I was contacted by phone by a David N. that told me not to list my timeshare with any other company that it had already been sold. Of course I was thrilled becuase I have had it listed for a long time. Well then he goes on to tell me that he needed $1388.54 to do a title and deed search and that by law they had to do a search so I agreed and he said I would...

Premier Timeshare Solutions Failure to sell timeshare when fees were paid and no action

In 2008 approximately May we received a phone call to sell our timeshare in Kissimee Fl. From Premier Timeshare Solutions Phone # 561-65e -4280 toll free [protected]. Agent Kenny Williams from Premier said that he had a buyer for our time share.(That wais the only time we spoke to Kenny Williams). All the imformation that he was suppling to us seemed ligitament. We even contacted the website to see if the company exists and all the phone numbers were active. We submitted a application to sell and sent our fee of $1398.00 to do the necessary paperwork to sell our unit. Title search, etc.

My husband and I kept in contact for a few months to check on status of the sell, Premier continued to tell us that the buyer had sent in his 20% down payment, and were waiting for financing to complete the process, and then the finance company required another 10% down from the buyer, which Premier said to give them 2 weeks wait for the title search to be completed. They continued to tell us to give them 2 weeks to complete the sale and then after a 3mth period. The buyer did not send the extra 10% down. Premier said to wait another 2 weeks to follow up. At the end of that 2 weeks I called and Premier said the "buyer dropped off the face of the earth". Premier said they had another buyer and they were cash customers, and it would take only a couple of weeks to complete, and the funds would be dispersed. Waiting another 2 weeks and nothing (surprise). I continues to call everyday and no one would answer the phones. I call today and find out that the phones have been disconnected (NO SURPRISE). We moved from Nevada to Colorado we lost our home in Nevada and the money we were going to receive for the sale was to pay our bills.

This sounds to me like Jennifer Kirk, owner of CREATIVE TIMESHARE SOLUTIONS. She (Jennifer) has been arrested for defreauding 1000's of victims for MILLIONS OF DOLLARES $$$$ by the State of Florida, convicted on fraud charges and sentenced to an 18 probationary period. She will now violate her probationary terms for opening NEW TIMESHARE RESALE ROOMS. The stipulation of her probation is that she is prohibited to enter into any business dealing with TELEMARKETTING SALES. Soon to follow, Jennifer Kirk's PROBATION OFFICER'S NAME AND TELEPHONE CONTACT INFORMATION. STAY POSTED.

National Recovery Taskforce has been incorporated for one month-the real owner Anthony Pasarro, incarcerated for many years mafia related crimes, was part owner of Premier Timeshares. How ironic that he has a link to their fraud case when he worked one on one with Kristina and Jose and other timeshare scams. He has one office that charges clients and another one that offers them refunds. The Att Gen and Feds are onto him though dont worry, but dont hesitate to call for yourself and let them know.
They have no legal team, that is a lie and only license they hold is one to steal...check with Dept of Agriculture on their license...they dont have one!

concerned about the pubic giving their money away? far from the truth! an expert in the timeshare scam field? correct! due to the fact that i am still currently work for one of these scam companies and stealing money from the innocent!

Charlotte Dina Bailey, Charlotte Indina Bailey, Charlotte Indina Sweat Bailey, Indina Sweat, Dina Sweat…you get the picture right. Well after a little public records search in Palm Beach County Florida where she actually called me from I found out that this woman…if you would call her that, has a long history of domestic violence, drug abuse, prostitution, child neglect, and theft. Keep in mind this is all public information. Dating all the way back to 1983 where she caught a felony drug case that got her a small bit of county jail time and what they called drug offender probation. Well old girl didn’t learn her lesson, and violated that probation and did a little bit more jail time. Then on to the domestic violence. There were two reports of that and in both cases the court determined that she had lied. Now we have some of my favorite…more drug charges. Precious little Charlotte got pulled over for careless driving, and apparently the officer thought something was wrong and decided to search her car. Well low and behold there was enough drugs in that care to make it a felony traffic issue. Charlotte found some sad sack that would post bail and then she never showed up in court. A warrant was issued and she was later picked up on a solicitation charge…that’s right folks, prostitution. She was hauled in and she stayed at the county jail for 8 months waiting to see a judge. After 10 months they gave her time served. Hey folks it doesn’t stop there. She managed to straighten up for a bit and only received a suspended license charge. Now after that, some idiot thought that she may have some redeeming qualities and decided to knock her up, and she wasn’t a spring chicken. With an infant child named Leona, Charlotte seemed to be preoccupied and didn’t have time to get caught, until her daughter was a few months old, then the Department of Children and Family Services came in and took that little baby away. Why? Why would anyone do that? Well because Charlotte has a fondness for living in filth, not feeding or bathing the child and using a variety of drugs in her presence. Not just her but the poor schmuck Jeffery E. Hopp. They are both using drugs in front of a little baby. Charlotte’s daughter is a ward of the state, and the woman is in her 40’s. Good grief. The best part of it is that if you read in each court case, she says she was indigent, couldn’t afford a lawyer, and I am thinking to myself…what did you do with the 2, 000.00 that I gave you…oh wait the police report says that you bought crack cocaine with it….hmmm well I will sum it up: she is a filthy, manipulative, money, grubbing, lying, gutter [censored]. The state of florida is working on getting my money back. And they have her information. I take comfort in knowing that Karma is a ### and this woman’s problems are far from over.

