make money on resale. Quite a different tune once I paid for the account vs. when they were attempting to make the sale. I do not recommend wasting your money here.

Original Review: Jan. 14, 2016

When we contacted the company, we were told our week that we owned at the Berkshire was the "prime" week and people were flocking to places such as ours. It was also the "prime" time for us to sell. We've lowered the price over and over and over and not 1 person interested. We'd gladly get rid of it for less than we paid, but they haven't provided us anyone who wants it. We want a refund, but they won't offer it unless we sell it through another place.

Original Review: Dec. 29, 2015

I contracted SellMyTimeshareNow in December 2014. If only I had read the reviews first, I have not heard from this company since they received my money. I have lower the price still haven't heard anything. Today I called my resort and turned my unit back in, I have owned this unit since 1985. I will never recommend this company to anyone. I think this company needs to be investigated.

I contacted SellMyTimeshareNow with the hopes of selling my timeshare at the Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas. They informed me that it was their hottest selling timeshare location and that my particular timeshare would be worth somewhere in the mid $20,000s. I listed the timeshare for $25000 since it's right in the middle of the 20's. But of course this came at a cost of roughly $1700 to do so. Since then... crickets. The only correspondence I've received is when I ask them to lower my price ad (which I've done several times now) and they do. Still, only crickets, no nibbles of interest what so ever.

I've asked them to provide a list of recent sales at my timeshare location and of similar listings so that I can actually see something is being sold there, but they said they can't share that with me. They said all that info is handled by the closing company that they forward you to when you actually get a buyer. I have my doubts that this place isn't just collecting people's fees to list their timeshare for them. What a waste of money. Now I'll have to look to Craigslist or other means of selling the timeshare myself since they've been virtually no help at all.

Original Review: Dec. 15, 2015

When they are trying to earn my business they were saying my Timeshare is worth 4-5 times what I paid and took upfront money to post my ad and earn my business. Now after 6 months when I inquire they suggest to adjust price to attract buyers and tell me that no one is interested in my Timeshare. I reduced the price to bare minimum but no activity/inquiry about my ad. I already wasted money on Timeshare, now again wasted by placing an ad for it. People, stay away from timeshares in first place if you can. If you got scammed, stay away from sellers of timeshares.

Original Review: Dec. 15, 2015

Well I was in high hopes of getting my timeshare sold and I figured why not give it try. I gave my upfront fee of 1200 and was told if it didn't get sold within a year I would be refunded back the money. Now I call and I'm told that I had a 10 day grace period when I first got the money for the refund or should have had it in writing. I'm pretty sure if I was aware of this I would have done so. Very disappointed in that because from the get go my husband said it could be a scam and that's exactly how I feel. I totally agree that once you sign contracts it's a done deal but I was never aware this is how it worked.

When asked what other units in my complex have sold for, they could not tell me and told me to look on site for recent offers (which I did and not one listing at my timeshare location). Location is Divi Resorts in Aruba and have an excellent week. Again, I reduced price 2 months ago and still nothing. Sellmytimeshare refuses to give me any credit for their charge and I was told that this is their fee to set up web page! Every single unit for sale in my timeshare community has exact same ad, same photos-only difference listed is whether it is a studio, or 1 or 2 bedroom and the week. They make all their money on getting you to buy their contract and you get nothing in return. No help or calls from company to assist you in any way once they have your money.

Original Review: Dec. 8, 2015

I listed my timeshare with this company more than a year ago (almost 2 years!). They were very high pressure and more than willing to take my money but I never heard a word from them since. My listing appears to still be on the site, but not a nibble, no follow up, nothing. I was pretty much guaranteed (although they were very careful not to use THAT word) that my timeshare would be an easy sell. So I'm still stuck with my timeshare and they have my money (WAY more money than it is worth for them to less). Lesson learned!

Purchased a timeshare and found out real quick it was a big mistake. No time to use it. I searched the Internet in hopes of some help selling it. I came across SellMyTimeshareNow.com and called them up. The representative I spoke to, ** was very knowledgeable and told me my timeshare was in high demand and emailed me a list of recent sales. Should have done more research cause now it's been months since I paid the 1,600 fee and nothing! They have never contacted me since then and I have called multiple times to lower the price. Which every time they tell me they are selling timeshares like crazy. They tell you they will sell it and if not in a year they'll list it a 2nd year free and take your 1,600 and Nothing! Now that I've did research and listened to Dave Ramsey, I wish I would've contacted timeshareexitteam.com first!

Original Review: Nov. 30, 2015

Sellmytimesharenow is not a company that you should trust. My husband and I wanted to sell our timeshare because we don't use it as much as we used to. After contacting this company 2 years ago, they continued to call and call until we were willing to hear what they had to say. They told us they could sell our timeshare easily because it is a "popular company" that our timeshare was with. After telling them no, and then lowering the price a few times, we decided to try them out. After being told by our sales woman that we could receive a refund if we are not happy. We paid them $2000 to sell 2 timeshare deeds.

