Spectacle without sincerity. That’s one way to recognize a phony roadside revival.
And maybe that’s not unlike a timeshare presentation. After reading the many complaints brought by disillusioned timeshare owners, you’ll begin to wonder if Bluegreen sales agents seem to think they are in the belief business.
They want you to believe that if you buy a Bluegreen timeshare, you are investing in a property where you will be able to vacation in beautiful accommodations wherever you want, whenever you want.
But if you’re a Bluegreen customer, you soon find out it’s hard to keep the faith.
That’s certainly what the Castilles describe when they shared their Bluegreen experience with the Florida Attorney General. In fact, their account is so clear they hardly need any help from us to reinforce just how insincere Bluegreen is.
“Our specific resort is Harbour Lights and Bluegreen misled and lied to us about this timeshare.”
“We were falsely led to believe that our timeshare was real estate that we could sell and rent out for profit. This was not true, and we were not informed of this before signing the contract.”
“Additionally, we were promised that we could use the timeshare anywhere and anytime we wanted, which also turned out to be untrue.”
Hype that turns out false promises.
“We were not informed of the recission period and were rushed through the signing of the contract documents.”
No foundation of trust.
“The sales representatives employed tag team and high -pressure sales tactics, and even though we said no multiple times, they kept lowering the price to continue to persuade us”.
“We eventually agreed to purchase the timeshare points, which we were told would allow us to stay at extravagant locations. However, we later discovered that the points we purchased were not even sufficient for a stay at a Motel 6.”
“We were supposed to attend a new owner orientation to learn how to use our timeshare properly. However, this was merely a front to try and sell us more points.”
Unrelenting drama, misdirection and lies.
“We were taken advantage of, and we believe that Bluegreen Vacations has acted in bad faith.”
To which we can only say, “Amen.”
It would be difficult to have faith in anything Bluegreen says knowing what the Castilles have suffered through.
Let’s ask Bluegreen president and CEO Alan Levan how Bluegreen can redeem itself by emailing him at alan.levan@bluegreenvacations.com.
We can also reach out to Jason Gamel, the President and CEO of the American Resort Development Association (ARDA), which represents the timeshare industry in Washington, DC. Let’s email him at jgamel@arda.org to see if he’s concerned that one of his most important members has lost their way.
