My husband and I also went to the TLC presentation in Las Vegas. After many hours of high pressure salesmen swarming us, we broke down and signed a ton of papers. After getting back to our hotel room, we started doing a bit of research. We wanted to back out that very night. We noticed in very fine print at the bottom of the contract that we had signed that we have 5 days to cancel. We sent a letter of cancellation, certified mail, return receipt requested. We still went through the wringer with this company, even after our formal cancellation letter. Harassing calls at all hours. But anyway, our credit card company returned our money. I’m so glad we noticed that cancellation clause.
thanks for helping me... we filed the paperwork for cancelation today.. your video really scared me I'm glad I seen it. I'll be sharing it on my Facebook as well
+leahchristine53ify I've been trying to sue them for months. But in order to sue then I need a valid addressed them so far every address is tried comes back undeliverable. Do you have an address for them
Literally 100 % exactly what u said happened to me.. bogus 100 dining credit bogus free spins. I'm sure bogus week long cruise and what's terrible is there were like 3 other random couples that bought when we did so I hope they figure it out too.. thank u again for sharing this info I'm sending my cancel letter first thing 2maro.. thankfully I found this video within my 5 day grace period
These people are scammers! We tried to cancel 8 or 9 days later and they refused! We told them we could not afford the hidden costs. They said they did not care! I will call this woman!
My husband & I have this timeshare also for about 2 years now. I hate them the amounts of money we have to spend on them & never get to use them!!! We too want out of them & don't know how to get out of them!!! Please HELP!!!!
I just got suckered into buying a 40,000 point package for $8,000 with $850 annual fees. I knew timeshares were a bad idea, but got suckered anyway since they made me feel that I was getting a special deal on a liquidated timeshare at a steal of a price. I bought in, but was aware that any high pressure sales contract has a rescission period. Thankfully, Nevada law has instituted a rescission period on timeshare resales in the last year or so, which gave us 5 days to cancel. This wasn't the case for many unfortunate people who bought in 2013 and before, when all sales were final.The sales manager had the ba11$ to tell me not to think about the timeshare much right after I bought it, just wait and enjoy the benefits when they arrive. Glad I found this video. Would have cancelled anyway, but now I could be more sure about it. Thanks for taking the time and posting this Brandon. You may have gotten screwed over, but you have probably helped several like me avoid this trap. A word of advice to anyone thinking of just stopping their annual payments. The sales guy told me that if I wanted to no longer own this timeshare, I could just walk away and stop making payments. What he didn't mention (speaking of half truths), is that I legally would still be responsible for paying the timeshare. A collection agency would come after me and destroy my pristine credit. The timeshare would be liquidated and they would resell my resold timeshare to another sucker like me. Once you buy it, you cant get rid of it. If you want to buy a resale timeshare, go on ebay and buy one for $1. Sellers will pay the closing costs (upto $1k) just to get rid of it. Then you will be on the hook for the $500 to $1000 a year fees.
great vid.. I purchased a tlc package in Sept. 2014 and have yet taking a luxurious vacation like they promised. I have made my monthly payments, maintenance, and service payments and have yet to receive my 20k points.. they told me I can borrow points from 2016 which will only be 12k points which will get you nothing.. it's a shame that tax payers can get screwed in situations like this.. I will most definitely help out in a class suit to get these bastards shut down
+leahchristine53ify the letter needs to say you do not want the membership and want a complete refund of all money paid. Also cancel all payments that haven't been taken yet
My husband and I were staying at the 4 Queens and this fast talking guy walks up with this sale pitch I will give you $300.00 dollars playing card to use at any casino you want a $100 food card and a free 3 day 2 night hotel stay just do this tour it's a 90 minute tour but I need $40 to secure your spot. My husband heard $300 and was like ok I told him something was fishy anyways we went I took my husband's ATM card from him soon as we got there they needed to see it he said he did have one they told us to have a seat meanwhile 30 minutes go by I ask for his $40 dollars back they tried to brush me off but I stood my grounds I got very loud and let all the poor people they almost slammed to get their money and run all seven couples came out we got our money only one elderly couple gave in to their bullsh##......
Welcome to our world of almost 3 yrs!!!! We paid a couple thousand dollars more! We have NEVER been able to use it. I have given them more then 7 mos to find us a place and we have yet to use what we pay for each month. We too have gone online to hotel.com and booked a room much cheaper in less notice. Everything that has been said regarding TLC/RCI is True. Any legal action taken against this company....WE ARE SO IN!
