I have always received an offer from II for my Williamsburg units. I have been sitting on my July 2017 weeks waiting for the offer, but nothing yet.

Anyone else get one for Williamsburg are yet?

Do you own a location that always received one in the past, but not anymore? Wondering if II is reducing these offers.

I would really like to get these units deposited into II or RCI - but the AC is what I am looking for. (and yes, I know they are limited, but we travel to Orlando a couple times of year and can always use them there). So, they are worth it for us.

I too usually get an offer at this time of year. I am waiting on depositing my 2 weeks also. I own in Lake Tahoe. I usually use at least one of my AC's for Branson each summer There was an offer in the Spring which didn't work for me as my weeks get 150 TDI in July and I always book and deposit 150 TDI weeks to get the best trading power. The Spring offer ended on June 26th just in time for the new upgrade fees. So maybe they did the push for deposits early before the new fees could result in fewer deposits? I am still "waiting and seeing"

We have not been offered anything for our 2017 summer Lake Lure units and we've always been offered AC's in the past.

We did get ours about two months ago, so they haven't disappeared. However, I know that II is very worried that our resort will dual-affiliate, so that might be why.

Not yet on my Foxrun summer 2017 week. Last year I got it really late though, like Nov I think.

I get one every year for my Hawaii week but years ago I could give them any week, and in my current offer they specify April to August. I own a fall floating week so that's no help. And the ACs have become so worthless lately I would probably let it expire unused anyway. Usually the kind of weeks you can get wit the AC can be purchased as a getaway for about the same price and it's less hassle to do that.

Just showed up in my units this morning:hi:. They are getting more restricted all the time, but I can usually get a week in Branson. We love Table Rock Lake and live in MO so I look for a resort on the lake. Only a 5 hour drive...

Mine showed up on my Foxrun within the past few days. I'll deposit today and then I can tell if it's more retricted than normal.

Received mine and still very restricted. I deposited a very strong week (has pulled Crystal Shores outside of Marriott preference, Atlantis April weeks). The trend of excluding Marriott's (most of them) continues.

I still did not receive an AC for my week in Williamsburg plantation. Does it make sense to wait with the deposit to maybe get one?

I've been plagued with AC deposit offers; even after I deposited!

The AC is nothing to crow about though; grids and more grids.

It will pull good properties however--just maybe not at the best times.

It is only good for flexchange exchanges within 59 days of checkin.

Loved Branson, we stayed at Branson in the Meadows a few years back loved the shows and the restaurants, we did the Sunday Brunch at The College of the Ozarks, was so good! We sat with another couple because we had made a reservation for 4 and our friends did not go with us. I would go back there again. Not just for kids!

I'm still waiting for my Kings Creek, Williamsburg offer also. My unit is a LO - so I may just deposit the 1BR side for now so I can start playing with that and then throw the 2BR in later on if no offer shows in a month or so.

I have given up waiting. I'm going to deposit one of my units tonight. So, of course the AC offer will show up next week.

ACs multiply like bunnies in my accounts - I have 6 in my 3 accts that appear randomly. Most expire by December and of course I already have a trip planned. One I can extend.

I did get an offer for Marriott Manor Club 2 BR (non lock off in Williamsburg) but I have heard that many other Williamsburg owners at other resorts that usually get one for summer weeks, did not get one this year.

I have 2 sitting now - but they are the freebie ACs which I may or may not end up using. But, the ACs for deposits....I always use, so they are valuable to me.

that is what I thought....by now I should have received the offer. I still only deposited one week with II. Debating if the other will go to II or RCI.

AC weeks usually useless to us

Right now we have a 3 bedroom for 8 AC. Have not even been able to get AZ off season for a two bedroom. The Getaways have one bedroom AAZ weeks for as little as $40 per night.And two bedrooms not much more.They used to get us decent weeksbut not much luck anymore. SO bad I hardly even consider looking.

I have one that expires in February. They can be tough to use unless you are very flexible. Its nice to have the option but I have let many expire.

can you trade an AC exchange if something else comes up better?