Premier Timeshare Solutions failure to return upfront money

I was called in Feb., '09, inquiring about selling my timeshare, located in Las Vegas, Nevada, and promised to sell the timeshare within 120 days. It's now Dec., '09, and nothing has happened. I was led along about a buyer being ready and given a number of stories over the course of 25+ calls; I was finally informed the buyer had backed out so I sent a registered letter to Premier demanding my money be credited to my credit card or check sent. That was the first part of this December and I have yet to hear anything. I have since found a number of other people in similar situations. I'm trying to spread the word, put pressure on the company and try to warn others before they too fall for the scam.

Premier Timeshare Solutions Unable to get monies back

I received a call from Ryan Kelly an employee of Premier Timeshare Solutions on July 7, 2009 asking me if I was interested in selling my timeshare in Branson, Mo. Naturally, I was. I then told him I was not going to pay up front to sell it. He then told me he had a buyer from Ontario, Canada by the name of Konecke. That they were very anxious to buy the timeshare and also wanted the weeks of unused timeshare. He determined that the purchase price would start at $22, 600 plus $1, 388.54 for the vacation week that had accrued.

He informed me that the sale was imment and that he would mail me the contract overnight, I was to sign it and fax it to them immediately in order that the sale could be completed as quickly as possible.

I signed the contract, faxed to them and they got the money per my credit card.

Mr. Kelly gave me two phone numbers and encouraged me to call if I had concerns. On Sept 3, 2009 I called the numbers. The first number was no longer taking calls. The second number transferred me to another number and then I was told by the system that it was full. I did finally get through on the first number and was requested to leave a message. Which I did. I tried again several times with the same results.

I sent Premier and my credit card company a letter on September 8, 2009 requesting a full refund of charges due because of failure to be able to contact the company. I to this date have not received a response from Premier.

On September 16, 2009 I received a letter from the credit card company stating they would investigate the inquiry. On September 18, 2009 Bank of America (credit card) wanted a letter detailing the dispute, dates involved, copies of the contract and charge statement.

On October 1, 2009 I sent a letter to my credit card bank and was requested to send a letter explaining the circumstance. On October 7, 2009 the credit card company my charge account was credited with $1, 946.54 and was informed that the dispute was considered resolved. On Nov 23, 2009 the credit card company placed the charge back on my account stating there was nothing they could do unless Premier okayed the refund.

However on Nov. 5, 2009 a representative from Premier named Doug called me again with the same sales pitch. I told him they already received monies from me. He told me they had refunded my fees and when I told him no and that I wasn't positive that they had refunded the monies, he hung up on me.

I have tried even as recently as today to call the company and get no response and no return calls.

Thank you for any assistance

Premier Timeshare Solutions NEW SCAM

Premier Timeshare Solutions has been taken over by a new company the full name my wife didn't get but she thinks they told her it was Commerical Property Partners or something. The finance manager told her that Premier was taken over by this company and that we needed to pay an additional fee to have the sale completed. We then started doing our research on this company that we had paid back in April and found astonishing new on them...

Premier Timeshare Solutions – An Inside Look, Beware!
Written by: Traver

Timeshare Rentals wants to keep readers up to date on the latest news in the timeshare industry which includes timeshare scams and how other companies try to implement these scams to separate timeshare owners from their money. Recently we found a report out of West Palm Beach by Shannon Cake of Contact 5, a local television station in the area. I would encourage you to read the entire article entitled, “Contact 5 Investigates: Premier Timeshare Solutions”. This story was written/filmed using an employee of the company as an inside informant, giving the reader a glimpse into the inner operations of a company trying to perform a timeshare scam.