Nice to know we're not alone in this. Same story as Brandon's, just a month previous. Tried to use TLC for a trip to Disneyworld this summer - no availability....Their high-pressure techniques with empty promises are ridiculous. My wife and I feel so stupid and gullible; I know we should know better, but we got suckered in by these weasels. We're stopping payment on the auto withdrawels, but I would love to get back what we've already paid....Will be talking to a lawyer very soon....I like the idea of a class action suit...There has to be hundreds of us, if not thousands.
don't do it..... all lies. we have been trying to use our points for 2 years now and on top of the cost, maintenance fees and TLC fees you also have to pay fees to book. IF THEY HAVE ANYTHING IN THE AREA YOU WANT . GETTING OUT OF IT, UNFORTUNATELY WE LOST LOTS OF MONEY AS WELL.. BOY DID THEY SEE US COMING..
Hello Brother, thanks for your video! I also live in WA and like you signed up with them at the Plaza but did it in 2016! I have several times tried to schedule a vacation and run into the same issues as you either. They are too expensive and the points don’t do anything because you don’t have enough or they don’t have anything available when you want to go. I’m a schoolteacher, so yes, I have a similar problem as people with children! Just wondering if anything has happened with them because I recently got threatening calls again because my credit card changed and they couldn’t automatically charge it. Everybody should steer clear of this company and drop them as soon as possible. I just don’t know how to get rid of them.have you heard anymore on them?
I was told the same thing, 5000.00, 152 per month, never used it. To use it, I have to pay 2-300 to use it? What am I paying for?? Don't do it, it's a scam!
@@live42Day Ok... this happened to my husband and I ... we got married on july 4 2018 and 2 months later they called and said we won a vacation through our visit at "Pawn Stars". So we were under the assumption that we "WON" the 4 day 3 night vacation at the Plaza Hotel. Long story short, we went on June 5th 2019 and went to the presentation, and some moron with a wig and the gift of gab swindled us into this vacation membership. After giving us $300 in what might as well of been monopoly promotional gambling vouchers, a trip to Hawaii...and 5 BONUS vacations.... my husband gave them $2000 in cash. The very same night I googled TLC Resorts and started reading reviews and was instantly sick to my stomach. I right then wrote a letter of cancellation, called the moron with the wig who of course did not respond but that next morning we marched right back into that same room and demanded our money be refunded.... that Nevada state law requires a 5 day refund policy ( which by the way they never once mentioned during this scam that we had the right to change our minds) Then they wanted to cut our deal in half and when my husband said no we want our $ back now... they then said that the $ will have to be mailed to us within 7 days. That was going to become a scene and I think they knew it because they whisked us to the back, gave us our cash back in full and basically escorted us out the backdoor as to not make it a scene in front of the other potential victims. We were just lucky that we got a gut feeling about this shit and I am so sorry that you got stuck. This company is nothing but a fraud and the wig wearing moron is lining his pockets with innocent peoples hard earned money. Please let me know if you ever got anywhere with your lawsuit....My email is rikki88@yahoo.com.... Thank you..All we can do is share this information with each other like you did to keep others safe from these crooks!
Had a very similar experience pretty sure that it was the same gangsters working out of - The grand view resorts Las Vegas, just last week January 2017, except they were selling 'real estate ' you can't lose I was told. They didn't work of points though and Jeff our agent was quick to point out the failings of the points system, anyway we didn't buy it all sounded to good with high pressure sales, just no. We got our free show tickets noticed our free gambling vouchers were out of date and didn't get to use our buffet voucher, we paid a 50dollar deposit which we got back so we were just down vacation time... 4.5 hrs and got free show tickets; feel for you tough and hope there is some way out of it
I had the same experience. Going to Vegas. Staying at the Plaza hotel. Being talked into going into the presentation. Not wanting but falling into all the false promises. the restaurant card. The cruises that never were given. Anyways, I have regretted this more than ever because now I'm paying for maintenance fee of a resort that I have not been too. the 20000 points that doesn't promise an all inclusive stay. I'm paying monthly payments for what? I haven't even been on a vacation. and I've been a member since September 2014. how I wish I could relive that day and had told them to f*** Off. I wish I knew how to get rid of this without losing anymore money.
my name is natasha me and my girl got this 2 day I'm hoping this is not a rip off but it really sounds like it they made my sign a contract and saying I owe them 9000 and I put 3200 down
These people are scammers we got the same shitty giftcard and I’m glad I didn’t sign up for the timeshare , the couple at the table next to us had a rude timeshare employee who literally said “thank you for wasting my effin time!” Because they didn’t wanna sign up. We even heard another silly comment from one of their employees bragging how he has more money than god. I just wanted to get the heck outta there. We were being pressured by two people to sign up and I kept telling them no over and over. Worst experience ever.
