RCI 5 year guest certificate

[bellesgirl Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close bellesgirl]

From the Terms and Conditions for Weeks:

No more than two co-owners of a single Vacation Ownership may apply for a single RCI Weeks Subscribing Membership. If a Vacation Ownership is owned by more than two persons, each person must apply for separate RCI Weeks Subscribing Memberships. RCI may honor instructions from any person listed in RCI’s records as a co-owner of Vacation Ownership and, in the event of conflicting instructions, RCI may refuse to honor any later instruction received.

That is what I have been told by RCI as well. Again, it may be different with Points, but that is the rule for Weeks, as far as I know. pranas- are you points or weeks?

Then that clouds the issue.

Normally you cannot rely on what someone at RCI tells you.

More Guest Certificate Clarifications

Hello all and thank you for all the wonderful information here on this forum.

Interpreting this as - after I confirm I should check directly with the resort to see if they are really going to want a guest certificate before I pay for one?

In real life, not the RCI world, some resorts do not require Guest Certificates, especially for family members. They realize it is just a way for RCI to make more $$$. Within the last 10 years RCI has decided to charge for things they used to do for free. Well, not free since everyone pays to be a subscriber.

Many resorts have websites and respond to email. You can check with resorts before you confirm an exchange.

No. You should find out what a resort requires before you confirm an exchange.


There is a world of difference between the way some resorts operate and the way RCI operates. At a resort, the resort rules rule.
