I Went Undercover to a Timeshare | Here's What to Expect
Vložit
- čas přidán 13. 05. 2024
- This was my experience attending a timeshare meeting at the Hilton Grand Vacation in Las Vegas. It actually wasn't as bad or as scary as I first thought. If I had to describe the experience I would split it up into five crucial stages; sign in, presentation, meeting, supervisor, and collecting your gift. Overall the experience was just a big conference meeting for one of the days during your stay and it honestly, at least to me, didn't take up that much time. So personally, in my opinion, I would take advantage of these timeshares stay offers to get reduced hotel costs and free gifts; such as, hotel points.

I went to a presentation, wasted 2 hours of my vacation but I received a $100 gift card and my hotel was paid for 7 days. The look on their faces when I said I’m not interested was hilarious
Absolutely a total waste, but I think those gifts and stay do make it worth it, imo. Seems like you got a better package than me though! I still had to paid $150 for 3 nights. You've done good 👍
Except for those who have a hard time saying "no". That's not me, but I know some ppl like that.
@@SewHappy061 Oh for sure, those people should totally not go to the timeshare meeting; those salespeople can be rough.
loser..
I love when they get angry when they realize it’s just not going to happen.
Ha! Right!! Like what were they expecting?
We had one that got super upset. Next day took away any deal that they offered before the meeting.
Timeshare presentations are like a mortal kombat tower challenge and it keeps getting harder the higher you go, if you keep saying no you will win fatality style.
Ha! That's a good way to put it 🤣
Love it! Just finished a 3 hour timeshare presentation at Pueblo Bonito...my wife and I played good cop bad cop. We ended up getting $400 in benefits by way of a party boat and dinner cruise. It was fun but yeah...you have to be on your guard!
I went to a presentation once not knowing that it was for timeshare sales. Later when I realized, I did a quick research on google on what to expect and how to act. I just couldnt hold my laugh because everything you said in this video is 100% spot on. Lol there were 2 different "higher up" people who came to talk to me as I kept saying no and I just burst out in laughter as they keep lowering the prices. Lol the agent even said "why are you laughing?" 😂 Overall, it was a good learning experience, but I wouldnt do it again. Thank god I already knew about not signing up for a Timeshare. And yes, their faces were priceless.
You got this one right. They try to pretend that they are your best friend, so that you will feel bad telling them NO.
Not true
@freek1318 oh but it is absolutely true. People confuse personality and character allowing financial vultures to ruin lives and create nightmare for naive buyers.
I am a timeshare salesman and started last year. I have never once sold anything like that in never once pressured anyone. I always was meaningful when i spoke with someone and i genuinely care for people in general and believe everyone deserves respect. So i am always kind. If they want it, i help them. If they dont. I dont sit here and bully them. I tell them from the beginning that no matter what they decided to do today. That the most important thing to me is for them just to have a good time with me today. The reason i say that is because when they say no at the end, it does not bother me. I believe if it was meant to be it will be. I refuse to bully anyone into doing somthin they dont feel comfortable doing. So i am not like most salesman. There for you can not persecute me and say i am like the rest and that i am a vulture who takes advantage of people and if you do then you are just prejudice for thinking that way and you dont have a kind heart which is fine. But i only am commenting to try and help people understand that not all people in sales are like that. I hope that you can understand that.
@@freek1318 My guess is that those timeshare operations (why do they still exist?) that are associated with famous brands, like Hilton, Marriott, etc. do have to protect the brand name somewhat. But, I am also guessing that those who are purely timeshare operations may use hard sell tactics. Timeshares are an insane nonsense. The inclusion of "in perpetuity" in their contracts makes them financially super dangerous. Their customer service, I hear from videos, are nothing more than buying more time share contracts. I find it difficult how can anyone still get fooled to get into these contracts. I read that cars depreciation 10% when driven off the lot, RV's depreciation 30%, but timeshare contracts the moment after signing depreciate 100%.. You cannot even give them away or in many cases cancel, per these articles. An acquaintance of mine had a timeshare salesmen as peresonal friend, and the salesman told my work buddy that he felt like timeshare salespeople have no souls, but the money is good if you can live with what you are doing to people. This is what I heard and read about these things. Personally, I cannot imagine what niche of population for whom these contracts would be of an advantage, except for salespeople, and these organizations.