Hi Brandon, I just purchased one on May 7th, 2015, so I haven't received any of the paperwork yet. I really thought I had made a smart decision but after watching your video, I am really upset. Please keep us updated and let us know if you are able to get out of it and if you get any of your money back. Thanks and good luck. :)
Wish I'd have seen this before I purchased at the end of May! Same company, same hotel. If you find a way out, let us know! I'll do the same! Doesn't look good, though. Are we now members for life!? Ouch!
I just stopped payment. the sent me to collections and I wrote the collection company explaining that what was happening was illegal. the collection company dropped the tlc account. tlc would call me and my fiance multiple times a day and even threatened to have us arrested. they are bullies . but they have stopped trying to collect. there was no property or service traded do they can't force collection
+Brandon Cornell what's the status on your case? You're like my only light of hope in this hell hole. These guys are charging us the annual fees of $600 plus the membership points of $180!! Plus the monthly.... Please tell me you're making progress.
I was just contacted by the TLC resorts company. I notified them that I will be filling a lawsuit against them next week if they do not come to an agreement. They have told me to take down my video. I will not take down what I believe to be true. It's my right as an American to rate any company. I have been wronged they lied and are not trust worthy.
Brandon Cornell I think this company is a scam to now. I got my package back in April 2015 in vegas. I tried to cancel with thin 3 days of getting it. I even reported it to my bank and had them to talk to them. Guess what tlc won.
Here we have a law enforcement officer, and a nurse getting scammed by scum of the earth in the biggest fraud ever. I hope and pray for justice, may their backs be broken and the people responsible live in misery till the day of their death or they repent for this horrible injustice.
I'm thinking of cancelling my auto pay and if that leads to bad credit, I don't care. We had the same results, couldn't get a vacation when and where we wanted to. I keep forgetting about them, but now I need to take action as I've been wasting my money from 7/3/14 is when we bought. Didn't even get to use it . We tried searching numerous times and unavailable as usual. Let me know how's the lawsuit going. I'm in. Will email you my info. Thanks for the video.
FOUR CORNERS OF THE DOCUMENT….PAROL EVIDENCE RULE…just because you are in law enforcement does not make you knowledgeable about all things legal. You got taken for a ride and are a chump.
I would like to ask everyone a favor that has had similar experiences. Could you please email me a letter explaining what happened to you so that I can present it to the courts. And I'll do the same for you. If we get enough people maybe we can class action them
I will. I waa almost scammed by rci earlier this month (aug. 2015). Long story short, I thought I was making a payment for like $219. They took out $1000 on my vacation! I was pissed! They are definitely fraudulent.
Just an update to everyone. as of today I'm preparing to file a lawsuit against TLC resorts tomorrow. I have tried over and over to meet on common ground with this company. I will just have to put it into the court's hands.
I went a 6 weeks ago to tbis with a friend they told me that we both have to sign a paper for him to sell it to my friend I wasn't told anything else also told him we are not married come to find out after they been calling you for days that they put we're married on the paperwork I can prove I'm legally not married I don't know what to do that's why I had to do the same with a lawsuit
Yeah you have 5 day from the purchase date to cancel just go back to the plaza to talk with the manger or send in a letter stating that you want to cancel address should be online under the rci guidlines
+Christopher Mack what do I include in my letter? I have a bunch of copies that I signed when I purchased mine and I didn't have much time to research what I was buying. Bone head move I know.
