Hi Mark,
I just deposited a second week - will I get "double" the promo Cash Card?
How should this show up in my account?

Hi Pat,

Thank you for second deposit. As of this moment, for a second 2011 deposit we are giving everything at www.sfx-resorts.com/promo except a second $500 Cash-Card.

HOWEVER... I do know that some kind of amount of Cash-Card credit is being discussed for a second deposit. If they do approve it, it won't be as much as $500, but it will be something. If you think about it, $500 is a lot for an exchange company to give away in fees during a two-year use period. But from our point of view, this promotion has been the most successful in 20 years. We have received an "Overwhelming" response!!

I will advise sometime next week of the final outcome.

Hope this helps...

Hmmm, should I wait to deposit until the next promo comes out?
And yes, it is a generous promo - hence the second week

You can still go ahead and deposit because whatever the dollar amount of the Cash-Card credit is, we will make it retroactive for deposits received as of the launch of the Cash-Card promotion.

Hope this helps...

Thx....

Hi Mark. I have a Suites at Hershey week with a July 1, 2011 check in. Your folks are telling me that it is not eligible for this promo. How can that possibly be? It's any future week right?

Hi Holly

I clicked on the link in Marks' signature and the 'new' offer popped up - it is the same as the previous with a slight upcharge in the bonus weeks but this can be off set by the savings from the Cash Card.....
HTH untill Mark responds

Cool...I may deposit it instead of renting it depending on the deal. I'm just sure that they take Hershey.

Unless you are planning a number of trips over the next two years you may be hard pressed to use the full $500 credit you have now. You have to remember that it is limited to specific uses and only covers some parts of some fees, not everything.

Now if you have several weeks you wish to do each year, or a larger number of sell-off weeks, or perhaps many bonus weeks you plan to use, it may be a good deal, just make sure it fits your needs.

Here is the break down.

Transaction Cash-Card Discount

Exchange Fee $20 Off
Upgrade Fee $100 Off
Bonus Week $400 or less $50 Off
Bonus Week more than $400 $100 Off
Bonus Week Upgrade Fee $100 Off
Sell-Off Week 20% Off
Vacation Protection $20 Off

Hi Pat - Sorry for the delay, have been traveling in Mexico for the last few days.

Yes, this is an extended promotion for existing Members that are banking a 2011 and/or 2012 qualified week. Everything is the same except for a small additional fee for the Bonus Weeks. And as you mentioned, you can use the Cash-Card to offset some of the costs.

Hope this helps...

Holly - Thank you for your post. Do you recall whom you spoke with? Apologize for any misunderstanding... assuming it's at least a 1 or 2 bedroom unit, we would be very glad to accept that deposit.

Let me know if you need any assistance.

You can use up to two promos off per transaction - so yes, I could use the Bonus week $100 off and bonus week upgrade fee $100 off in one transaction

And I do a more then a few deposits right now, so it will add up.

PortableTech - Thank you for your post. I just want to clarify how attainable the Money Savings are.

Worst-Case scenario...Just one exchange per year, for two years, with no upgrade and no bonus weeks or vacation protection saves you $40. Which is $40 more in your pocket.

Gets better... Only "one" vacation (exchange) per year over two years (No Bonus Weeks)… and if you upgrade to a larger unit…you save $240! That is a total extra $240 in your pocket.

Most probable scenario for most Members... 2 weeks of vacation per year. 1 exchange and 1 Bonus Week – upgrading one unit size.

Savings over 2 years….Take a total of $400 off your Bonus Weeks ($100 off the price, most Bonus Weeks start at around $400, and $100 off the size upgrade, x 2 years). Take another $240 off your exchanges. ($20 from the exchange fee, and $100 for the upgrade per year). That would be $640 !!! in savings if your card allowed it. The card is limited to $500.

So perhaps it's a little clearer now that you don't have to take several weeks of vacations in the next two years to “easily” redeem your $500.
Whether you save the least possible, or up to the most likely....this is a $40 to $500 in savings you don't get from any other exchange company... and very attainable with only two weeks (one exchange /one Bonus Week) of vacation per year. There are many people who take 3-6 weeks of vacation per year with us, who will achieve their savings even sooner.

Hope this helps...
