This is a companion post to the one I did on my recent WorldMark experience with RCI.
I conducted a trade test using all of my deposits in both Interval and RCI. They were all searching for one specific week at the Point at Poipu.
Whereas in RCI, the lockoff portion of my weeks deposit got what I was looking for, and WorldMark did not; in Interval--WorldMark got the unit I wanted, whereas both a one-bedroom lock off and the full two bedroom deposits did not get anything. The week's deposit in both RCI and Interval was the same week at the same Resort. (I own 2 weeks there.)
Weirdly, in Interval, I had ongoing requests using WorldMark from 2014, 2016, and 2018. The request that got the Point at Poipu was the 2018 request.
I called Interval to ask why the ongoing searches with earlier start dates had come up with nothing, whereas the more recent start date got the unit I wanted. The rep told me that the computer does random things. I disbelieve that, and suspect that Interval disregards requests that were started more than two years before the start date of the week you're looking for. Does anyone have information to verify that?
