Wyndham Vacation Ownership review: Completely lied to and manipulated

We were lied to from the very beginning. What was supposed to be a quick 90-minute presentation turned into over four hours of relentless pressure from at least five different salespeople. They kept saying "this is NOT a timeshare" - over and over - but that's exactly what it is. They used our grandsons (ages 4 and 8) as part of their manipulation, giving them coloring books and asking where they wanted to vacation, telling us the boys could "inherit this ownership." We said no at least ten times before we finally broke down. The lies were unbelievable. They promised it was like owning a vacation home that would build equity. They said we could rent it out for income. They swore once the loan was paid off, we'd have no more bills. NEVER ONCE did anyone mention maintenance fees - not during the entire presentation, not during the rushed tablet signing. We were shocked when the first bill came and horrified to learn these fees increase forever and become a lifelong debt that even our grandchildren would inherit. They heavily pushed a "special Disney partnership," claiming we'd have priority access to Disney resorts and could book cruises with our points because our grandkids love Disney. That was HUGE for us. Complete lie - none of it is possible through Wyndham. When we asked about exiting, they said just call our salesman. He ignores every call and text. The signing was deliberately deceptive - pages scrolled fast on a tablet, no time to read, just "sign here." Documents were buried in meaningless emails later. Availability is terrible, and we can book the same properties on Expedia for far less than what we're paying. My wife faces open-heart surgery soon. We're raising our grandsons full-time. We're choosing between her medical care, the children's needs, and these payments based on lies. This company preys on seniors and families. Absolute fraud.