Great review Calby! Sounds like I should not even bother with these meetings, but thanks for the DL on them. Always wondered what they were like!
Haha I love that y'all made that experience into a positive one. Personally, I just hate having to deal with stuff like that so I'll use my points instead for my bookings, but for balling on a budget, attending these meetings (and NOT buying anything) could be a decent strategy! Nice video Calby 👊🏼
Bro that was Joey Fatone
That part had my DYING! "He's like an actor? Or something..."
Some people are too young to actually know who he is!!!
@@jamesburke2110I’m too young for the Beetles but I still know who they all are. 😂
Timeshares with RCI is worth it. You just have to do your hw before going to a presentation. In the long run, as long as you use your timeshare and exchange it and love to travel, owning a timeshare is well worth it. I highly recommend being a timeshare owner. You'll see the world at a fraction of the price!
Haha nothing the Timeshare agents said was going to convince me, we held STRONG! Haha there were sooo many Timeshare employees there in Stage 1. Great breakdown!
that 'celebrity' was Joey Fatone from NSYNC, you're definitely went to hs in the 2010s lol
That's right on the money! haha
Promo to stay at the Hilton Grand Vacations Club for 3 nights for a total of $129!!… and all I have to do, is sit in this 2HR+ presentation?? Aight bet!! I’ll come fully prepared and equipped with my weed edibles/water/snacks/popcorn on deck to enjoy the show 😎
I would love to talk to you. Because I truly believe in them
I got the same deal AND get the $129 back. I went to one back in 2022. I kept telling them NOOOOO but they finally gave up 😂😂😂
how did you get the 129 back? 😂@@shawtyblackatl
@@ReallyDru it was the deal they sent 2 weeks ago so i bought it. They sent another one thats $99 but i like FREEEEE better
Never been and based on this I can still say there is absolutely no way I would buy anything
I would never buy a timeshare! It's such a scam. I know someone that has one and I couldn't believe that every time they go back to that place, they have to attend another meeting to try and scam them to upgrade! Unbelievable.
Ohhh now that's something I've never heard of; didn't realize even though you bought a timeshare you need to continue attending meetings. I was thinking it was a one and done situation, but that's terrible.
I have an every other year timeshare never been forced to upgrade 😊
that's good. I don't think these ppl were 'forced' but rather strongly encouraged to upgrade. Another strong-arm sales tactic. @@jonathangatto
@@jonathangatto Oh? I'm just curious why did you buy a timeshare?
Thought it was a good idea to get a nice place for 9k and get to use it every year with RCI. I was nice back in 2011 when there was not AirBNB etc. But now I do not feel it is worth it anymore. I just might rent it out to make the maintenance fees back. I tried to give it back lets see if they take it back
@@CalbyNg
"most workplaces only give you two weeks vacation" - jawdrop moment for me. In my country legal minimum is 4, 5 is standard and nicer jobs ofer 6 as a benefit. It is a small wonder there isn't more suicides in US
Nice Video! I have one upcoming in January for Hilton in Vegas as well. I wanted to compare since I just did an IHG timesharebpresentation last month and it appears similar to Hilton in all the lame ways....
Thanks! Oooo nice, I actually enjoyed the Vegas area more than I first thought, but have fun at the timeshare, haha. Oh I didn't even think about IHG offering a timeshare; I just know of Marriott's and Hyatt's. I'll have to check out IHG, thanks for that!
I have a video coming out next week on the IHG presentation. But basically, IHG’s offer is targeted, so you may not know. But 70k IHG pts is nice. @@CalbyNg
@@w0ngwaytravels We are doing an IHG presentation in Gatlinburg, TN in six days; at Westgate Resort. Anything to offer up for me?
@@regalnut86 If you don't have any intent to buy one, u should be fine. Their prices are much higher than other hotel brands (Choice); or just tell me u stay in hotels for free because u use pts; u will be out in a minutes.
