time sharing blues

Time sharing concept for business. Just beware how you are approached. The sales agents will pitch it until you pay for it. Promises of many things but in the end empty cans only. Money gone a taste of sour in the mouth. Crying serves no purpose. Loss of income and adventures. Some companies rent hotel rooms to sell be it 5 star hotels or 3 star hotels. Name it they sell it to you. The news coverage by NST told how many people were short changed in buying time sharing business. Every purchaser has a 10 days cooling off period but how many really get their monies back? It is so difficult to get your refund. (Same with our IRB for excess tax payments. Write letters, personal visits many times and yet promises here and there and no refund!) You can still see the sales agents promoting this time sharing concept in the supermarkets. Printed beautiful brochures and enticing sales pitches to entice the would be customers. I say watch out and study it in your leisure time until you are satisfied with the promotions and the company. Every company will say it is belonging to an Association and so it is concrete evidence it is not a fly by night operations. On the safe side dont let go of your money yet. Study the company. It helps you to make a firm decision then. Even some hotel groups have joined in the band wagon to promote their own resorts on time sharing basis. At least these hotel groups you can find them easily....but the rest I think you should walk with caution.

Malaysia......has many interesting tourist spots why go for time sharing?