Brandon's World thank you so much sir, you just saved me from making a stupid mistake, I just signed my papers today, I’ll be counting hours to go to the post office and send off my cancellation letter. Again thank you and sorry about your bad experience. GOD bless
Have you read this reply? Rebecca Warner 1 year ago I purchased my property from TSL in Las Vegas years ago for $4000. I use the snot out of it, and I love it. I have never been to my home resort, but I have been SEVERAL other places. You have to be flexible and creative, but you can make it work. Additionally, there are often last minute deals and sales through RCI. I stayed in a one bedroom in Pinetop, AZ for a week in late May for $168.00 and no points on one of the RCI sales. But, I spent a lot of time studying RCI before I took a vacation.
hi, if anyone knows an address for this company that may be accurate please let me know, i am moving forward with a lawsuit but their address is an issue.
+Ahsaki Castro I too am trying to find this info. I'm trying to find their board of directors, I assume if we blow up their email and snail mail with info from how we were scammed, they might get sick of us, enough to do something for us? I have no other ideas.
You should be contacting these people to see if you can get a top action lawsuit. Here's the website : topclassactions.com/. If you can do this I want to be apart of this lawsuit. Hope this helps.
So How is your case going?I am not really endorsing TLC resorts but I am a member and I am somewhat happy with mine so far based on what I paid and what I expect from it. It's the RCI membership I am happy with. The TLC part is just points. If you were told you could get a week in most places for 10k in points that is not true unless you book them real close to the time you use them which is not that easy. I have been a member of RCI longer than TLC. The RCI web site is a little difficult to understand but you can get some good deals, and some not so good ones. The one thing I learned is that you have to be pretty dang flexible and book early for what you want to do.The Restaurant.com card is disappointing but it can be used. Again it just takes planning. I'll bet those go unused in the vast majority of cases.I have found that you can usually find Vegas open on short notice, but you cant find anything in Washington except Chelan in the winter.Feel free to get a hold of me if you can through messaging. I don't know how to do it.You might want to try "timeshareexitteam"
+frank neef hello and thanks for your comment. My whole issue is that the sales people at tlc lied through their teeth. if they would have been honest and said exactly what it is, i would have said thank you but no. my case is at the end of the month. the problem im having is tlc is being very elusive. i have not been able to serve them yet and have paid for a company to track them and serve them but still waiting. I'm guessing they are well practiced in the art of evasion. ill keep everyone posted
Wow I am shocked me and my husband bought at TLC and this is our fourth Vacation .. I am in Orlando at the airport typing this message.. While we vacationed in Orlando we went to two presentations and nobody could beat what they gave us at TLC ...so they gave us our gifts and rushed us out... I truly feel like this has been a blessing to us so I dont understand your experience ... We have gone to Mexico (playa deal Carmen) French Lick /Vegas/ and Orlanda. 😕
If anyone would be willing to write me a letter and email it to me with a contact number for the courts that would be awesome. My email is brandonmcornell@gmail.com you can even take a picture of a written One and email it
Hi Brandon, I recently came back from Vegas and picked up one of these TLC Resort memberships. My 'great deal' was for a 10K points membership with a $4K balance, and a $399 MF. One difference is that I have a login to the www.advantageprogram.net site and not an RCI login account. I'm doing some more research regarding what is available when booking to see if my results are the same as yours. I wonder if that is due to a difference in 10K vs 20K packages. If I get some crap results, I'd be interested in your findings as it wouldn't have been what I was sold. Not even close.
wetwilly58 I'm assuming that the RCI information arrived 4 months later. Is that correct? If so, that's a long time. On the Advantageprogram.net site, it's really just a booking site and there's no reference to RCI points. Flight costs are pretty comparable to those on kayak, etc. Not looking good.
wetwilly58 yea the rci stuff came 4 months later. after i complained to them and made this video tlc offered me that advantage program and promised it would make things right. well again it was a lie there is nothing on this site that i cannot get on expedia or another site
Kristin Cy I haven't made a payment in about 2 years. They tried to send me to collections for the membership but I fought it and the collection agency decided not to collect for TLC Resort. However they have put a maintenance fee on my credit report. There's an active criminal investigation going on against TLC Resort so I'm waiting to hear back
i recently got this email. feel free to contact her I just ran across your youtube video. I am an investigator with the Nevada Attorney General’s Office and I am conducting a criminal investigation into TLC and would like to speak to you. You can reach me at 702-486-4313. Thanks.

That was going to become a scene and I think they knew it because they whisked us to the back, gave us our cash back in full and basically escorted us out the backdoor as to not make it a scene in front of the other potential victims. We were just lucky that we got a gut feeling about this shit and I am so sorry that you got stuck. This company is nothing but a fraud and the wig wearing moron is lining his pockets with innocent peoples hard earned money. Please let me know if you ever got anywhere with your lawsuit....My email is rikki88@yahoo.com.... Thank you..All we can do is share this information with each other like you did to keep others safe from these crooks!
