They want more money!!!!
Complaint

Country: Australia
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.

starting from US$ 16,000 , they finally give us only US$ 6,000,
THey asked us to write how much we want to join, we ask for $ 4,000, and they told $ 6,000
peeeuuuyyyyy......!!!! can you imagine how many people out there pay for $ 15,000 ???
What did your parents do about this? We are interested to know.
Please get in touch with us if there is anyone else out there who has been a victim of the Royal Resort group, and I am sure there are many as we have been told many untruths as well in their sales pitch.
Kind regards
thankyou
polly
We think to stop this, but how, anyone can help...In Indonesia, maybe none care...not like in Australia...
if someone from the royal karma team...just shut up...you scumbag....One day will be revealed...and we the victims will do anything to ELIMINATE YOU!!
cheers
My partner and I did the same thing also a couple of days ago. We feel sick in the stomach. can you please keep us updated with your progress?
The only link we could find to Australia is the paperwork for financing which states a business under Ezidebit Pty Ltd ACN 096902813.
Cindy How did you go getting out of this. my husband and me have been in this for years. can I ask you how you got out of this Thankyou
thanks
We are in the same boat however our management fees are about 2,700 AUD after USD conversion.
We tried for 6 years to get the accommodation they promised us and ended up threatening legal action before they amazingly managed to get us a booking in the hotel they showed us on the day of the hard sell!
We have another 19 years membership in Bali and our fees just keep going up!
I can't seem to see anywhere that there is an option out...
