99% of TMC owners have been defrauded, scammed and duped from the moment they stepped into the 2-floor sales office for their "presentation", i.e., lies and misrepresentations, from their ultimate purchase until the present. owners are left with exponentially exorbitant maintenance fees and major difficulty getting desirable reservations. the former new york state attorney general, eric schneiderman's in his case against TMC/IAN BRUCE EICHNER, acceptance of the so-called litigation "settlement" was a disgrace which left TMC shareowners with the same problems we currently face. schneiderman's undercover agents attended and recorded TMC sales presentions and proved, i believe, that criminal fraud in the form of false and misleading sales statements took place. there was a bait-and-switch scenario that occurred.
a discussion on this forum, offering ideas for solutions to these common issues/problems, will be helpful for us owners to obtain justice for being defrauded. the end result is that we want substantially reduced maintenance fees, and restructuring of the reservation process, among other individual injustices.
we are in desperate need to get a high percentage of owners to even become aware of these issues involving their TMC investment. many owners are not aware that forums like TUG exist. they remain uninformed of the issues. a possible solution is to obtain a list of owners with email addresses. this list, i understand, will not be made available by TMC. they do not want all of us owners to know of the above issues. this is one issue where TUG members can offer ideas to accomplish this.
an FYI: there are many owners who are willing to literally give away their ownership to relieve themselves of the financially distressful burden to them created by TMC.
