Anyone own Worldmark here? Looking for a week.

[Sydney Contributor - Bronze Find all posts View Profile Close Sydney]

I need someone to book a week at a SP Worldmark resort and bank with SFX to fill our request.
Trying to organise a family get-together at a Worldmark resort in Australia and a couple of options have fallen through or haven't been economical enough, by the time we work out extra foreign exchange and money transfers.

I need a 2br booking costing 10,000 cr. It can be booked now as it is 11 months out, so it is within US members' booking window for South Pacific resorts. I have a request in with SFX for it but they would need a Worldmark owner to bank it to fill our request. Please pm me if you'd like to do this and I can tell you the week/resort we need. So, if you do have a Worldmark account with 10,000 cr, would you consider booking the week in Australia, and bank it? That way, they can fill our request.

Alternatively, if you [are a Worldmark owner and] can book the week for us, I can let you have my SFX spacebank. Please pm me if you prefer this option.

Thanks!

*edited to make my post clear as realised it was ambiguous.

When does your space bank expire?
I have a 1BR deposited that is good until July 2015 - I have a gold ownership so I can get a 2BR with that 1 BR.
email me…

Oops, just re-read what u posted - I own Wyndham but do not points again until 10/1/14 and the booking window is 10 months out.

Hi Pat, not sure if you if I communicated my dilemma well.

My spacebank expires Nov 2014. That's not an issue though, as the week I need is for Sep 2014. I can also book a 2br with my spacebank so that's also not an issue.

I'd just prefer to use my spacebank for the Worldmark request, since the other options fell through, and SFX have confirmed that they can work on getting the week I need if someone with Worldmark deposits. So now I'm just looking for a Worldmark owner to actually deposit it with SFX to fill my request.

Yup, not something I can help you with, sorry.

Very convoluted. I can get you what you want directly but am not willing to deposit it in SFX because they were unable to fill a request asked for 2 years prior to check-in.

I can deposit into SFX or just get a 2 bed WM unit. What works for you ?

Easyrider, are you happy for me to give you my SFX spacebank that expires in Nov 2014? I can give you access to my account for you to place your own request. Or would you rather have the week to exchange in your own SFX account? My thinking is that it'll probably be easier for you to exchange in your own account. It'll also mean if you deposit with SFX, your spacebank will have a longer expiry, Sep 2016 I think. So it would be better for you in that sense too.

It's totally up to you because you're going to be the one using the spacebank, whether yours or mine. I will pm you because if you go ahead, you'll probably need to contact an SFX rep to let them know that week is for me. Otherwise it might get lost in the system. Thanks so much!

You own Wyndham Worldmark? Or Wyndham Wyndham? Sorry, I thought the booking window for overseas Worldmark resorts is 11mths because I was able to book an SF Worldmark week 11 mths out?

Lawren, thanks for considering. I wish I had something you need/want, but first, would prefer to use the spacebank I have with SFX before it expires. Thanks!

I am totally confused here.
Couldn't you just transfer your spacebank to someone else and let them book directly what you need in Worldmark?
Is the week you want sitting in SFX right now or are they going to try to get it for you?

She needs a Worldmark owner to deposit the week she needs into SFX so she can use her unit deposited there to exchange….so I am not sure how she can give that person her space bank as she needs it to exchange unless she has TWO weeks on deposit with SFX.

quite confusing

I just check the WM inventory and there are only 3 days of the 7 available. I sent you a pm.

Yeah it is confusing.
I don't understand why a WM owner can't just let her use the week directly and she just let's them book something with her SFX deposit.
Why pay two exchange fees instead of just one?

That is one of the options she suggested. The newly deposited unit would have a year longer shelf life with the exchange company.

Will SFX let me transfer the spacebank into someone else' account? Didn't know they could do that.
Yes, it would be better not to have to pay 2 exchange fees. But then again, having a longer expiry date might be better.

I'm not sure Sydney.
I've not yet done any exchanging with SFX.
