Another unauthorized RCI deposit

[Carolinian Super Moderator Find all posts View Profile Close Carolinian]

A friend of mine emailed me that he had been the victim of one of the seemingly growing number of unauthorized RCI deposits. He received a banking notice from RCI, and called them to say he had NOT banked his week. The week involved was a fall Outer Banks week, he almost always uses himself. He was referred to a supervisor at RCI and told that it was the resort that had banked his week, that another member had been confirmed into it, and nothing could be done. The resort involved does not bank weeks for members and has not even banked HOA weeks with RCI since RCI changed the rules on resort bulkbanking several years ago. RCI seems to have arbitrarily banked the week and now doesn't want to turn loose of it.

How awful but how can they do this and not correct it? Can't they trace where the mistake was made?

I do not know how good his relationship with the resort but he could call the resort, tell them he did not authorize the deposit and let them know that RCI is placing the blame on them (the resort). The resort should then be able to pull the banked week from the RCI spacebank stating it was banked in error.

RCI will have to do their usual tap dance around this one.

I find it amazing the amount of lies RCI tells members. I've had one unit banked on me in error. It is not a pleasant situation. I was going to bank the week, but with II not RCI.

Absolutely!!

RCI often cancels confirmed exchanges. ( we've read about it several times here). If he didn't deposit his week then he should demand the the resort refuse the deposit/ exchange.