Another exit strategy for getting smoothly through the presentation and getting your "reward" for wasted time is to say quickly YES but ask for the contract so you can get advice from your lawyer. And yes, there will be 2-4 persons trying to convince you, but your argument will and should always be: I am not getting into a deal without getting proper consultations with my lawyer, let alone trust you just on your word and wire the money. They realised that I was stubborn as hell, and there was 0% chance of getting me signed anything. The last person was a bit more aggressive, but I raised my tone to the point which the f*ck are you to tell me what I can and what I can't do. He saw that the conversation escalated and everyone could hear it, and just wanted to get rid of me. Singed the paper and went to the reception to pick up the "rewards". Overall, say YES and ask for the contract. It might be easier for you to get out without listening to all their bullshits.
I got into a timeshare presentation for Hilton this past weekend in Orlando and it was very annoying because they told me it would be 2 hrs but it ended up being more than 4 (and I missed the first few hrs of EDC... 😒), they put a hispanic guy specifically to talk to me because my name sounds definitely hispanic, I showed myself very enthusiastic all the time and everything went to the teeth, just exactly as you're describing, step by step: the personal story (the guy told me that his mom had cancer and all the money he earned in this job was sent to her), the "bonding", the supposed benefits, etc., but he started the presentation saying something like: "what if I told you, paying 150 dollars a month during 10 years you will be able to stay in any hilton hotel for the rest of your life?" I knew it was too good to be truth, then he tried to gaslight me telling me that I would be spending less money with the points than what I'm currently spending with my yearly travels, but what really killed it, obviously, were the maintenance fees, that's like the main curse in the tineshare, I would be paying 1500 for the rest of my life, and I asked him exactly this and his answer was "yes, until you sell it to someone else", I think he knew he f*cked up! 😅 He couldn't find a way to disguise the answer because at first he was trying to sell the fees as a good thing "we can keep the hotels in pristine condition for other owners, we're like a family looking for each other, it's just like when you have a car, you own it but you can give it maintenence once a year so it works properly", I told him I had to think about it and during that time I googled as fast as I could everything related to timeshares, then I saw that the packages (Hilton Grand Vacations) were rated with 1 to 1.5 stars everywhere and everyone talked ill about it, everyone saying "DO NOT BUY IT" and Facebook groups against it, I knew I had to say no and I got the determination to do it, when the guy came back i didn't hesitate, then they sent another lady to try to convince me to buy another package, she tried to "appeal" to me speaking in Spanish (because she supposedly had a mexican husband) but her Spanish was so poor and so broken I couldn't understand a thing of what she said, and I was kinda spacing out thinking of how evil timeshares were and how they were ruining thousands of people's lives, how much of a scam they were and I simply ended up telling her "I think I'll pass on this one" and she asked me why but I just told her again: "yea, I'll pass... 😅", she ended up very angry and frustrated and told me: "ok, go to the front desk to pick your prize for attending the presentation".
I know I dodged a huge bullet here and have been mulling this over the weekend, then after some research I found that these things are inherited as well and these companies are trying to destroy in court anyone trying to get people out of their timeshares, this is probably the biggest kind of scam backed up by the law that I have ever seen in my life, I wish I could tell everyone thinking about signing how terrible this is.
Very well stated and spot on! 🎯
Thanks!
I wish I could have gone with you guys at the Vegas meet. I'm an expert in this field and specialize in the fundamental financial aspects of the timeshare game. They're selling an inferior product based on psychological manipulation. Pointing out how they dilute their value by giving away all these dirt-cheap rooms was wise. The point-and-mile programs we all love, devalue their product as well. Looking at current resale listings gives you an idea of what your exit strategy will be like 7-8 years later when 50% of timeshare owners want out. The bottom line is there is very little demand for their product, but they spend millions on shady sales techniques to trick people into buying.
Biggest scam on the planet! It’s like Hotel California, you check in but you can never leave!😮
Love this reference 😂😂😂
Bingo !
Isnt it a bigger scam for you to take there money and be disrespectful to the people just trying to do there job then leave? While that person makes no money because it based on commission. So whats the big scam? Who leaves with money?
@@freek1318 That is why I don't go to Time Share presentations. Saleman looks at potential buyers as Suckers. Lowly educated salesman is there to make quick & easy money.