** was available any time I needed her before we paid... Afterwards, she would not answer the phone. Sometimes she would reply to my emails, but not after about a month. It has now been 5 months with no updates. I received one call, recently, about a special that they had where they could "rent" our timeshare out and "make us some money" until it sells. We are not interested in that! We just want our money back!! BEWARE... DO NOT GIVE SMTN.COM YOUR MONEY! I intend to write a review every place I can so that no one else will experience what we have.

Original Review: Nov. 28, 2015

I should have done my homework on this company. The salesman ** seemed very nice and knowledgeable and assured me that my timeshare would sell soon. He was easy to reach and always returned my calls until he got my money. I did not understand why I needed to pay upfront if ** was so sure that my timeshare would sell. Three months later I have not even got an inquiry about my timeshare. NOTHING! No one from SellMyTimeshareNow has reached out to me or given me an update or anything. I have to call them. I have called and emailed ** and he has not returned my calls or emails.

Every time I call and talk to Customer Service all they can offer to me is to lower my price in hopes that my timeshare will sell. My taxes and maintenance fees are due in a month and I specifically told the sales guy ** that I did not want to have to keep paying it especially since I just paid him to sell my timeshare. He assured me that I would not have to worry about that because my timeshare would sell. Now I'm stuck. I am VERY disappointed! I do not recommend this company and I am going to tell everyone I know to STAY away from them!

Original Review: Nov. 18, 2015

Wanted to sell our timeshare because we have not used it in quite some time and thought to make some of the money on the fees back. After paying to list the timeshare in March 2015 and not hearing back from the sales consultant. I decided to contacted them and reduce the price on my original ask and I still have not gotten any inquiries, while I was told that my original ask was reasonable. Now they want to offer me a program where I would give them more money to get my name off the deed and I could walk away. I want to sell the timeshare to get some money back not pay extra. If I could get a refund for my listing fee I would and not list with them again. So disappointed, I see a lot of nice reviews but I was not one of the fortunate ones.

We contacted SellMytimeShareNow to assist in selling our deeded timeshare. We were told my the salesperson that this would be an easy sale. They guaranteed they would sell our timeshare even if the 12 month contract expired. We were required to pay $1000 for listings fees. We listed our timeshare on December 2014 and to date have yet to receive a single offer. We have lowered the price, which we were informed was already listed at an "easy sell" price. We have had no communications from this company since. Our salesperson was Desmond. We are extremely dissatisfied. It was bad experience and caution anyone that is looking into this company for assistance selling their timeshare.

Original Review: Nov. 7, 2015

I paid SellMyTimeShareNow, $1600 to sell my TimeShare which was a big mistake because after I did it I was told that an accredited company would never ask for money up front. Basically what I did was pay them to put my add on their website and then do nothing. I have contacted them and stressed my concern as professionally as possible, considering how upset I have been with their lack of services. Here I am five months later waiting and praying that it will sell. I read their reviews and they seemed to get some good ones. I thought I had done my research, but apparently not enough. I wouldn't use them if you are trying to sell. Especially because of the fact that they take money up front. If they really stood by their promise they would sell it first and then have you pay. Hopefully some good will come out of this soon and then I would certainly be happy to give them a better review.

I understand that often times these timeshares don't have the resale value we think they should have. I also understand that they do take the time to sell because the resale price is above what the market will bear.

SellMyTimeShareNOW was recommended by the Sheraton Broadway Plantation folks and they have now demonstrated that they are worthy of our trust. We just need to realize that patience is required because there is a limited market for timeshare resales. SellMyTimeShareNOW is the industry leader and has demonstrated this through the fantastic customer service they provided to me in response to my concerns.

I would recommend this company if anyone has a timeshare they want to get rid of. I would caution that all sellers be realistic in pricing their units otherwise they will be disappointed.

Original Review: Oct. 20, 2015

I contacted this company on the recommendation of my timeshare company (Sheraton Broadway Plantation) who told me they don't buy back timeshares. I paid $1,298 in December of 2014 and created the ad. I priced my timeshare based on my conversation with the saleswoman. The ad went up and then nothing. I never had a single inquiry. I lowered the price twice after consulting with a realtor and still nothing. They have been responsive in regards to changing the ad to reflect the lower price but they don't provide any statistics to show you any type of a success percentage.

I also noticed that the number of sales they list hadn't changed in more than 6 months. I am sitting here a year later with a timeshare in Myrtle Beach I don't want or need and no real prospect of getting rid of it. Their sales contract states that if it doesn't sell within the first year, they may continue listing your property at no charge on a month by month basis until the property sells. I am waiting to see if that is actually the case.

Caveat Emptor. They took my money, posted my listings, and I never heard from anyone again. Not even a nibble.

We decided this summer that we were going to sell our time share, and didn't just go with any company. We did our research and talked to many companies and thought we were making a right decision to go with the Sell My Timeshare Now company. This were great during the initial process, getting everything set up to sell. Our rep, ** was very nice and kept in contact with us regularly until we made the final decision to use this company for our sale. We made the decision in August (2015), and now it is mid October and haven't heard a single word from this company since they scammed us for our money. We have tried calling and have yet to receive a call back. Even though we have left many voice mails, they won't return our emails either. Beware of this company. They are out to scam people and run with your money.

