have been members of a El cid timeshare for 2 years. have never used points want out many levels of misrepresentation.We were taken advantage of by El cid and would like some help.
Compre en el Cid de Mazatlán en Verano del 2010 me dijeorn que ellos iban a alquilar mis semanas y con esos $2,500 dls se pagaría mi tiempo compartido con El cid, claro que ahora me doy cuenta que todo es mentira y no pienso pagar un solo centavo más si alguien tien euna idea de como solucionar mi problema me ayudarían mucho gracias.
Looks like we got caught in an El Cid vacations Club scam, I guess now that the trade-in of my previous timeshare and rent of next year's El Cid is all fraudulent, signed documents notwithstanding. I haven't paid my credit card bill, it's not due yet, is there any reason to believe that we can dispute the charge?
We bought a timeshare in Mazalan, Mexico from El Cid. They completely mis represented the benefits. I have tried numoureoius times to cancel and they will not get back with me.
Deseo cancelar un contrato con El cid Mazatlan, Sinaloa. lo compré en Enero 2010. pagué un enganche de 60 mil pesos.Y ya no quiero seguir con el contrato por que tienen muy mala reputación. ya me estan cobrando la mensualidad de mantenimiento y no he utilizado ninguna semana, ni tampoco la semana de vacaciones de regalo.
Timeshare was purchased from El Cid on Feb. 20, 2011 for 35,000.00. Already paid over 15,000,00 on my mastercard.They supposedly have a buyer for my Velas Vallarta membership . So far they have had me pay transfer fees of $6270.00 USD to a bank in Mexico and now have come up with the need for me to pay $8,545.00 USD in an IVA tax. Are these legitimate or am I being scammed?
Need help getting a timeshare contract cancelled from El Cid purchased in October 2005 and paid only one year of maintainance fees. Now a collection company has notified me of a balance due. Can I get this debt cleared and the contract cancelled? thanks.
I recently purchased a time share at El cid in cozumel and was promised that they would purchase my old timeshare for $30k. I have credit card debt of $27,800 and owe 15,00 more.They promised an electronic transfer when they recieved my swift code and copy of my other contract .I have problems contacting them . I am a 75 yr old widow with a fixed income and I think I am being scammed.
Bought a timeshare last year in Mazatlan, el cid, came back to visit this year and realized it was a bad decision. Sale was lots of double talk and promises that weren't fulfilled. What can I do? Can I just stop paying the financing? Can I recover any portion of my money?
I am one of many victims of timeshare scam in Cancun. I have a paid in full time share in cancun, purchased with the promise they would sell my Mayan Palace weeks.I cannot afford the maintenance fees any longer since I retired and would like to get out of the timeshare.
