I have been reading quite a bit here in the forums. I would just like to verify a few things if I could.
My wife and I took the presentation and signed up for a 6000 point charter member package at Horizons on 77th. We have 2 more days to recind this. We were drawn to the cool places and nice resorts. Plus the ability to pay it off then only have to pay maintenance and club fees to keep it into the future, and give it to the kids afterwards. Traveling on the off periods is not much of a problem for us, even with my son in school. However we wanted the bonus time usage for shorter excursions close by and use of the hot weeks for longer stays. Getting the specific week at Horizons, while it is a good week, is not as important.
We looked online after the presentation, and were horrified at some of the negative reviews. Then I found this forum where people seem to have a grip.
From what I have read here, it seems i can get these features if I go through pinnacle and purchase someones charter member points. There were several 3000 point ones, annually, I looked at for roughly $3500-4000. I guess i need to pay a transfer fee along with the price mentioned to get use of the bonus time/hot weeks/cruises correct?
Then if i need more points per year i can just purchase another deed, with points, not needing to be charter member status (since i already have it).
It is possible to indeed book reservations correct? Many negative revies mentioned never having the ability to get rooms, or a bait and switch from a resort room to a standard (crummy) motel.
I thank you all in advance,
The old man