Basically the company operates by contacting timeshare owners claiming they have found a buyer for their property, all the owner needs to do is pay an upfront fee and the sale will be completed over the next 30-45 days and the fee will be returned to the owner when the transaction is complete. To further cement the owner’s belief that the timeshare transaction will go through the sales man states the buyer has already deposited 20% of the total amount into an escrow account. According the informant Premier Timeshare purchases lists containing timeshare owner information which is used to contact the owner and make the company seem legit. The actual revenue figures these types of companies can generate are astonishing, according the informant “The company itself is doing a million dollars every week-and-a-half, anywhere from 40 to 50 thousand on the day shift they did 60 thousand on the night shift that I’ve seen.” This equates to literally hundreds of people being scammed every week, not to mention the informant told Contact 5 there never was a buyer interested in the property it was all a fabrication of the truth. Perhaps the most disturbing quote from the interview with the inside informant was regarding the managements’ view about the company practices:

“Buyers don’t exist, there is no buyer, ” said the tipster. “We were told this during the pitch, we’re never going to sell this unit, we’re never going to list these units, these people are going to give you their money, the next person that calls they’re going to give them their money and they’re never going to get their money back. If they’re stupid enough to give it we’re going to take it, and you know why we’re going to sleep good at night is because we’re making a whole lot of money.”

“They told us what we’re doing, we’re never going to sell these timeshares, they will never sell, ” added the tipster. “We don’t have buyers for these timeshares, but we say whatever we’ve got to say to get the credit card out of their pocket and if any of us have consciences we should stay home and not come back to work the next day.”

Regular readers of our blog have been informed of these types of scams for quite some time and know exactly what to look for and how keep themselves from being defrauded, however it appears this is still a major problem in the timeshare industry and does not show signs of slowing anytime soon. If you have been contacted by this company or another company with similar promises we recommend ceasing all communication with the company. If you have been defrauded or even contacted by a company like this we would encourage you to post the information here so no one else is victimized.

Premier Timeshare Solutions How to get your money back

How to get your money back ...BE RELENTLESS...I too was out of $1388.54. After 4 mths. of unkept promises from this company I finally requested my money back on August 31st only for them to tell me it was not possible. I was heated, I immediately called the BBB in Florida [protected]. I was then directed to call the Florida Attorney General office, which directed meto the Florida Dept. of Agricaulture and Consumer Services 1-800-HELP-FLAor www.800helpfla.com. It was here that I filed a formal complaint. This complaint was handled by the Bureau of Mediation and Enforcement, was assigned a case number and a case manager. I had to call a few times to get my case number and to find out who the case manager was. I also called the Federal trade Commission and filed a complaint 1-877-FTC-HELP. Within 30 days, I received a letter from the Florida dept. of mediation stating that a resolution had been reached. Premier timeshare signed by Jose Goyos agreed to refund $1388.54 to my credit card. I checked with my credit card company and the refund was there as of 9/28/09. It was time consuming, but in the end, I won. I recommend that everyone who has been "got" by this company do the same.

Make sure that you have all your notes, with specific dates of when you spoke with a representative, (names are helpful) what information you received etc. Everytime I spoke with someone I documented it, so when I had to complete my complaint form I was able to be very thorough. Just a point of information to share for the future. The state of Florida passed a law in July 09 that timeshare, marketing or advertising company can NOT accept payment for service up front. They can only receive payment after the service has been rendered. So if you get any more calls from businesses operating in Florida asking for money up front...BEWARE..ITS A SCAM!
Section 721.20(6), Florida Statutes, prohibits the collection of any advance fee for the listing of any timeshare estate or timeshare license, and requires that any seller of a timeshare plan be a licensed real estate broker, broker associate or sales associate as defined in Section 475.01, Florida Statutes.
I wish you all the best on reclaiming what was STOLEN from you.

We also got our money back by being relentless. It took us almost 6 weeks but we got it. I told them and proved to them that I knew they were illegal after speaking with the FL dept. of agriculture and consumer services. I then said we were going to tape our conversations with them. Got a call the next day from a manager saying our check was in the mail. Got it, cashed it and it was a good check. Don't give up! Don't let them win! Oh, and btw, the FL attorney general's office is now formally investigating this company. Please call them and tell them of your experience.

