How they operate
Normally, a Mayan Palace timeshare scam occur in the following way: Many people claim a sales person offers to have a long chat especially with American couples about how wonderful is to share a private place to stay every time you come to Mexico and give you a tour on the units that are supposed to be available for timeshare. Turns out people obtain a really different unit.
The sales person will never inform you of the 5 day period you have to cancel the purchase contract. Not to mention, they lie that the contract cannot be voided after it is signed. Which is a major typical indicator of the Mayan timeshare scam.
They also tend to persuade the client to level up in the resort membership, in case the client is not enrolled in one, the sales person will push them to become members at least.
They will ask if they own another timeshare that they no longer use and will tell them that Mayan Palace will sell it to lower the price of the current timeshare that the client is buying, but in reality they let people end up with the debt of both timeshares.
If you’ve been a victim of such a thing as a mayan palace timeshare scam, you can agree with most people that complained about the pressure they put you under.
Re-selling of timeshare scam
Even in the re-selling of properties, the mayan timeshare scams continue to be a great topic on review blogs.
The reselling fraud happens when a scammer contacts you by phone (most of the time) to claim they have someone interested in buying your timeshare at that moment. So they ask you to transfer money to cover sale expenses such as fees for the resale company or maintenance fees.
Only for you to end up stuck with the timeshare and scammed with thousands of dollars on the “fees” you paid for
Besides checking on the Mayan palace timeshare reviews, we advise owners to be wary of the following situations which may lead to fraud.
· Service offers made by a reseller, if it promises a significant return on the sale especially.
· A resale company that says the area of your property is in high demand and has an incredible number of potential buyers looking for timeshare units.
· A reseller who promises to modify or cancel the owner's contractual obligation to the complex in which the timeshare property is located.
The following tips will help you protect your investment if planning on buying a Mayan Palace timeshare:
Look up the reseller’s name on the web and check his background. Click on official sources for complaints about the person. Also Mayan palace timeshare reviews can help you on this one.
Ask about the promotion and strategies of advertising the reseller will do on the unit. Make sure you will be involved in the process and receiving reports. If they are simply publishing the unit on a resale list, it might not be worth it doing business with him.
One sign of a serious deal is a reseller who charges fees after the timeshare sale. If they ask you to pay an upfront fee, make sure you’ll getting a refund for it in the future. Always ask for the fees beforehand.
Get everything in writing. Read the contract carefully to ensure that it matches the verbal promises you have received. It should include the services that the reseller will run, as well as the fees they will have to pay and when. If the deal is not what you expected or wanted, do not sign the contract.
Always take your time to read the full documents before signing a contract and don’t let the sellers or resellers, put you under pressure, which is typical of the mayan timeshare scams as you can learn in the reviews.

Llegando al aeropuerto de Los cabos, nos ofrecieron una "promoción" de renta de auto por 2500 pesos por días, en lugar de 5000 pesos lo único que teníamos que hacer era ir a una plática en el hotel GRAND MAYAN LOS CABOS, ya que ellos nos iban a pagar la mitad de renta del auto, a los que nosotros accedimos más que nada por la "oferta". Llegamos sin saber la pesadilla que estábamos por vivir, era un desayuno buffet, después nos enseñaron todas las instalaciones, (prohiben tomar fotos por slguna extraña razon) y para finalizar nos llevaron a la sala de ventas. Ahí empezó la pesadilla, primero nos atendió un vendedor novato que no sabía ni lo que ofrecía, después llamo a otro señor el cual nos explico todas las supuestas "ventajas" que incluían en la membresia. Yo soy socia de fiesta americana y la verdad ya no quiero otra membresia porque la que tengo Noé ha servido muy bien, total que el tipo insistía en que dejara fiesta americana y me cambiara con ellos, obviamente eso no iba a pasar. Además de que sus precios son ridículamente exagerados para la porquería que te dan, después de decir que NO, el tipo de forma muy grosera nos insulto, diciendo que si no íbamos a comprar nada a que fuimos al desayuno, después llamo a su "jefe" nos corrió, literal. Gritando dijo "sáquenlos de aquí" - "no los quiero ver aquí" - "llamen a seguridad- nosotros molestos les dijimos que los ibamos a denunciar a profeco, e ibamos a llamar a la policia y burlandose dijeron "haga lo que quiera" las cosas se subieron de tono y agredieron físicamente a mi hija menor de edad empujandola bruscamente del brazo por una señora también de ventas. Nos sacaron del hotel por sus huevos. Llamamos a la policía y se hizo un escándalo, ellos nos decían que para que llamábamos a la policía, que ni iban a llegar, que no tenía caso, pero no me importo y la llamé, llegaro. En menos de 5 minutos, cuando vieron que llegaron los vendedores se escondieron, salió un tipo según gerente del lugar a ver que sucedía , le explique a los policías que habían agredido a mi hija menor de edad y eso era un delito que se castiga con cárcel. Salió una señora supuestamente jefe del hotel y nos dijo que no podíamos ingresar a detener a las personas, que ella solo se limitaba a ofrecer una disculpa y que si se quería proceder legalmente entonces solo se entendería con los policías. Después de tanto relajo, nos llevaron a una oficina, pidieron más disculpas y decidimos dejarlo ahí porque estabamos de vacaciones y ya habíamos perdido mucho tiempo. La señora les regalo un kit a mis 2 hijas y un paseo para ver aves. Nos dieron el bono de la renta del auto y nos fuimos con el enojo y coraje. No vayan a pláticas con ellos, son agresivos, groseros y culeros. No pierdan su tiempo con ellos. Aunque les ofrezcan promociones no vayan.estoy segura que lo que me paso a mi le ha pasado a más de uno. Asco de membresias y asco de vendedores, yo creo que no han comido en mucho tiempo y por es son así de agresivos.
To all of you, my wife and I went on vacations to the beautiful Cancun this past May 2014 and we were attending a Timeshare presentation, where we were convinced to buy a membership but based on lies.
Mi esposo y yo caimos en los engaños de la gente de Mayan Palace y sacaron una tarjeta de credito por 5000.00 dolares que nosotros nunca solicitamos ni se nos informo. Cuando contactamos con ellos, burlandose de nosotros, nos dijeron que ellos podian hacer lo que quicieran por tenian nuestra informacion personal. Ahora tenemos que pagar los 5 mil dolares al banco donde ellos lo pidieron.
me decian que si me arrepentia podria cancelar, y cuando quise hacerlo no pude :/ que mentirosos!!!!!!
was told I only had to pay maintenance fee for 5 years and its been 10 and im still paying for that
hace 3 años intente cancelar mi tiempo compartido y me dijeron que no se podia, lo hice claro dentro de mis cinco dias, y ahora busco cancelarlo porque no puedo pagarlo mas
Cuando quise cancelar mi tiempo compartido dentro del plazo de 5 dias, me dijeron que mi deposito no era reembolsable!!! Que estafa!!!
Ayuda!! Estoy realmente estresada ya que compré un tiempo compartido vacacionando por mi país México hace un par de meses, pero después de razonar esta compra y recibir mi primer estado de cuenta del adeudo noté que solo lo hice por impulso y novedad