😂😂😂Exactly….had a presentation yesterday. It was 4 hours!!! I left with my wife
First… 👀
Sounds like they use the boiler room approach. Now I understand why people fall for these timeshares. Good to know!
My celebrity was Usher - Lol. i said no, and they keep sending me more extravagant offers and im like are you SURE you want to let me go to mexico for a week so i can tell you NO again???
Ohhh mann, I think you had a better celebrity imo. Crazy these celebrities even agree to be a part of the timeshare scheme. Ha! Nice, squeeze them!!
I have a timeshare presentation in a couple days (purely for the points) but I also work for naval aviation so I get to stay at all these resorts for free, plus I make per diem off of it lol can’t wait to see them struggle on explaining how their deal is better than what I got.
How did it go?

How did it go?
Is it only for couples? Or can you travel 4 ( family group)? It did not say in the accomodations section.
You should be able to travel as a group; however, it’s only required for the person booking the room and your spouse if you’re legally married; if not they aren’t required to go if they don’t want to.
you will OWN nothing...haha man these are a great deal to get discounted stays during busy weekends. Worth the time and I used it as an entertainment opportunity
Hahaha for sure; I feel like most people know timeshares are a scam but keep falling for them. At the very least, like you said, they are great to take advantage of 😼
Ha, looking at the commentors I can tell you're in the credit card game.
We sold ourselves on a Hilton Timeshare 2 years ago and regret it. We were already thinking about buying, and jumped into resale before our presentation package. $100 for a timeshare sounded good on the surface, until you realize you're not saving enough money, and you're exposed to Florida insurance and infrastructure legislation. We ended up trading it back for a $2,200 contract in Las Vegas, which is costing us $650 per year less. Fees in Florida are going up 9.5% next year, in Las Vegas, 3.75%. In a nutshell, we're going to be staying in Waikiki every other year, at half the price of the hotels, let alone beach resorts.
2:15 did you track that Hilton logo with the mole on your face?
"not as bad as you think" proceeds to describe how they are exactly as bad as i think
TOP TIP:
Next time when dealing with the time share pushers - just stand up and yell out "THIS PLACE will be PERFECT as my HIDE OUT! Who here will join me as my GOON ARMY?!? MUUAHH AHH HAAA!"
They will let you go immediately.

I would love to go to one of these and just act absolutely insane. Randomly screaming and laughing, asking questions that make no sense (THE MEAT!!! WHERE'S THE MEAT!?!?!?), standing up doing random (but choreographed) dances with my boyfriend, loudly clapping in their faces when they talk, etc.
@@Hello-tj2cp Mmmmm... Let's not do foolish things that reduces our dignity. Let us make a strong stand for justice.... then .... we dip!
I aspire to allocate the majority of my time to travel, given the extensive commitment I presently devote to interpersonal engagements. Regrettably, I must decline further business transactions. Wishing you a most enjoyable journey.
The presentation is to set you up for the salesperson. It is not a joke. It tells you why you should get it. Then, salespeople say how much. Was this your first time in the presentaion?
Timeshare presentations are 💩💩💩 The tactics they use are something else. They gotta know that 99% of peeps aren't interested. Thanks for the info + video!
If you don't travel why do you bother on going to one of those? I assume just like a car insurance, it only works if you drive(?)
Going to a timeshare or going to a timeshare meeting? I went to a timeshare meeting because they gave me reduced rates for the hotel, along with Hilton points for a vacation I was already going to take.
my wife and i go to these whenever we get a chance ......love winding them up......
One time I attended to this timesheet meeting presentation and lady told me that Disneyland in Orlando cost $10K but with timeshare it will only be annual fee. I was like 10K? Then I took my phone and I showed her AirBNB lol.
😂😂😂 and there are some really cool looking Airbnb out there
Love the passion of the salesman that “lost” a good friend that never got to travel. Their pitches are always similar. If you’re looking, buy one 2nd online. People are giving them away
100% correct on never buying a timeshare direct and only ever using the secondary online market for free. They have no value and literally offer no savings on vacations. I promise.
