I give Marriott a negative rating for taking advantage of older people
I give Marriott a negative rating for all the lies and predatory gimmicks they pulled on me and my wife. Practically everything that they’ve told us was either false or misrepresented. Unless you’re looking to be trapped into debt and letdowns avoid Marriott timeshare. Their salesmen told us buying a timeshare was an investment where we would be generating a profit! All lies. Their interest rate is 10.99% and the high maintenance fees are due even if you don’t use the timeshare, even during COVID. They don’t buy it back when you realize how lousy their timeshares are. Availability is horrible, they specifically told us we could travel to multiple places in North America, but we’re limited to Florida and South Carolina. The salesmen pressure you for hours and hours and at the end it is simply not worth it. The financing was done under my wife’s name knowing full well that she doesn’t work, and I’m retired. What does that say about Marriott’s ethics? They con folks into signing the paperwork which they rush through and don’t disclose the important financial information. How they can continue to get away with putting people in financial ruin is beyond me! They need to be investigated for their dubious business practices. Warn other, do not do business with Marriott’s timeshare division…in fact stay away from all Marriott properties if this is what they let their timeshare division get away with!
