Don't buy it!
I received an email that I am eligible to receive $250 resort certificate if I arrive the resort by November 30, 2024 and call to reserve dates by August 7, 2024. So I called to reserve the date and was told to pick up this certificate when I check-in. However when I checked-in, Marriott Vacation Club told me they had never heard of $250 resort certificate and refused to honor although I showed them the email. Later I declined to purchase the Marriott Vacation Club points. It is unfair to people who lock in this lifetime contract and Marriot can increase the yearly fees to pass the inflation to people and points owner cannot exit the contract. The sales said this can be passed to the children as an asset. This is not an asset, but a huge liability. The sales refused to show me the contract. This is a red flag. They want you to sign without reading the contract. They also wanted me to finance through them with 10% interest rate. They said I would save a bunch of money in next 20 years. I showed the sales to use my corporate codes to book on Marriott website. It was cheaper than the points system. It was funny.