Premier Timeshare Solutions Unauthorized charge

We received a packet from this company via Fed Ex. It contained an explanation of their services and two "Owner Information Forms" which we were to complete and return to them. They also charged one of our credit cards for approximately $1800. We never gave them our credit card information, so of course, we never authorized Premier Timeshare Solutions to charge us. We did not request the service and do not intend to deal with this company, which is just another scam being conducted out of Florida. We also intend to file a complaint against them with the state of Florida. Stay as far away from this company as you can.

Premier Timeshare Solutions Scam/Fraud

In February of this year, Premier Timeshare Solutions contacted me about selling or renting my timeshare week in Orlando, Florida. I was willing to rent, and was told that I could get $2, 900.00 for the week. I was told that their fee was $588.84, which was put on my credit card, and was sent a contract. I was asked to sign and return as soon as possible because a client was looking to vacation in Florida in April, and the paperwork needed to be processed as soon as possible. Never heard another word from Premier. I have called them several times since then. Always an excuse as to why the "client" in my previous conversation with them "backed out." Mostly, the reason I got was that the prospective renter no longer wanted to go to Florida. (Come on, this is Micky Mouse we're talking about) Anyway, still no rental. I suspected long ago that this was a scam. Tried contacting the BBB in that area, but they never contacted me back. Now, I'm in debt for the $588.84.

I came home today to see that I have several messages; however, no messages, just hangups from Premier. Caller ID only showed the number, not the name of the company, which alarms me. They called again and my son answered and told them I wasnt interested. They immediately called back, I answered and didnt give the guy to talk and told him I wasnt interested and hung up. He called back again. I answered and explained to him that I had been down this road a few times. His comment was I was going to be a tough nut to crack. I then talked to Dan Grossberg and listened to the spill and again explained my past history. I was assured they didnt work that way, buyers had deposited $5000 and just waiting for the right timeshare in Hawaii. Of course, he wanted my credit card number. I explained that I needed the weekend to think about it and call me Monday. Thank God, I went with my gut feeling. I looked up info for timeshare selling with the better business bureau and got some valuable tips. Also, I did more research and look what I found? I now have my answer and look forward to his phone call on Monday. He will definitely get a RESOUNDING NO AND DONT CALL BACK! I am so grateful that I found this info on all the complaints.

Premier Timeshare Solutions Purchase Offer

Called w/"firm offer to buy my timeshare; buyer 20% non-refundable deposit; needed $1, 300 to cover title search; FL Div of Consumer Protection to call me w/in 1 hr to verify it all. Put $1300 on credit card, and THEN did some research. FL Division of Consumer Protection has 24 complaints from these folks this year alone; confirmed they never do outbound calls. Tried to call Premier back, only got voice mail, with no response. I cancelled the credit card payment. Hours later got call from guy identifying himself as from the FL state cons. protection div. When I called him on it, he said he was from the company's Consumer Protection Division. First offered to give me his name and license, but then said, "Hold just a minute while I take another call. Waited over 10 minutes, and he never came back on. WHAT A SCAM. Do your due diligence first!

called 9-24-09 said they had a buyer right now for our timeshare and if we would send them $1867.54 for title search and other paper work we would get that back plus our money for the timeshare in 30 days. that came and went and called in Oct 09 and they gave us another date to expect a check that came and went we are now sure we have been scamed and want our money back as we put it on our credit card and are paying interest on it. They are very hard to get on the phone and when they anwser the phone they don't say Premier timeshare Solutions its Hello or something corp.that doesn't sound right to me either. Something needs to be done so the ones they have scamed can get there money back and noone else will be scamed by them. Can you help me and the others they have scamed out of there hard earned money.

I received a phone call from Preier Timeshare Solutions stating they had a buyer for my timeshare. I was thrilled as I have had it listed for a long time. They said the offer was $13, 000 to close on 12-3-09. They then stated they would send out the contract via FedEx and I would receive it in a couple of days. They then proceeded to state they needed my credit card info for the deed and title search fee, but it would not be charged until I sent in the signed contract. (Ishould have known better) They also told me that this fee would be refunded fully at closing.
When I received the contract, it said nothing about a buyer and nothing about refunds. I have since filed a complaint disputing the charge with my credit card company and I have made numerous attempts to contact Premier. I have faxed a cancellation to them and left messages. This is a scam. I wish I would have checked further before falling into their trap. The Better Business bureau gives them an f. I have filed a complaint with them too.