Once my husband and I paid off our timeshare and had the deed, we thought it was going to be a breeze to sell our timeshare. However we have been scammed numerous times with other companies promising that they can sell our unit. Doing a little research we found this company and contacted them. Again, they promised that our unit was a "GEM" with all the bells and whistles and would sell VERY QUICKLY within the next 3-6 months. This was back in June 2014. I had to be the one who contacted them to see if there was any updates and maybe anything we can do to help sell our unit. I have yet, to received any phone calls, emails, postal mail from them informing us on any updates or changes.

We've had our timeshare since 2006 and used it maybe 2 times. My husband is in the US Army and hardly is home for us to take full advantage of it. We continue to lower the price but nothing has changed. No responses and were left hanging, continuing to pay these dreadful maintenance fees. I hate to think that we are suckered into another scammed company. They were so quick to ask us for money to start their services. But as in seeing any results in any of these "services" that came with selling our unit.... again, we have yet to see anything.

We contacted Sellmytimeshare to assist in selling our deeded timeshare. At the time we contacted them to research their service they told us they currently had more offers pending than timeshares listed. They guaranteed they would sell our timeshare. We were required to pay $1000 for listings fees. We listed our timeshare on December 2014 and to date have yet to receive a single offer. We have lowered the price, which we were informed was already listed at an "easy sell" price. We have had no communications from this company since. Our salesperson was **. We are extremely dissatisfied. It was bad experience and caution anyone that is looking into this company for assistance selling their timeshare.

This company promised that they could sell my timeshare. I have not heard from them since they took my money in March 2015. I need to see my timeshare at the Sheraton Broadway Plantation in SC. I called them once and they stated that they could not track it. They did not deliver on their promise.

Original Review: Oct. 8, 2015

I was contacted by them after searching for ways to sell my timeshare. The lady I spoke to told me that she could sell it fast that there was a need for my size units and I could get a good price for it. She asked why I was selling. I told her wife had passed in April. I was in need of the money for other things, and that I had tried once before and got took for with another company. I told her I couldn't afford what they wanted so she gave me a discounted rate. I was still hesitant to do it but she it won't take long to sell. So I agreed to do it. Well once I paid, got confirmation, never heard anymore. I call checking, never got the lady I spoke with and they told me it was listed but had no response.

This was in June, 1 month after I paid. I asked if there were any views, couldn't tell me, said no way to track them. I asked what do I need to do? Lower price - I did. So now it Oct, hadn't heard anything again. Called, got same thing as last time, just different person so I lowered it again - no help. I thought they were suppose to help me sell it but it's like all the others scam - get you no refund, you're just out. I would never use them again.

My initial hesitation was proved to be groundless and I would highly recommend this company to help you navigate through the complicated process of selling a timeshare and making it seem easy. Once it got to escrow I had no problems there either. Everyone involved performed professionally and made sure I understood what was needed and made sure I had copies of everything that I needed to keep for my records.

I placed Diamond Resorts points on this site under the guidance that "the Diamond Resorts are flying off the shelves and selling quickly." I told them I don't even want to sell it, I will give it away. I just can't keep paying the fees if I am not using it. Here I am, two years later and I'm practically giving it away and this company has done nothing for me. They took my $1000 and I cannot reclaim one cent of that money. Scam site. BEWARE!

Original Review: Sept. 22, 2015

This is what I paid this firm. What have they done for me? NOTHING. They talk BIG but can't deliver. I have written them off and on for over a year and basically I'm told to lower the price. DO NOT GET SIGN UP.

Original Review: Sept. 19, 2015

My husband and I purchased a timeshare at VA Beach to use to trade off for our vacations. After realizing that everywhere we wanted to trade to go never had availability through Interval, we decided to sell. We did read about scams out there. However after speaking with customer service and then showing their site and how many views they have and stating that they sell so many timeshares everyday to people all over the world, we decided to try. After a couple of months and not hearing one word from them, I called and stated that I decided to keep the timeshare and wanted a refund of some kind. I was told, "Sorry, we can't do that. All you Can do is lower the price and hope to sell it." $1500 and 4 months later, we have not had any offers. I have lowered the price. I can't believe there is not a way to track how many people have viewed your site if any. Feeling so upset with myself for trusting this company. Do not waste money on this company.

While I do, in part know that my concerns were partially my doing; I respect that they were diligent in reaching out to me to resolve my challenges. Thus, I have updated my review to 5-star.

Original Review: Sept. 15, 2015

It started out with a great explanation of what the service has to offer you. They show you that their site gets a lot of traffic and what not but, later you find out that they do not track the "visits" to your ad. The price for the offer sign up was 1798 which was high for me but, I need to sell my timeshare for financial reasons. Since signing up in May of 2015, and dropping my price by over 6,000; not one single offer came in. I thought I would do some checking on other offers for my same timeshare on their site (which I should have done first - my mistake). I discovered that there were loads of offers for the same timeshare as mine (same point values or better) for 10-15K less than what I was offering.