Our company only exists because of these owners who realize their mistakes and wants out. It's even difficult for owners looking for help to get out because many companys even scam you on the way out. The only reason we are successful is because we dont charge anything until after you're out and with no high marks ups or waiting periods. Even then, it's hard to hear through the noise because of all these other fly by night businesses and corporations.
Oh man, I have heard of the scam of people trying to get out of timeshares and paying for the fees upfront; I think John Oliver covered it, pretty crazy.
Just curious what does your company do? Is it like a legal law firm way out? Or do you all just call the timeshare and annoy them, haha. And, if you're willing to, share the name of your business in case others want to reach out.
@@CalbyNg completely legal. It just depends on your situation.
If the timeshare is paid off, meaning no mortgage, and it just has the annual maintenance fees, then we transfer it. We have several companies we partner with who will accept the transfer of ownership as long as we pay all the associated costs.
If the timeshare does have an active mortgage, a loan on it, then we need to cancel out the ownership contract+mortgage. This is where you need a lawyer. We use of one of the two firms we partner with and the fact that your consumer rights have been violated at the time of sale (which they always are) to get the contract cancelled out.
We do this work with no money upfront, so no payment until the client is satisfied, and we guarantee our work for life.
@@CalbyNg if you want to check us out more, just google "Clarity Transfers"
You never even pointed out the biggest negative on timeshares......the ever-rising annual "maintenance" fees. For some of them, they skyrocket. Some people have commented that theirs went from $300 to over $2,000. And you have agreed to pay them NO MATTER how high they go. The contract will not specify any limit. Don't get suckered into a timesahare.
How long was the whole presentation?
For us, it was 2 hours because every new presentation happened every 2 hours. However if you show any interest; they would be willing to spend more time with you. I saw a couple who spent 6 hours talking to the sales person.
I have a question they have a minimum income amount but do I have to show them proof of income ?
I didn’t have to show them; and I’ve read stories of people lying about their income just to be approved to attend and in those stories, the timeshare people didn’t check. Of course these are our experiences.
Any spot where lots of salespeople are present is a huge red flag. Run away!
For sure! It was an insane amount it was like a salespeople convention, haha
So when you travel in timeshare you dont get joy and memories from it in safe environments? Some reps suck i admit, but some are honest and do not pressure. To me its worth doing. Maintence fee. If there was none are you ok with a dirty run down place in trade for no maintenance fee and you can clean it yourself then?
Oh for sure, not all of the timeshare salespeople are bad people. Even the one we got wasn't that bad, she did leave us alone after a while; however, she did call us slaves sooooo..... Definitely not as bad as it could have been.
Oh for sure, I also came to that conclusion in the video, timeshare meetings are worth doing as long as you know yourself.
Oh, are you talking about purchasing a timeshare? If so I believe credit card points are a better solution.
How long was the total presentation
It was about two hours; it started 11:15AM and ended at 1:00PM; however, I noticed if you show any interest they'll keep you for much longer. There were people in our group who were still with the timeshare salespeople when we came back to the hotel at 4PM.
I honestly had a great time there at the Timeshare, got to get free water and snacks if I wanted, person trying to sell me while I tell them my woes and at the end, get 100k points.
Honestly was an easy experience and you showcased the stages very well, I forgot about that 3rd person haha. He was in and out within 2 minutes 😂.
“LIES” haha.
This was great Calby!
I just booked one in Orlando for 4 day's 3 nights for 223 dollars for attending 2hr presentation. I will be 6 months pregnant and were going for our honeymoon to Disney. Any advice?
Which company is the timeshare through?
Oh, that's not a bad deal for that area, nice! Also congratz on the pregnancy and the honeymoon vacation!!
As for advice, I would make sure to tell them the least amount as possible about you personally; so they can't use against you. They are willing to use any means, just try to not let it get to you and always say no. Personally, I would use the excuse that you don't have money to put down because you spent it all for the honeymoon and you'll be using the rest to get ready to take care of the baby.
Usually saying two things in a timeshare will get them off your back; saying you have no vacation time at work and saying you don't have the money to spare. Just be cautious, they will definitely use your pregnancy against you; prbly try to guilt trip you and say something like, "Don't you want your children/child to have a secure investment" or something like that.