In desperate times people do desperate things, like believing someone has a buyer for your timeshare that you have on the market for sale. The promises and guarantees sound great, too good to be true, but dang, they sure sound honest.

Then comes the Advanced Fee, which is usually followed by the hardcore truth that you've been scammed.

The Premier Timeshare Solutions scam is an Advance Fee Fraud, and it falls under the 'bait and switch' category. It runs like this:

"Hello, My name is Roger and I have a party that wants to buy your timeshare. They have put earnest money down, which you will receive should they back out of the deal, $3000. All we need from you to proceed with this sale is a deposit of $1400 to cover the initial title search fees and processing. You will have your money in 30-45 days, a whopping $15, 580, plus $3500 for your two current unused weeks. This is a solid deal. We HAVE a buyer for your property. We advertise mostly in the UK, where the dollar is so weak people here are buying up American timeshares. Yours is one we have ready for sale."

Of course the salesman sounds very honest, says all the right things, knows everything about your timeshare unit: where, what, annual or odd of even year.

The rub comes after you pay the deposit and you receive the sales contract the salesman/woman said they would send. But . . . it is not a sales contract, it is an Advertisement contract. You have the seven days to back out, which is almost gone, yet you call and complain, "This isn't what you said you'd send" Hence the bait, "Sales contract" and then the switch "Advertisement" contract. The salesman placates you with, "Oh, that just give us your permission to represent you and get things rolling."

You bite your lip, you hope the story is true, "I will get paid. I will get paid, " you say as you toss and turn at night during worried sleep. You just put your life on the line, borrowed the money from the wrong people, and have to wait.

You call your "Roger" for some assurance all is well. He was so personable, he'll set you at rest. Dang, he never answers. No one ever answers that can help you. Most of the time the "Mail box is full." If you leave a message, no one ever returns the call as the message says they will. You sit, you wait, and wait and wait, until finally . . . it strikes you: Premier Timeshare Solutions is a working, USA based, Advanced Fee Fraud.

This business practice is as criminal as any Nigerian 419 Fraud that we all receive in our emails. Now, it is understandable that we can't go to Nigeria to thwart the ongoing success of the silly 419-fraud scams. But here in the USA, we have powers, right? Law enforcement is our friend.

And the credit card company you paid the deposit with is your friend and protects you from such fraud, right?

Stay tuned, I'm taking this investigation a step further, all the way to hands-on with the scam-perpetrators, the law and the courts.

I'm thinking class action law suit against PTS, so if you want in, let me know. Maybe we can get the law to freeze the accounts and get some money back, and the perps toss in the pokie.

The bottom line at this moment is: They took my money, switched the bait of a sale of my timeshare to the fraud of listing it for sale. That's just wrong. With this sort of business coming to us out of the blue, who needs politicians?

This is all to say, Pay no attention to Premier Timeshare Solutions are they are running a criminally based business out of the UK and targeting US timeshare owners with their fraudulent practice.

After receiving the paper work on the contracts in the mail, I had questions about the agreement. I placed several calls to their Customer service line, and did not recieve any call backs. I believe that this company is either a scam, or at best has very poor customer service. Thank goodness I tried to get customer service before I signed this agreement. I would not recomend Premier Timeshare Solutions if you are looking for good customer
service. I also emailed them to have them call me back, no return calls. They charged my credit card, I disputed the credit card charges.

I recieved a call from a lady named Jennifer about the sale of my timeshare located at Myrtle Beach, SC. She left the message on my voice mail along with her number, which I called but had to leave my contact info whereupon I was contacted by a gentleman by the name of Jared Scott. He told me that he had a buyer for my property and asked me if I would accept an offer of $36, 000 and I told him I would. He also said that I needed to send him $1, 388.84 to get the process started and that a contract would be sent to me. I was to sign that contract and return it back to him. He also said that I had to use the company's attorneys for the title work. He further stated that I would be recieving my money back at closing along with a check for $36, 000.