I wrote to them about canceling my offer and getting some type of refund and I basically got a response that says they are not legally liable as an advertising company. Well, that would about sums up my experience. Even if I get some refund; 4 months of advertising to throw up an ad and advertise @ 1795.00 is not worth it - not even close. I've written to them again and ask if they are willing to work with me; maybe even a partial refund; awaiting a response on this.

Original Review: Sept. 2, 2015

USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN DEALING WITH THIS COMPANY!!! I paid them $650 last year to sell my timeshare and I never even got one offer. I was promised a refund if they failed to sell it within the year. Now that I called to request my refund, they pulled the "Do you have it in writing?" crap! They said that even if they promised a refund that those verbal promises are never included in the Agreement Contract and they refused to tell me where besides a verbal promise I can find my refund information. This company does not have any integrity and they will not refund your money even if they tell you they will! Use extreme caution or better yet don't do business with this company.

I contacted the company in back in December 2014 to help me sell my timeshare. My assigned representative was very nice and informative * up until I agreed to pay for their services. That was the worst decision of my life. He promised me that my unit would sell instantly as it was much in demand and a great package for the price I was listing it etc. Once I signed up, I never ever got one offer or any feedback or advice from him. I brought the price down 5 times and even emailed their supervisor, but never ever heard back!!

I didn't touch my timeshare as I was ready to sell it from day one with all the extra offers it included; I have no use for it and shared this all with them from the very beginning. They were fast to charge me for their service, but I NEVER HEARD FROM THEM! No offers, no feedback, and POOR customer service. PLEASE DON'T FALL INTO THIS TRAP!!! I researched and should have went with my gut feeling which was to stay away and even have posted it on my own for sale without wasting more money on a such a fake company! STAY AWAY FROM THIS TRAP!!

Just like many you have read on this thread, my representative * lied about everything. He told me he researched my timeshare and had 2 offers ready to go. After paying the money, not one phone call. I called a few days later and they told me my timeshare was listed way too high, etc., etc. They are a scam. Stay away from these people.

I paid $1298 on 12/5/14 as ** said she could sell my Starwood timeshare by the end of last year if not by Jan 2015. I have tried to contact them several times to see why I have not been contacted or have had a response from my inquiry as to what is going on. I feel like a dummy for falling for their scam. I would like my money refunded as they have done nothing in 9 months and have not been professional about their service.

I contacted this company back in December 2014 to help me sell my timeshare. I did not fill 100% on my decision to go them so I lost contact. My assigned representative was very nice and informative her name is ** **. She harassed me repeatedly until I decided to go ahead and trust the company. That was the worst decision of my life. She promised me that my unit could sell for $15,000 etc. I signed up in March 2015, I have yet to have one offer or any feedback from her. She was blowing my phone up before I became a customer and since agreeing she has yet to call me. I emailed her and she stated she would call me and never did. No offers, no feedback, and POOR customer service. PLEASE DON'T FALL INTO THIS TRAP!!! I researched and should have went with my gut feeling which was to stay away.

I inquired with sellmytimesharenow.com about selling my timeshare at Outer Banks Beach Club II in March of 2014. I was told there would no problem selling my unit so I agreed with what the agent told me and paid the $599 and listed my unit less than other similar units they had listed on their site... I believe I listed my unit for $1599 in March 2014.

Over the last year, every couple of months I would e-mail SMTSN and lower the listed price. I have lowered the unit now down to $599 which is the same amount I paid for the ad on sellmytimesharenow.com. My unit is listed for $1350 less than another unit at OBBC II for same week and size and still no inquiries. I'm very disappointed in the service from sellmytimesharenow.com and I do not feel I have received the service I paid for. In the last 15 months I have not once received the first call with an offer for my unit... I would not recommend sellmytimesharenow.com to anyone. I believe I will sell my timeshare myself before sellmytimesharenow.com does. Not happy with this service.

SMTN sold our property in a little over two months at a price that WE set ourselves. The TCS took over at that point and handled ALL the paperwork. They even kept after the time share company to make sure they were moving along swiftly. All we had to do is sign the papers and send them to the company. The one-time fee paid for everything upfront, without ANY hidden or additional fees. I highly recommend their services to anyone trying to sell their timeshare property.

I was frustrated in the way the ads read. They constantly named a specific week (e.g., week 14), which is fine for a rental, but inappropriate for sale of a floating week unit because it made it look like a fixed week unit, narrowing the appeal. I was contacted by a number of other companies offering similar services. I found none that made me consider that I erred in listing with Sell My Timeshare Now. I originally purchased one of my units through the same company. The process requires some patience, but no one indicated that they could do it more quickly. If a family member or friend asked for advice about buying or selling, I would recommend Sell My Timeshare Now.

When I listed my Wyndham timeshare for sale, I expressed concern since I had previously transferred a large number of points to RCI. I was EXPLICITLY told that all points that I had transferred to RCI were separate, and that they would remain with me. I asked for that to be communicated via email & it was. I still have it. This did not happen.