@@RoastBeefSandwich Oh that's a good point; I heard Orlando timeshares can be inparticular scummy.
@@CalbyNgI booked the same deal through Hilton grand vacations! Only because I want to take my daughter to DisneyWorld!
I love timeshare salespitch deals. Depends on the salesperson you get once I got a salesperson that was originally from India 5 minutes and he knew I wasn't going to buy anything so we spent half an hour talking about the best places in India to vacation, I still have notes from that chat.
Also sometimes MVC has online salespitch deals, attend an online salespitch and get 50k Bonvoy points, super easy.
Oh wow that guy seems cool; just curious, did they have to keep you there a certain amount of time, instead of letting you go?
I’ve seen those MVC deals! Glad you were able to take advantage of them! I signed up for one but they never got back up with me unfortunately 🥲
@@CalbyNg yes it seems like the 30 minutes minimum amount of time that he could tell his boss, I am not going to buy. With MVC I have always called the 800 number to signup.
Ah, those are good to know 👍 For the MVC I tried signing up using the online form; I guess that doesn’t work
Ask how long for free gifts? Then pull out timer, set it, and say "go"
I’m gonna have to go to a meeting soon cause I got a discounted vacation . Spent $200 for 5 nights which would of costed $800 . They can afford to do this since if they get you to buy a time share you’ll be spendings thousands over time .
Didn't they show you the property?
Surprisingly no, we kept asking them to clarify the timeshare program and I think they just wanted to get rid of us at this point. But I saw most of everyone else was forced to take a tour.
My Hilton timeshare meeting is on the 13 of this month . I’ll keep you posted on how it goes.
With Marriott It was super easy . But it lasted 3 hours ..I acted interested the whole time then at the end said I was going to buy a house and I didn’t want it to affect the first time homebuyer program .
And they said it wouldn’t
And I told them “ well I don’t want to take any chances just in case “
And they offered to bring me back for the same price .
5 nights stay in Hawaii for 800 and a couple of Marriott points .
I do remember being super hungry at the end
That’s not a bad offer Fanta!
I go to them for fun sometimes....Tells you all you need to know about my life.
On one occasion I told them I was interested and I wanted all the bells, all the whistles, and anything else they could think of I was agreeable to. In the end, I told them I was going to purchase it through the family trust so I would need to take the contract and have the trustee look it over and I would come back with the singed paperwork after she approved it. The poor man looked so sad. After all the goofy high fives he had given me each time he added another perk over the last hour and a half and now he knew it was over. BUT!!!!! I got my free cruise and life continues to be great!!!!
Basically, I do it for sport. In most cases they're dishonest clowns and deserve to have their time wasted.
So my deal was $765 for 6 nights in Honolulu and 15k HA Miles. I still have not gotten my miles yet . In the first stage I raised my hand in the group and said you know those points cost $7 a point. The lady that was trying to sell me was bragging about her employee rates $80 night at Waldorf Astoria that costs $1000. They lie constantly they made me sit for 2hrs plus . I got no email or anything after just sign and go I think miles take longer . Lastly the manager said ohh that’s all they offered you we got people getting hundreds of thousands of Hilton points that sucks I was like that is all I got offered.
Oh not bad for a stay at Honolulu. Interesting, not sure if we would have the exact same experience but after your meeting did they have you sign a sheet saying you attended the timeshare meeting? Because that was the only way we got our Hilton points. If so, or even if not so, I would give them a call and ask them to honor the gift.
Right! Those timeshare people lie all the time, we countered by saying the Hilton Aspire credit card is actually better and they told us they have the Hilton Aspire card but didn't know about any of the benefits. Eh, HA Miles seem better than Hilton points, especially when each of them are worth half a cent, haha.
@@CalbyNg so I finally got my 15k ha miles I value them at 1 cent a point it’s equal to getting 60k miles and the Hilton Waikiki beach was really nice decent vacation definitely 4 star hotel . I’m thinking about doing Marriott or blue grass it looks like I have to wait a year before I can do HGV again.