I asked him if he had an actual buyer and was assured me that he indeed had a buyer. I asked Mr. Scott if Premier Timeshare Solutions was a timeshare for sale or rent company and if it was I wasn't interested in listing my timeshare with the company since it was listed with another company already. Mr. Scott said that the company wasn't a advertising timeshare company. A couple weeks later I contacted him and gave him my credit card info. On Oct. 6, 2017 I recieved the contract via Fed Ex. When I opened the envelope I discovered that Mr. Scott had lied and that the contract indeed was a contract in which they would list my property for sale.

Since that time I've tried repeatedly to contact the company for a refund and as of yet haven't been successful. Most of the time I've only gotten their voice mail. I leave a message and noone ever returns my call. On the few occasions that I've spoken with customer service I was told that someone would be calling me about my refund, but to this date I haven't heard from anyone concerning my refund. The 2 calls I've gotten since my promised refund was from a gentleman named Steve reminding me that I needed to send the signed contract back, (left message on my voicemail) and from another gentleman named Nathan Christian who I did talk to informing me that my property was sold and that I needed to get the signed contract back to the company before they could proceed. I told him of the difficulty I had experienced contacting them and he said that he'd take care of it. Gave me his supposedly direct line, but when I called it the next day, surprise, surprise I got his voicemail and that's all I've gotten. Never signed and returned the contract. Only want my money back.

We just received a phone call last night asking if we still had our timeshare on the market. If so Premier Timeshare Solutions would be glad to find a buyer for us. When I was hesitant and asked if any money was needed up front I was told no, not from her per se. She said that they get their money from the lending institution on the buyers loan and that they have qualified buyers that they work with that are looking for a time share. That seemed strange, but I gave her all the particulars on our time share and hung up. Within a couple of hours we got a call stating that they had a buyer for our time share that was offering 19, 500.00. Now mind you, we had never told them what we were asking and it was double what we had put it on the market for. Of course we were thrilled and then thought..if it seems to good to be true it probably is. So, my husband continued with the conversation to find out that all we had to do was send a check for $1, 500.00 to cover the cost of a title search and paperwork that would be covered by a listing agent. Since they were not agents this was necessary to collect and we would get it back at the close of escrow. We would get the full $19, 500.00 at close of escrow, plus our check in the amount of $1, 500.00 as well. My husband expressed his concern and asked the caller to send a copy of the contract. He told him that he wanted our attorney to look it over. We then received another call and I was still thinking it was probably a scam, but was hopefull that it wasn't. That money would come in very handy right now. That is when I decided to look up the company on line and found this site. I am so thankful that we didn't take this any further. In this ecomony I guess it is buyer as well as seller beware!

Not happy in California!

We, I should say the Wife, got a call from them in very late July 2017 offering us more for our time share than its worth.

The smooth talking salesperson told the Wife that they'd be sending paperwork up for our signature, but the Wife also gave them our credit card number.

When she showed me the paperwork, I read the terms and told her it was a scam. We got a call following up a couple days later asking to send the paperwork back. The Wife was getting upset because the 'buyer' needed to get a quick paperwork return. I took the paperwork and left it in my car. For about a month.

Shock of shocks, our credit card bill just came in and our card was hit for $2346.54 along with a foreign bank charge of $70.00. We called Visa and had them put a stop on the payment. The next day, we got a call from their sales crew asking for the paperwork because the 'buyer' is still waiting.

Needless to say, they won't be getting their paperwork.

I just put in a call to them telling them that I'd changed my mind and we're cancelling. Cancelling noting really, because they whacked my credit card without my permission.

Wish me luck. So far, Visa has been very helpful, but that foreign bank charge scares the heck out of me.

Premier Timeshare Solutions Timeshare resales

Regarding Premier Timeshare Solutions, 4400 Northcorp Parkway, Palm Beach Gardens, FL 33410, Phone: [protected], Fax: [protected], Business Start Date: N/A / Company ID: [protected]

If you have received an offer from Premier Timeshare Solutions and have not accepted it, don't. As of Aug. 3, 2009, it has an F rating from the Better Business Bureau of Southeast Florida and the Caribbean. Here is what the BBB says on its website:

Our opinion of what this rating means: We strongly question the company’s reliability for reasons such as that they have failed to respond to complaints, their advertising is grossly misleading, they are not in compliance with the law’s licensing or registration requirements, their complaints contain especially serious allegations, or the company’s industry is known for its fraudulent business practices.

Our complaint history for this company shows the company gave proper consideration to some complaints presented by the Bureau. However, the company failed to respond to one complaint.