Had a very similar experience pretty sure that it was the same gangsters working out of - The grand view resorts Las Vegas, just last week January 2017, except they were selling 'real estate ' you can't lose I was told. They didn't work of points though and Jeff our agent was quick to point out the failings of the points system, anyway we didn't buy it all sounded to good with high pressure sales, just no. We got our free show tickets noticed our free gambling vouchers were out of date and didn't get to use our buffet voucher, we paid a 50dollar deposit which we got back so we were just down vacation time... 4.5 hrs and got free show tickets; feel for you tough and hope there is some way out of it
I had the same experience. Going to Vegas. Staying at the Plaza hotel. Being talked into going into the presentation. Not wanting but falling into all the false promises.
the restaurant card. The cruises that never were given. Anyways, I have regretted this more than ever because now I'm paying for maintenance fee of a resort that I have not been too. the 20000 points that doesn't promise an all inclusive stay. I'm paying monthly payments for what? I haven't even been on a vacation. and I've been a member since September 2014.
how I wish I could relive that day and had told them to f*** Off.
I wish I knew how to get rid of this without losing anymore money.
this is bad in AUSTRALIA to
my name is natasha me and my girl got this 2 day I'm hoping this is not a rip off but it really sounds like it they made my sign a contract and saying I owe them 9000 and I put 3200 down
I need help with this company
All I can suggest is that you contact you attorney general. And Nevada's attorney general. Call and complain to as many people that will listen.
please share this video with your friends. we need to spread the message
BBB IS RATING THEM AN A+! PLEASE LET THEM KNOW THE REAL DEAL!
These people are scammers we got the same shitty giftcard and I’m glad I didn’t sign up for the timeshare , the couple at the table next to us had a rude timeshare employee who literally said “thank you for wasting my effin time!” Because they didn’t wanna sign up. We even heard another silly comment from one of their employees bragging how he has more money than god. I just wanted to get the heck outta there. We were being pressured by two people to sign up and I kept telling them no over and over. Worst experience ever.
Hi Brandon, I just purchased one on May 7th, 2015, so I haven't received any of the paperwork yet. I really thought I had made a smart decision but after watching your video, I am really upset. Please keep us updated and let us know if you are able to get out of it and if you get any of your money back. Thanks and good luck. :)
Wish I'd have seen this before I purchased at the end of May! Same company, same hotel. If you find a way out, let us know! I'll do the same! Doesn't look good, though. Are we now members for life!? Ouch!
Jay Cook yeah i know it's completely bogus. they are liars and crooks. it's looking like i may have to take them to small claims court.
I run into the same situation and now they increased my monthly payment, i have been paying for over 18 moths.
i just dont know what to do.??
I just stopped payment. the sent me to collections and I wrote the collection company explaining that what was happening was illegal. the collection company dropped the tlc account. tlc would call me and my fiance multiple times a day and even threatened to have us arrested. they are bullies . but they have stopped trying to collect. there was no property or service traded do they can't force collection
+Brandon Cornell what's the status on your case? You're like my only light of hope in this hell hole. These guys are charging us the annual fees of $600 plus the membership points of $180!! Plus the monthly.... Please tell me you're making progress.
Would you be able to send me the email you sent TLC? They have also sent us to collections.
I was just contacted by the TLC resorts company. I notified them that I will be filling a lawsuit against them next week if they do not come to an agreement. They have told me to take down my video. I will not take down what I believe to be true. It's my right as an American to rate any company. I have been wronged they lied and are not trust worthy.
Brandon Cornell I think this company is a scam to now. I got my package back in April 2015 in vegas. I tried to cancel with thin 3 days of getting it. I even reported it to my bank and had them to talk to them. Guess what tlc won.
I went thru a similar experience. This video is 4 years old but is there any help or update you can provide? I’m stuck with mine since 2012
Can you use ovations, since it's paid off?
Here we have a law enforcement officer, and a nurse getting scammed by scum of the earth in the biggest fraud ever. I hope and pray for justice, may their backs be broken and the people responsible live in misery till the day of their death or they repent for this horrible injustice.
Any updates on this? My husband I just purchased. He googled for any negative reviews but this video didn't show up.