2:49 I believe that’s Joey something from N Sync
Seems like a good way to travel in the US! :D
Cheap hotel stay and free points, for sure! Just need to have a strong will
🙄I don’t even want the aggravation to listen. Last time I was in one, the nasty saleswoman accused me of wanting to get something for free I just wanted to know if there was any villas in a particular resort. 😡walked out, and forget about it.
The time share cancellation industry is real folks!!!
For sure, just make sure the timeshare exit company isn’t a scam; because those exist too.
Lol umm hes famous thats joey from *NSYNC…
Ugh how exhausting.
Oh for sure
I love timeshare
Oh? What has been your experience?
Honestly even for you it was confusing 😂
Who are you???😂
Haha 😂
Good video except the audio with your partner is completely unintelligible.
😂 Joey from *NSYNC
I wonder what happens if you just stare at them and don’t answer any of their questions lol just stone faced and let them talk
Ha! Honestly they might start insulting you very personally, they can be very mean. Otherwise, if you're okay with that they might just sit there with you. I believe one of my friends, who went to a different timeshare than me, said their salesperson gave up but had to keep them there a certain amount of time due to the rules.
What if you start crying though?
@@TasteLikeSushi ha!
Imagine having a Time Share Wife with 25 other Husbands.

Ha! That's actually a great summary of timeshares
Wow you didn’t know who Joey Fatone was. Never heard of the largest boy band of the 90s/2000s or who Justin Timberlake. 😂😂😂
Ha! I was a baby during that time 🥺 I
Know Justin Timberlake though, haha
It is not suitable for you because you are an employee. Anyone who is not an employee can work from all over the world. while on vacation
Yep, that’s what I told the salesperson. Wouldn’t let me go though
Just say “I am absolutely no interested at all” and get the $ and leave
That's not true. What makes you think the presenter doesn't get a commission!!! Stop speaking inaccurate info
How about try this, talk to some owners who actually LIKE their timeshare.
Sure, that’ll be interesting. Would you like to be interviewed?
We’ve had our Hilton timeshare for about 20 years and love it. It’s really hard to go back to a regular hotel room especially when traveling with children. Having separate bedrooms, full kitchen, and a washer and dryer just spoiled me.
@@ecebear3 Oh interesting, do you ever have any problems booking a room? I heard that's a big complaint about timeshares.
What I still don’t understand is WHY ON EARTH YOU would go if you have no interest at all ? Dude 80.00 a night ? I would be afraid to turn off the lights seriously ? Would you stand in line for FREE HAMBURGERS if you hate and don’t eat red meat ? This is crazy that you people don’t value your time more than that on vacation! Would never ever waste my time on going if I wasn’t interested ! Sounds like a bunch of freeloaders on here!
Timeshare is a total scam.
That does seem to be the consensus 👍
Funny how you think the Salesperson would be the liars, but it's the guests who lie their asses off.
Just don’t go there
It was just interesting
The best way to survive a timeshare is not to go to a timeshare.
Ha! You ain’t wrong
Looks like this video created by timeshare
I’m literally taking you through what to expect when going to a timeshare meeting and gaining free points and a cheap hotel stay. Why would timeshares want this video to come out?
Because it’s a perfect example of how mediocre and ignorant an “intelligent” person can be. Yes it’s a sales presentation, but you already knew this. So why are you surprised when the sales agent tries to sell you something?
haha timeshare is a scam
Seems to be the case, haha
I want some of those time shares deals! A cheap stay and lots of points sounds interesting! Thanks for the detailed information Calby and keep up the great work!🫵
80 $ is a joke! That's a motel and your a mooch waiting 3 hours of your vacation for a gift card. Wow
Huh? I didn’t get a gift card; I got 100k Hilton points which covered my hotel in Dillon, CO, that would have costed me $800 for the entire stay. Maybe it’s just me, but I think $800 for 2 hours of time was worth it.
get a life
Ah, we found a timeshare salesperson 💸
lmao
anything else?
Yall are losers for going to them and wasting their time
And yours
They offered us a $150 total; 3 night stay, plus 100k Hilton points. We would be losers for not seeing what's it all about. And it was only 2 hours.
