Status for unauthorized points

[Bethsat Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Bethsat]

We have seen great bargains on ebay, etc. for 20,000 point packages. If we do not buy from an authorized resaler, will be able to get the silver level benefit such as booking 13 months in advance, etc. I understand no bonus nights or travelers plus would be included. But if the silver level status for advance booking is not recognized there would be no need for us to have have that amount of points. We travel prime time and would need the ability to book far in advance. Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Sorry. No wait list privileges. Also note that no one can "book" 13 months out. You can only get on a wait list. The only people who can "book" 12 months out are those who want to go to the specific resort and specific unit/week that is on the deed that backs up their points.

Tell us where, when, and what you want and we might be able to give you some info to indicate if you can get it without the wait list.

We have three children and take vacation Memorial day week and/or July 4th week. The BG resorts we would like to book would be Myrtle Beach oceanfront, Big Cedar, Arizona and possibly the Fountains. Not sure we could get those without wait list privileges. Any ideas?

Send a PM to Bocabum on this forum. He is a referal agent for pinnacle and is able to get you a good price with privileges. It may not be as cheap as ebay, but if you need to get the level to get your name in the hat, then you need to pay a little extra for that.
