Thanks Mark. Wish my 2010 hadn't already been deposited. Hopefully there will be more good deals for 2012!

Hi Ellen - what are you doing with your 2011 week? Or is it an Every Other Year?

I will be depositing a 1 bedroom unit. I'm wondering if there is a choice on the request form to say we will only accept a 2 bedroom unit? We need it for this trip as we will have some others with us. Also, I am currently a gold member. If SFX gets us our 2 bedroom match can we sign up as platinum right then when they call us with the match and thus get the size upgrade for free (included in platinum membership)?

TIA

And another question, sorry I'm so new at this. I notice the terms for the bonus week offer says

To qualify for any of the above, you cannot request an exchange or Bonus Week back to your home resort

I'm wondering if I deposit a different week, not the one I am depositing for the bonus week, can I trade it back into my home resort?

Hi Daileyad - Within the Request Screen is a Comments Box. Within this box you can state you will only accept a 2 BR unit.

If you are a Gold Member at the time of the match, you will be required to pay the upgrade fee. If you are a Platinum Member, the upgrade is Free. If you vacation more than once a year, or own a 1 BR unit and only vacation once a year but need a 2 BR unit.... if you pencil out the cost of the Platinum Membership, the money you save on transacations and benefits is far greater than the cost of the membership.

You can save a few hundred dollars every year !!

Hope this helps...

Hi Daileyad - nothing to be sorry about, we are glad you have questions, and we are here to help.

When you state a "different week", do you mean another week from the same resort? or a week from a completely different resort?

Please advise,

Mark,

Can you answer a question for the special you are running currently. I have a Bonus week that will expire December 2010 and want to know if that bonus week will be extended under the promotion of if that is just for deposited weeks.

KT - thank you for your post. One year extensions are just for the Exchange weeks, not the Bonus Weeks.

If by chance you don't get to use the Bonus Week, when you deposit your next week with us, you will be issued for more Bonus Weeks.

Hope this helps and thank you for your business...

It's another week from the same resort.

Daileyad - thank you for your post. No, you wouldn't be able to trade back to the same resort you deposited your week from, nor use the Bonus Week at that resort.

Here is the sound reasoning...

The reason we offer incentives is to encourage owners to trade out, so other owners can trade in. Exchange companies do not create space for exchanges, as the space is created by owners depositing their weeks and trading out. So, the whole idea is for us to create as much available space as possible to satisfy members, and this is why we have that rule. Its for all the right reasons.

Hope this helps...