My sale and transfer was completed maybe two weeks ago, and I'm now unable to access most all functionality within Wyndham's website, including the link over to the transferred RCI points. I called Wyndham to ask how I would access these points & they transferred me to RCI. RCI customer support told me that the only way of accessing those transferred points was via the link from Wyndham's site. Once Wyndham closes my account, they are gone....

Here is exactly how it was phrased via that initial email: "RCI and current Wyndham points, you’ll retain. The buyer will begin their ownership in 2015. Any points you have paid for and have banked with RCI will remain yours, even after the sale. The RCI membership is separate from you Wyndham ownership." I was flat out lied to, and I still have the email. I spoke with customer support at Timeshare Closing Services, sent the email to them, and all they offered was "we weren't told" and are recommending I take the issue up with Wyndham. Potential customers: STAY AWAY. It apparently doesn't even matter if you have a paper trail.

This company like all the others wanted way too much money upfront for generic services, I received NOTHING by way of receipt for payment, ad was totally wrong and customer service was non existent, getting a refund of monies paid to them WILL NOT HAPPEN SO BE FOREWARNED, they will not refund for any reason whatsoever. All of these companies are the same. Once they have your money you're screwed out of your money. Why would I say I have a 2 bedroom lockout timeshare and it's only me. Total deception within the ad, I am very dissatisfied with this company and will NEVER EVER deal with ANY TIMESHARE COMPANY AGAIN.

I am stuck with this deal until it's over, you have 10 days to cancel with this company once you agree, the terms are not given to you upfront, remember that, otherwise you lose your money. I was never told this and just found out 3 months later after disputing the charges only to find I had been misled by never getting FULL DISCLOSURE, they don't mail your receipt or contract for you to read but claim they email it and if it ends up in the junk mail too bad for you. They are very slick like snot on a doorknob and as I said I was NEVER INFORMED OF THE 10 DAY right to CANCEL and get a refund, the reps need to disclose this right away to the prospective client before anything else is said but it does not happen. This company would do well if it informed people of their rights right upfront but since they are driven by greed this does not happen.

SellMyTimeShareNow is a total ripoff!!! I did not want to pay them in advance, but I was assured that our timeshare would sell and sell quickly. Well, it didn't sell, not even when we cut the price in half. I told them that we were defrauded. I filed a claim with my credit card company and it was rejected. SellMyTimeShareNow DOES NOT try and help you at all. Now we are out money that we will never recover and worse yet, we are going to lose our timeshare because we can't afford to pay the outrageous maintenance fees since I have been out of work for over two years. It is my fault for not investigating them further. DON'T EVER USE SellMyTimeShareNow. They could care less about you.

I listed my timeshare with this company for sale after a number of discussions with the Sales rep. I was wary of the promises made as these did not exactly match the details on the company web site. Two specific promises were made: 1, that the fee covered all subsequent years if the timeshare did not sell. 2, that a full refund would be given if I sold the timeshare "by any other means for an amount higher than listed". The companies terms do not reflect this but the Sales rep ( ** ) told me that the company would honor this agreement. I sold my timeshare privately. I have been attempting to obtain a refund for 4 months now and still have not received one. I have been fobbed off and delayed and finally told I'm not eligible. If others have had this experience please post your details.

Why do people sell their timeshare? Typically because they can NO LONGER AFFORD them, so time is very critical. Feeling desperate to sell my timeshare and after numerous phone calls and follow up emails from **, I thought that this would be the way to do it! However, months later, I am feeling as if I was caught in a trap, a scam. A scam that cost me over $1,000 now. Once the charge was made, I have not had a single call from them. I have lowered the sale price twice and nothing.

I spoke with Westgate representative and they told me that "You should NEVER pay upfront to sale your timeshare, it's illegal"!!! Well, too late for that. Guess they got my money, and I am still stuck. :( All I keep remembering was the sales pitch, "Westgate is a high demand property, your timeshare could have already been sold, etc." Months later, WHY hasn't it sold??? And WHY have I not had any calls to follow-up???

I'm pretty stingy with company ratings and will hopefully over time raise the rating to a higher level but before doing so I would like to see some tangible activity on the listing. So although I am better pleased based on recent conversations I'll see how things progress from here.

Signed up for the program in September 2014 after being leery about Timeshare Resellers but was convinced Sell My Timeshare would be different. The sales agent provided the normal hype about owning timeshares in the #1 area of the country and that the selling season was "hot", instead the experience so far has been the selling season is "not." Since listing the timeshare I have received no calls, emails - nothing. If it wasn't for my continual following up, the yearly contract would come and go without any activity. I went along with the listing price as discussed with the agent and so I was led to believe the asking price was reasonable. At first we listed the property with 4,550 points whereas we learned the points being offered was in fact 6,050 and the sale price was adjusted accordingly. Very disappointed with this company.

