Will make this short and sweet, I hope.
Bought a timeshre in 2006, havent been able to use it as husband works away. We were shown a resort we were told we could use as we didnt like the one we were buying into. So.... we try and use it two years later, and find out that they want us to pay $410 a  night per person ontop of the $10,000USD we have paid to stay anywhere. They dispute they showed us this resort, they dispute they didnt tell us we had to pay more once they admitted we were shown the resort. And so the saga goes on. We have been told we can have 2 free weeks there, which will come to the equivalent of the price we paid originally. Why would we want to do that, it doesnt solve the problem of having to pay more if we want a holiday there. Now we wait as we want out of this whole sorry mess. It leaves a very bad taste in the mouth. Husband is retiring this month and we thought we would be able to use our RCI membership without doubt as we bought into the higher levels of timeshare. Tried to find a place to go before February 2009, we have been told there is nothing on our side of the world. So we cant use the Royal Bali Club we cant use RCI. Well we can if we forever pay more, what was the point of paying into something we thought we would have for life and no more expense apart from air travel.
So people out there, beware Royal Bali Club and RCI. The directors and President must be laughing all the way to the bank.

    I trained for the job at Royal Bali for 2 weeks and decided to quit before even being given any clients. Felt like selling ice to eskimos! I understand holiday ownership is not for everyone (in fact, not for most), but selling timeshares is one hell of a job - felt I can't sell something I don't believe in! It takes some amazing sales skills which I obviously didn't have.

    They are cheaters and liers. They are also illegal owners of Time Share.

    We also got conned into buying timeshare at Royal Goan Beach Club at Benaulim in March 2007.  We got the usual hard sell, a young English girl who told us if we signed up this would be her first sale, and she was only paid commission.  She had fallen off a scooter and was bruised and sore (sympathy factor) Initially we resisted but since it was our first day in Goa, we succumbed to the hype and signed up.  On returning to Australia we tried to cancel on the basis of a deteriorating medical condition but got a letter from them advising that we had signed under Indian law and there was no cooling off period in India and we had to pay in full by June.  We wrote to Foreign Affairs but did not get a reply.  Our maintenance fee started at US$386 and it has gone up every year so this year it's US$659.  We have never been back to Goa or to any of the Royal Resorts and would be happy to have more information.
