  • Big Cedar Owner's Update

    All,

    I just got back from my owners update, which are now being held at the Paradise Point resort. They hit me up at check-in and offered me $125 in Big Cedar dollars to use at the resort. However, when I went over this morning, they told me they were calling to offer me to cancel as they would not be giving the incentive (not sure where they called as I never got a message). I did tell them I did an owner's update at Falls Village in Oct 2011 when I scheduled and they told me that as long as it had been 30 days, I would be eligible. My issue was that I brought Big Cedar resale points off E-bay and they hit my account 3 weeks ago. Apparently any point transactions within the last 90 days made me ineligible. I did the update anyway because I find them entertaining.

    I was surprised what they offered. As I only have resale points from Christmas Mountain Village, Falls Village, and Big Cedar Wilderness Club, they told me that they have a "promotion" as Big Cedar. They would take all my points deeds and combine them into one deed with a common anniversary date, if I bought at least 6000 EOY points at what I would consider an OK price (obviously not as good as the Pinnacle price). They claim the benefit would be that I could get out of the CMV special assessment.

    Has anyone ever heard of them willing to do this for resale accounts? I was always under the understanding that you could no longer combine these (and have been told that every time I went in for an update).

    Also, I know I have one in Trust Fund A and the rest in Trust Fund E. They tried to tell me that I have to pay $320 for every Trust Fund E deed and they do not combine them. I thought the $320 was once for all Trust Fund E deeds.

    BTW, I am at The Cliffs at Long Creek and the property is beautiful. I love in in home theater and they are so spacious and well maintained. I would highly recommend them if you get the chance.

    The $320 deal for trust fund "e" is like you understand it....one $320, regardless of the number of accounts. I'm not sure about trust "a", but I understand there is a special assessment for work being done at CMV. I don't think they will combine the "non-authorized" accounts, but if they put it in writing and you bring it up in closing, who knows. How low would they go, price wise, per point?

          Recently I heard that sales critters will offer this deal, write it up, and then when it gets to corporate, the deal gets canceled. I have no actual experience or real data to back that up.

          Is your CMV a Trust Fund A? If so, you might end up actually paying a hefty SA. Trust Fund A might be the Trust Fund in which SA's are simply passed through to the owners.

            BG is the one doing the selling, they can bend their own rules as they see fit. Would DEFINITELY want any deal plainly spelled out in the contract.

            But corporate BG doesn't seem to have any idea what the sales people tell potential customers. This is the reason to be wary of what any of the sales people promise or say.