We had heard about SellMyTimeshareNow from the Sheraton Resort. Each person we spoke with was friendly and informative. They guided us in determining a selling price. A few times, we e-mailed them with various questions, and they always responded quickly and politely. They were supportive during this process. Once we received an offer, they sent us e-mails clearly listing what information was needed from us to close the deal. Overall, they were professional, friendly and knowledgeable. We didn't feel that they were taking advantage of us. We definitely recommend them!

Sept. 2013, I spent $1600.00 listing one timeshare in Myrtle Beach with SellMyTimeshareNow. I was told that I was listing at a good price, and they even put "motivated seller" on the ad. I called back after one year of no hits, and was told I had a hit the first month but I could not be reached. That is a bold face LIE. I have the same cell phone number I have had since 1995, and I did NOT receive a call from anyone trying to buy my timeshare.

I have now dropped the price again, and STILL have had no phone calls. Aren't I eligible for a refund of some kind? I have MS and am not able to travel, and this timeshare is a burden. I do not want it. I need to sell it and I am disappointed and dissatisfied that I was led to believe this would be a reputable service to use. I agree that the phone representatives are very polite; however, that is not getting my timeshare sold, and not making my $1600.00 spent to have it sold worthwhile.

I signed up with Sell My Timeshare Now over a year ago. When I initially filled out information on their website, I received calls for about 6 months from them, several times a week, telling me the benefits of listing with them and giving me false information about their ability to move my "extremely desirable" (their words) unit that should have "no problem selling." Being that I did want to get rid of the timeshare and was unsure how, I eventually listed my timeshare with them - at the amount they suggested - for $2000.

I have not had one single inquiry on my property in the ensuing 13 months, nor a single phone call from SMTN people, when before I agreed to list with them, I couldn't get them to stop calling and was assured of their continued customer service and support upon listing with them. I have called to find out why no inquiries on my listing and they are extremely rude, telling me that I have it listed too high!!! Have since dropped the listing price to the next LOWER amount THEY recommended, and still nothing.

I WOULD NOT WISH THIS COMPANY ON AN ENEMY. I am interested in a taking part in a lawsuit against them due to their misleading and false statements about their services and ability to actually Sell a timeshare.

Regardless, he honored that original deal and sent me paperwork to confirm our agreement. I now have the ability to cancel service with this company at any point after the one-year mark. This makes me feel much better knowing that if my property never sells, I can remove the listing and receive a full refund. In the meantime, I will be sure to stay in contact with their customer care department to make sure my listing is as strong as it can be.

We listed our timeshare with this company in March 2014. The sales representative on the phone was pushy but assured me that the upfront cost of $1,000 was necessary to handle closing costs, etc. if/when they found a potential buyer. He closed the deal by explaining that if it didn't sell after one year, I would get my $1,000 back. I felt reassured knowing that I wouldn't be throwing away my money.

Almost one year later, after having lowered the price by over 50% from his recommended starting point, we have received zero inquiries. I contacted customer service to double check on the one year policy, and was told that they have no money back guarantee. I now understand why the salesperson (**) was so pushy. An unsold property is just as good as a sold property to them. Actually it is better because they don't have to pay for any of those closing costs.

Various staff members were polite, helpful and professional throughout the selling process. However, we did not anticipate the amount of time, paperwork and expenses the process would demand of us including signed affidavits from our lawyer. Perhaps some of this may have been because the transaction was international.

The only issue now left on the table is for us to complete certain papers for the IRS in order to claim some taxes related to the sale. "Sell Your Timeshare Now" treated us well and helped us to successfully sell our timeshare. Thank You!

After being able to cancel my timeshare that was for sale, the sellmytimesharenow do not want to refund me saying that in their contract you have 10 days to cancel or you have to sell through a company for the same price listed with them. All of the ways you can sell it is impossible to get. They will always have the answer not to refund you.

Original Review: Dec. 22, 2014

After spending over $3100 for two listings there has not been a single inquiry in a year. Plus, I have lowered the listing to try and be more in line with the lowest listing with zero response. These folks just want the upfront fees. Stay away from anyone who wants upfront fees. DO NOT do business with this company unless you like getting stiffed.

I would strongly urge anyone thinking of listing with Sell My Timeshare Now to proceed with great caution. I feel they are a scam. There are many other sites that offer better service and have the recommendations from their customers to prove it. I have been in dispute over the policy of SMTN for a number of months. They lack integrity. It is unfortunate that they claim to have customer service; a customer service that hides behind terms and conditions and not behind customer satisfaction!

On October 28th ** called and asked what was going on and I told him that I canceled and he said "fine good luck" and hung up. In the mean time they said that it takes 7-10 days for the money to be returned to my card and said that is because of my credit card company. I have been in contact with my credit card company and it is not them it is Sell My Timeshare now. My credit card company does have that I want to dispute the charges if they are not reversed. I have all the communication in my emails. These people are total scammers. I don't understand why it takes 7-10 for the charges to be reversed. I even told ** that I couldn't really afford this and of course he didn't care.

Sell Your Timeshare Now took my $998. Listed it with a dated photo of the unit. They told me I owed $7000 when actually I owed $19,000. When I tried to cancel within minutes, no one could be reached so I left a voice mail stating that their payoff amount was incorrect that I could not do it and to return my call. No one responded. I'm now filing a complaint with the Attorney General. It's a scam and they fight your credit card company. Buyer beware.

