They want more money!!!!

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.

As it appears to be signed up in Bali law, bit of a Grey area of which we will be seeing our lawyer Monday 9 August 2010
thanks sheree
I've bought this membership on Oct 2012 and pay monthly installment untill now (2014). We never use this for holiday. Then I realized that they ask too much for yearly property and management fee that make our calculation about this membership's cost are beyond. We want to end this payment agreement. Do you have any suggestion how to end up all this mess I've made and is there any chance that we can have our money back? please help us.
thank you....

problems began to arise, I several times I wanted to take a vacation, they always said the place was packed, even though I already pay nearly $ 1,000 to the club bali jakarta.
later, this story grew with the arrival of bills months, whereas I never enjoy a vacation like they promised. And with a heavy heart, I come out with money that had taken them.
Now, i understand that you feel ripped off, but call the customer service that is there available for you and dont be scared to ask questions, thats their job, its to answer your questions and help you with your ownership.
