At Mexican Timeshare Solutions, we believe our role is to inform consumers about potential timeshare scams, in order to prevent financial and emotional distress, and assist people who have already been scammed to cancel their fraudulent timeshare contracts.
We pride ourselves on our honest work in this industry, which is riddled with timeshare scams, and as a guarantee, we do not charge clients any money until we have successfully cancelled the client’s timeshare contract.
Many new timeshare cancellations companies have appeared online recently, claiming to assist clients who have become victims of timeshare scams to cancel their timeshare contracts and recover their money from timeshare fraud.
We have done some research on this timeshare cancellation lawyer to determine whether they are more of the same in this fraudulent industry.
These new timeshare cancellation companies claim that they can help to provide timeshare relief, cancel or divorce you from your timeshare, or even donate the timeshare to a worthy cause.
Many of the timeshare cancellation companies have very vague statements about how their fees are charged.
Some claim to have a money-back-guarantee, which implies that an upfront fee is required.
As we have seen in the timeshare industry, there are many timeshare scams for rentals and resale companies that charge upfront fees and later go out of business.
We encourage consumers to be very careful and questioning when contracting timeshare fraud assistance, and as a cardinal rule, never pay upfront fees for services to rent, sell or cancel your timeshare.
Another concerning factor is the misleading information about the memberships that the timeshare cancellations services claim to have with large associations such as the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and the American Resort Development Association (ARDA).
When you are hiring timeshare cancellation services, it is important to have honest representation so that you don’t become a victim of a timeshare scam for the second time.
Some of the firms make claims that they are accredited members of the BBB; however, they are not listed on their website.
Regardless of whether the company is a timeshare scam it is an unethical business practice to make false claims to be a member of an accredited association.
If you are thinking about hiring one of these companies, check with the associations that they list on their website to ensure that they are valid claims and not just another timeshare scam.
We have also checked into the age of the domains for these websites, as many of them seemed to appear online at the same time.
Most of the new timeshare cancellation companies claim to have years of experience in the industry; however, they have just started these online businesses in recent months, or in some cases, a couple of years.
Although the length of time they have been in business does not necessarily determine their success, we hope that clients are not being mislead into believing that a business has more experience than they do in reality.
The following is a list of some of the new timeshare cancellation companies that we have researched:
