Tuesday 14th July 2015 10:52 Mrs M - Moness Country Club

I now want to divest mysef of my timeshare because of recent illness and the difficulties experienced trying to get rid of the responsibility of either allowing the membership to elapse or in finding a suitable use for it

Monday 29th June 2015 05:22 Mr C - Moness Country Club

Over 20 years RCI have given us excellent exchanges but the rising costs are giving concerns - we are both now in retirement and no longer have a salaried income.

Holiday now have to be carefully considered, we are now crusing at selected times as a change from self catering.

Our health at the moment is good but this may change and therefore our future ability to travel will be limited

Monday 29th June 2015 05:17 Mr M and Mrs S - Moness Country Club

At the sales presentation in perpetuity was not explained to us at all - it was intimated that to leave this to our family was a good thing, an asset for their future.

The maintenance costs are getting higher every year

Friday 26th June 2015 08:35 Mr & Mrs D - Moness Country Club

We were very happy with our purchase originally, a lovely location and the fees were reasonable. However the fees are now prohibiitive.

There are deals on Groupon that offer accomodation for less than 50% of our annual fees. We were told that the purchase was an asset and it would increase in value and we have now found it to be worthless. Originally we had no problems exchanging into resorts of equal status but now it is very diffilcult to find exchanges. The resort is now no longer exclusive to timeshare owners

Monday 18th May 2015 07:25 Mr F - Moness Country Club

The timeshare has not lived up to it's original expectations:

Maintenance costs
Ability to exchange
Rebuild costs
Ability to cease the contract
Lack of explanation about the 'in perpetuity' aspect.

Friday 24th April 2015 09:11 Mr & Mrs C - Next Generation & Moness Country Club

We didn't realise what in perpetuity meant, the children are not interested, and we are getting too old to travel. We have difficulty in getting the choice of exchange destination requested. We changed to points as assured this would allow more opportunity to get your chosen exchange destinations. But this is not the case, the fact RCI very obviously pass on details to other associated companies and you are bombarded with phone calls you do not want.

10th February 2015 08:07 - Mr George C, Aberdeenshire - Moness Country Club & RCI

"Could seldom book chosen resort and often located some distance away from main resort. Find the modified site not very helpful due to poor retention of information inserted and having to start all over again as a new search."

1st January 2015 14:01 - Mrs Pam S, West Midlands - RCI / Moness

"I have 2 weeks bought in perpetuity in 2007 and have been trying to hand them back since 2011, but Moness will not discuss it with me. I cannot afford it - Please advise."

27th December 2014 18:50 - Mr Steven D, Midlothian - Moness

"My 82 year old father has a timeshare property for 1 week at Moness, Aberfeldy, scotland & has held for 20 years plus - He wants to give it up as it it now costs more than £600 per year in maintenance fees which he cannot now afford, but has been told that he will have to come up with £2000 just to get out of the contract & give up the week - Can you help?"

4th December 2014 13:54 - Mrs Catherine K, Midlothian - Moness & RCI

"It is becoming difficult to book holidays in Britain and I have seen that though Moness took payments from us to get the place up to standard the standard has fallen from 5 star to 4 star and some of the properties have been taken out of the system presumably returned to the person who built them.What to do?"

26th November 2014 19:04 - Mrs Mary M, Clackmannanshire - Moness & RCI

"Just want to surrender points and leave Moness"

16th August 2014 19:47 - Mrs Elizabeth D - RCI / Moness

"We would like to dispose of our week at Moness. What can we do?"

2nd August 2014 08:07 - Mrs Jan F - Moness Resort, Aberfeldy, Scotland

"Father had health issues and didn't need stress of payment so signed timeshare to me. Now paying ever increasing fees for unit we will never use. Have used it twice in past 12 years only although swapped it three times through RCI. All other fees paid but lost on holidays we couldn't afford to take. Need to cancel contract"

28th July 2014 14:35 - Mrs Elaine F, Midlothian - Moness Resort, Aberfeldy, Scotland

"Please can you help me get rid of my week 52 (New Year) Timeshare?

25th June 2014 10:47 - Ms E, Aberdeenshire - Moness

"Had this timeshare since 1997 wish to release - but having issues."

7th May 2014 17:54 - Mr & Mrs S - RCI / Moness Country Club, Aberfeldy, Scotland

"We are now retired and concerned with burdening our family with unwanted and unaffordable maintenance fees. Resort no longer offers buy-back scheme."

10th April 2014 20:38 - Mrs Lesley G, West Lothian - RCI / Moness Country Club

"Can't afford this as we are retiring."

2nd April 2014 15:46 - Mrs Amanda H, Perthshire - RCI / Moness Resort

"I've tried to sell this burden and I've tried to trade it in when I traded up in another timeshare, but I'm still stuck with it. I need to get shot of it. Resort is Moness Scotland, Can you help?"

18th March 2014 16:16 - Mr Tom T, Greater Manchester - Moness Resort, Perthshire Scotland

"I spoke to the Resort Manager in February when we were at Moness. He said that we could not return our Timeshare as it was ours in perpetuity. What I disagree with there were many people there who had booked a cheap holiday through Groupon and they were not owners or on an exchange visit. This means that they are paying a lot less than we do in maintenance. We are not interested in getting any money back just getting rid of our timeshare"

16th March 2014 19:46 - Mr Brian C - Moness Resort

"Have been trying to offload our timeshare for years & annual costs keep increasing. I have even paid money to a company who said they could sell it but this proved to be worthless. I would be pleased to hear your views"

About Timeshare Release

During the Timeshare sales boom of the 80s & 90s, potential buyers were lured in by the promise of affordable exotic holidays, flexible exchange programmes and the impression that Timeshare would be a valuable "investment".

In an industry with little or no regulation, high pressure sales tactics were rife and contract smallprint was often glossed over and explained away by sharp salespeople.

Many Timeshare buyers were therefore unaware that they were actually making significant, long term financial commitments on behalf of themselves and their families.

To find out how you can escape the Timeshare Trap please complete the short Timeshare Release Wizard now.

The Timeshare Trap

The timeshare trap

For many Timeshare owners, annual maintenance fees were barely considered token amounts in the early "honeymoon period" of ownership.

However, year-on-year increases imposed by the resorts over time now mean that the maintenance fees have risen to become substantial sums.

Owners are also facing the prospect of ongoing yearly fee increases and realising that they (and their families) are often committed to long term contracts for generations to come.

Please try our Future Fees Calculator to estimate your liabilities over the term of your Timeshare contract, based on an annual increase of 7.5%.

If you're concerned about rising fees and how to escape the Timeshare Trap, please contact us today.

Recent comments from RCI Timeshare owners who have come to us for help with contract cancellation:

Mr Steve R, Middlesex - RCI/Hollywood Mirage

“We 'swapped ‘another place in Tenerife for this in order to move to the points system. Since then, getting exchanges to desirable resorts proves almost impossible, irrespective of in-season or off-season.”

Mrs Rachael B, Yorkshire - RCI Europe

“I purchased my timeshare in 1999 and have been a timeshare member ever since. More often than not, I have not be able to go where I wanted and have ended up giving a few weeks to Friends, etc to book somewhere they wanted in order not to lose the weeks. I have then stayed in a hotel!! I am desperately trying to get rid of the timeshare and am now paying Timeshare Shop in Manchester to get rid of it for me.”