You can check the website at http://www.seflorida.bbb.org/PrintReport.aspx?CompanyID=92014706

I received an offer more than double what I paid for the timeshare 18 years ago and was very suspicious. I eventually told them there would be no deal and that they do not check out very well. The salesperson immediately hung up.

They very carefully word their offer, apparently in an attempt to avoid violating the law.

concerned about the pubic giving their money away? far from the truth! an expert in the timeshare scam field? correct! due to the fact that i am still currently work for one of these scam companies and stealing money from the innocent!

Charlotte Dina Bailey, Charlotte Indina Bailey, Charlotte Indina Sweat Bailey, Indina Sweat, Dina Sweat…you get the picture right. Well after a little public records search in Palm Beach County Florida where she actually called me from I found out that this woman…if you would call her that, has a long history of domestic violence, drug abuse, prostitution, child neglect, and theft. Keep in mind this is all public information. Dating all the way back to 1983 where she caught a felony drug case that got her a small bit of county jail time and what they called drug offender probation. Well old girl didn’t learn her lesson, and violated that probation and did a little bit more jail time. Then on to the domestic violence. There were two reports of that and in both cases the court determined that she had lied. Now we have some of my favorite…more drug charges. Precious little Charlotte got pulled over for careless driving, and apparently the officer thought something was wrong and decided to search her car. Well low and behold there was enough drugs in that care to make it a felony traffic issue. Charlotte found some sad sack that would post bail and then she never showed up in court. A warrant was issued and she was later picked up on a solicitation charge…that’s right folks, prostitution. She was hauled in and she stayed at the county jail for 8 months waiting to see a judge. After 10 months they gave her time served. Hey folks it doesn’t stop there. She managed to straighten up for a bit and only received a suspended license charge. Now after that, some idiot thought that she may have some redeeming qualities and decided to knock her up, and she wasn’t a spring chicken. With an infant child named Leona, Charlotte seemed to be preoccupied and didn’t have time to get caught, until her daughter was a few months old, then the Department of Children and Family Services came in and took that little baby away. Why? Why would anyone do that? Well because Charlotte has a fondness for living in filth, not feeding or bathing the child and using a variety of drugs in her presence. Not just her but the poor schmuck Jeffery E. Hopp. They are both using drugs in front of a little baby. Charlotte’s daughter is a ward of the state, and the woman is in her 40’s. Good grief. The best part of it is that if you read in each court case, she says she was indigent, couldn’t afford a lawyer, and I am thinking to myself…what did you do with the 2, 000.00 that I gave you…oh wait the police report says that you bought crack cocaine with it….hmmm well I will sum it up: she is a filthy, manipulative, money, grubbing, lying, gutter [censored]. The state of florida is working on getting my money back. And they have her information. I take comfort in knowing that Karma is a ### and this woman’s problems are far from over.

Premier Timeshare Solutions Timeshare Sales

I'm so sorry to hear that. My experience with Premier Timeshare Solutions abosolutely shocked me! I was contacted by a sales rep around the first week of March and they sent out a contract a few days later, I reluctantly signed it and sent it back. It took much longer than they had expected but we finalized the sale of my timeshare on Thursday June 18th. I was thrilled! The check cleared and I'm now 'Timeshare FREE!' Unfortunately I feel that most of our news, media, and internet blogs are filled with all the negative comments, so i thought that i should shed a little light on this company by sharing my positive experience!

I received a call tonight from Premier Timeshare Solutions asking if I wanted to sell my timeshare. I told him I would be intersted in selling my timeshare, and he pitched the same offer as many others I see on line. He said they would contact me when they had an offer. No upfront fees, but when I pressed him for information about any fees at closing, he told me about the $1, 388.54 fee to do title research, etc. He assured me that I would get this fee back after the timeshare was sold. I checked for complaints about the company and read many that others has posted. Has anyone had a good/bad experience with another timeshare sales company called Premier Market Solutions from Kissimmee, FL? I find very few postings about this company. They charge a sales fee up front, but promise to refund it if the timeshare does not sell within six months.

We were contacted by ICare Timeshare Marketing Group, Inc. where we paid $1, 200 for a one time service fee which "covers everything" - once the property sells we are handed a check for the entire selling price. Well, needless to say - we have not received one offer - however there are several "buyers in negotiation" - what a crock. These companies need to be shut down! I seriously doubt there are any reputable Timeshare Selling companies out there.