I was contacted by someone called ** who said timeshare resales were great and couldn't understand why it hadn't sold yet. He suggested I contact the main office and ask if I had any inquiries in regards to someone being interested in purchasing my timeshare. I did this and found there had been 0 inquiries. I attempted to contact him 2 other times and received no reply. This is a very deceitful company, I asked for my money back and they refused. Do not do business with these people.

Once they get your money they do nothing. So all they do is list your ad on their website. Their description of my property was incorrect, I called several times for them to correct it. They kept telling me that they needed "A Deed" to my timeshare. That tells you what they know which is nothing. My timeshare is a membership only, I do not own any property with them. I called Sell My Timeshare Now today to tell them what my timeshare company said to me. I asked my money to be returned. They stated that they do not give refunds. I then informed them that I would be contacting the Attorney General in both states that they have offices in. They said "The Attorney General Loves Us, and they recommend people to us." I found that very hard to believe. I hope that my comments will stop anyone else from using this company.

I may say I was shocked, having been a sales rep. How in the hell this man thought he could ever get my business acting like that! I appreciate persistence and I get busy but this was purely obnoxious and unethical business standards. Luckily, unlike most of the people on here, I was calling to price shop as I own a small (by their standards) full service management company for points owners. I HAD ALSO INQUIRED ON A FEW LISTINGS (always looking to take over points as I wholesale them to businesses in case you ever wondered how these are available on large hotel sites and vacation clubs) AND got A CALL FROM A BROKER???? Confused FSBO???

I don't need a broker. I've done thousands of closings so why? Because they get ANOTHER fee on the back end by having a cpl on staff so they can collect another fee. And in response to eBay, can I say no, no, no! They actually blocked me from getting info through eBay street. I cornered them on technicalities of sale. Many say free, up-to-date fees, etc. Fees are never right. Closing shouldn't be more than $200 ever and resort transfer $100 and never ever ever pay any maint. fees for year in which it is purchased! !!!!! Only exception is a prorated R A team or take over once you can book if they have points left or them as it on points they have left. No points is billed annually anymore (unless rare fixed week conversions). This is their way to make more money and charge another fee. Most companies who sell these require owners pay 2 years of maint. prior to listing so the owners do not see a dime! !!!!! HERE IS THE HONEST Truth FOR THOSE OF YOU OUT THERE IN A DESPERATE SITUATION:

Never, never, never, never pay up front to all your property other than a membership fee (red week 29, tuts, 5 stars - mine 5/month etc). A real estate broker who doesn't specialize in timeshare is going to be less knowledgeable than an industry veteran. If you're looking to rent your ownership, never ever give more than 20 percent or a guaranteed rate and rental guarantee (we do this). This will distinguish the real players in the industry (we are confident). Always look for a full service company to maximize it all your vacations too. You never need to try to find inventory again if you have a good one (that's right first pick every time). Those looking to resell, the brutal reality sucks!!! Depending on how points are set up the avg resale is .008/1000/100/10 points. And that is average. This will be less if your resort has assessments, or more than 5/1000/100/10 with taxes. Only way to get more is with a VIP transfer! Yes it can be done. Contact a real industry professional (Test if they can't answer the ins and outs to your benefits run!!!). This info isn't really available anywhere due to these corporate giants. Mine is in a password protected forum.

The ONLY TIME you should ever spend any substantial amount to get out of your timeshare is in cases of misrepresentation upon purchase(s). In this case, you will spend money and if you're upside-down, it's a percentage owed. These companies do exist (I know a great one blew my mind) and are specialized legal and credit services. The good news is a good one wins 99% and gets the owner out of contact free and clear with a refund on anything paid to the contract. Biggest piece of advice - be careful! I am an owner too so I get it. Make sure you check ALL claims for validity and ALWAYS ask for it in writing and highlighted. Hope this helps. I would steer clear of the big names (donate for a cause too!!!!). We stay small because we actually care and have a code of ethics. Dig deeper on searches!

My husband and I just wanted to sell our timeshare and not sure how we got SMTN...** was our salesperson and NOT ONE THING she promised has happened. Been on the market since last Dec and not one inquiry. Contacted someone three months later and told them that some of the information in the ad was wrong and they said they would change it...Maintenance Fee and Points (we went from weeks to points) we earned based on week 25 and the resort (Massanutten, VA). I wish I could find someone to purchase this nice timeshare for $16,000 with 76,500 points each year. Any valid (not a scam) suggestions? Feel really stupid.

Sell my Timeshare Now was more than willing to accept by money for listing my timeshare; however, this is all they appeared to do. They listed it, along with many others like it and that was it. Even when I lowered the price, no action whatsoever. I was able to sell the timeshare recently, but there was no mention of providing a refund of any type. This was a very expensive listing. The company itself may be a scam. Beware future customers! This is not a company I would recommend.

