YIPPEE - Wyndham says I am an owner!

[GrayFal Silver Contributor and supermoderator Find all posts View Profile Close GrayFal]

Just got my letter congratulating me on my vacation ownership purchase

My contract number is correct for my Royal Vista ownership.
My member number is wrong - as I was given the number that is associated with my other Wyndham fixed week and this doesn't match
It also says my next monthly payment is due 7/19/08 but then says there is no balance due??? (previous owner prepaid the MF for the year)
And there is an application for an RCI membership - and this is an II affiliated resort.

But I am happy to at least be the system.... this purchase started on ebay the end of March so about 3.5 months start to finish.
Deed was mailed to Wyndham in early May, they acknowledged receiving it 5/20 so about 5 weeks to get into their system...not tooooo bad!

good and bad. You are the 3rd posts I saw that owner was purchasing for II but Wyndham trys to give them RCI instead, although they have purchased specific with II in mind.

Since I did not start with fix week, so could not tell for sure. I will guess they have different systems for week and point, that is the reason they give you a different membership number. I actually have no idea if I get another membership for my fix week purchase or not.

Good thing is they send you the RCI form instead of set you up automatically. You May want to call Owner Relations with your new account number or contract number and ask for II form.

Congratulations . I guess you now have access to their web-site.

Yes, I have seen the other posts, too!

The reason it is annoying about the membership number is that when I called to check on the transfer service - WYNDHAM gave me my owner number and told me to fax the owner number and 2 contracts number to the ownership transfer department so they would be all in one account.

And yes, it is good news about the RCI application....I will call about that I didn't try the website because I want to get the ownership number corrected so don't want to set up the account online with the wrong number

I was able to log in online!

I was thinking about the 2 owners numbers and thought - SO what! LOL

As fixed weeks and points are apples and oranges, it doesn't matter if I have 2 different owner numbers. Good point Jya-Ning

Now I will call tomorrow and give them my points owner number and my next contract that is closing - they should have that deed by now...so that the 2 points contracts will be under the same ownership number.

and the II/RCI thing......

I am enjoying looking around the website......very NICE

Good for you Pat!!! I'd like to own at Wyndam so I could go to Nashville!! Kelli & I love it there!!

I also just closed on a ts. A lady on tug gave me her week 12 @ The Beachhouse in Myrtle Beach. It ends up being Easster lots of times. It only cost me $265 for the closing into my name!! I'm hoping to either use it or trade back in during a little later time or just use to get a good week somewhere. I needed this like I need a hole in the head but oh well, at least it's close enough for me to drive to. Cheers to us for our new weeks!! shaggy
