Yes in this situation it works to new owners favor. When the new owner gets jacked is if deed is transferred before use year start. I compare your analogy of this being fair to Wyndham's new policy when buying a developer deed in July and points not being available until Jan 1st as reported by a few on TUG. New rules in place learn how to make them work to your benefit.
Ok Use my above example with a contract that transferred March 1, 2019 with March 31, 2019 use year end.
Wyndham realigns the end of the use year to December 31, 2019 with full 2019. Your are still getting full 2019 points. If Wyndham prorated the points for 10 months you still don’t get full 2019 points.
Your wanting double 2019 use year points. You want full 2019 points for a month & then another full set of 2019 points for 9 months.
Wyndham will never give you double 2019 points & you shouldn’t be complaining about not getting double use year points.
This thread & topic is on resells only.
But I will tell you on new purchases from Wyndham.
I went through use year realignment when Voyager was being launched so all use years started January 1.
I then bought up to Platinum in January or February & Wyndham had the use year starting July 1st & no points available until July 1st. That’s when I went back & called BS!! The use year & points change the way they should be or we rescind. That’s when it was corrected within an hour