The problem I have with this company is there's a set price that is paid at the beginning and no guarantee it's going to sell. There is no carrot for the company to find you a buyer - they have their money - on to the next sucker. If the company is so confident it's going to sell the property, then they should give you a refund for the amount if it doesn't sell in a year. They also should have a limit as to how many timeshares from each location they will sell. And if you really wanted to suggest they are a true web-marketing company, they would be able to provide you with statistics of how many people come to the site, track how many people viewed each listing and how many offers were made on the specific listing. Also, as someone has also mentioned, the email the representatives email to state what the services they are providing directly contradicts the terms in which the website states. If you have sold your timeshare elsewhere on the internet, I would love to know where so I can get mine sold.

I contacted Sell My Timeshare Now (SMTN) on 4/6/13 about advertising 2 properties for sale. SMTN defines itself as "a For-Sale/Rent-by-Owner website timeshare advertising company". ** ** was my sales rep. **/SMTN lied and used unethical sales practices and broke the company's own Terms of Use. ** said the lowest listed ad on SMTN site by other sellers at the same properties as mine were currently listed at $6500 (was actually $1397). ** suggested to list my properties at $8000. ** said my properties would "sell quick" and that "Bluebeard's has a lot of interest". I listed each property at $7995 and paid $1848 over the phone w/ Discover Card. A link for each ad of my properties and the Terms of Use were emailed to me on 4/8/13. However, Terms of Use read "We do not appraise or provide guidance regarding the value or rental price of your Timeshare. We cannot and do not make any representations as to the likelihood of success of the ad, the period of time it will take to sell or rent your Timeshare".

I called ** on 4/12/13, 6:40pm to request refund due to misrepresentation. Left a message to call me but did not disclose reason. Call not returned. Called again on 4/13/13, 10:30am. ** answered and I informed him of my refund request. ** said he just woke up and will call me back in 45 minutes. Call not returned. I called back later (5:09pm) and the phone said unavailable and could not leave a message! Even if I was still interested in the services, I wouldn't be able to update anything because the company does not return calls. Another misrepresentation. I disputed the charges w/ Discover on 5/10/13 since I was not getting calls back (case #**). Company fought my dispute w/ Discover and I had to file for an appeal dispute w/ Discover on 6/13/13. 7/27/13, ** from SMTN called to "resolve" my issue. He told me they could change how the ad is listed but not refund any money. I expressed my misrepresentation claims and he said he would have a manager call me the next day or two. No call returned.

Coincidentally, on 7/29/13 I received an email saying: "New Timeshare Offer Or Inquiry. Dear ** **, Congratulations! Your advertisement on www.SellMyTimeshareNOW.com has generated an inquiry. One of our agents will be in touch with the interested party to verify the legitimacy of the inquiry on your behalf and help you in any way you deem necessary moving forward once a formal offer has been confirmed and submitted.

In order to protect your privacy, we do not provide your personal information to any inquiring party, as stated in our Privacy Policy. We encourage you to use discretion when giving out any personal information."

Why would an advertising company contact an interested buyer on my behalf instead of just relaying the buyer's information to me? Their Terms of Use state: "We do not screen or qualify potential buyers or renters who respond to ads." Also, my welcome email stated, "Prospective buyers who are interested in either making an offer or requesting further information will submit their inquiries and offers through our site. Any such inquiries or offers will then be presented to you (usually via email, unless you have specified otherwise). Please be sure to respond to all offers or inquiries made on your timeshare within 24-48 hours".

No further info came about the "inquiry". This indicated to me a possible FRAUDULENT claim by the company.

I received an immediate email from one of their apparently commissioned "real estate salespersons" as follows: "Please provide a valid number if you are still looking to sell your timeshare ownership. Thanks.” So, I respond again, requesting information by email, which for me (the prospect and customer!) is the preferred means of communication. I reiterated that if the terms were attractive, I would call her at the number provided.

The response was totally hostile and unexpected: "Did you purposely provide us with an invalid number? If you are not serious about wanting to sell your timeshare, I’m going to invest my time in helping people who are wanting to sell." ???? I WANTED to sell. I did sell shortly thereafter. But the refusal to provide any information outside of the context of a high-pressure sales pitch where confusing and misleading information can be doled out - has all the markings of a scam. Lousy, unprofessional, consumer unfriendly scamsters. Beware. If it smells like a bad apple, it is a bad apple folks.

My response was Thanks Genius - I did. Clearly you can see how professional this company is. DO NOT CALL THEM AND DO NOT EMAIL THEM. It will be the worst mistake you make. And I certainly would not do business with them after reading the rest of the comments.

I eventually called the customer service number and was told I had to talk a gentleman in Florida who handled all Disney rentals. I was transferred to a voicemail and left a message. Alas, no return call ever came. I waited another week or so and called another listed number. I spoke with a nice "appalled" lady, who concerningly took my info as well as rental listings to get right back to me to rectify this problem. That was 2 weeks ago. Now, not any of my multiple emails, calls, and complaints were ever returned. I will have to assume this website, SellMyTimeshareNow, is a fraud! Beware!