Did you receive a copy of the contract by mail or was the Agreement signed at the presentation considered the full contract?
Jay Cook they didn't provide me with anything until 4 months later.
Jay Cook please share this information. maybe if we get enough people together we could have a class action
I'm thinking of cancelling my auto pay and if that leads to bad credit, I don't care. We had the same results, couldn't get a vacation when and where we wanted to. I keep forgetting about them, but now I need to take action as I've been wasting my money from 7/3/14 is when we bought. Didn't even get to use it . We tried searching numerous times and unavailable as usual. Let me know how's the lawsuit going. I'm in. Will email you my info. Thanks for the video.
FOUR CORNERS OF THE DOCUMENT….PAROL EVIDENCE RULE…just because you are in law enforcement does not make you knowledgeable about all things legal. You got taken for a ride and are a chump.
I won my fight.
@@live42Day congrats man. Very happy you did
I would like to ask everyone a favor that has had similar experiences. Could you please email me a letter explaining what happened to you so that I can present it to the courts. And I'll do the same for you. If we get enough people maybe we can class action them
I will. I waa almost scammed by rci earlier this month (aug. 2015). Long story short, I thought I was making a payment for like $219. They took out $1000 on my vacation! I was pissed! They are definitely fraudulent.
You can email me a letter at brandonmcornell@gmail.com my court date is end of November
Ok. I'll give my experience
what was the outcome?? i have a timeshare that is fully paid off and im trying to get rid of it but they wont let me..
Brandon's World what happened with your court
sign us up for lawsuit
Just an update to everyone. as of today I'm preparing to file a lawsuit against TLC resorts tomorrow. I have tried over and over to meet on common ground with this company. I will just have to put it into the court's hands.
I went a 6 weeks ago to tbis with a friend they told me that we both have to sign a paper for him to sell it to my friend I wasn't told anything else also told him we are not married come to find out after they been calling you for days that they put we're married on the paperwork I can prove I'm legally not married I don't know what to do that's why I had to do the same with a lawsuit
i just bought this thing yesterday
is ther any way i can cancel before they charge me
Yeah you have 5 day from the purchase date to cancel just go back to the plaza to talk with the manger or send in a letter stating that you want to cancel address should be online under the rci guidlines
thank you i sent my letter hopefully i get my money back
+Christopher Mack what do I include in my letter? I have a bunch of copies that I signed when I purchased mine and I didn't have much time to research what I was buying. Bone head move I know.
Did you get your money back? I just sent my letter today, which is in the 5 day rescission period. Was it a lot of hassle?
Omg I am so scared now I just bought it 1 day ago in Las Vegas can I send the letter so I can cancel it ??
Yes you have up to 5 Days to get that letter mailed. Make sure you send it certified return receipt
Brandon's World thank you so much sir, you just saved me from making a stupid mistake, I just signed my papers today, I’ll be counting hours to go to the post office and send off my cancellation letter. Again thank you and sorry about your bad experience. GOD bless
Have you read this reply?

I purchased my property from TSL in Las Vegas years ago for $4000. I use the snot out of it, and I love it. I have never been to my home resort, but I have been SEVERAL other places. You have to be flexible and creative, but you can make it work. Additionally, there are often last minute deals and sales through RCI. I stayed in a one bedroom in Pinetop, AZ for a week in late May for $168.00 and no points on one of the RCI sales. But, I spent a lot of time studying RCI before I took a vacation.
hi, if anyone knows an address for this company that may be accurate please let me know, i am moving forward with a lawsuit but their address is an issue.
+Ahsaki Castro I too am trying to find this info. I'm trying to find their board of directors, I assume if we blow up their email and snail mail with info from how we were scammed, they might get sick of us, enough to do something for us? I have no other ideas.
+Ahsaki Castro - Main office address is 200-101 Convention Centre Drive, Las Vegas, NV, 89109
You should be contacting these people to see if you can get a top action lawsuit. Here's the website : topclassactions.com/. If you can do this I want to be apart of this lawsuit. Hope this helps.
UPDATE!!!!

Hi brandon, i emailed you on this entire situation, hope to hear back from you soon.
So How is your case going?I am not really endorsing TLC resorts but I am a member and I am somewhat happy with mine so far based on what I paid and what I expect from it. It's the RCI membership I am happy with. The TLC part is just points. If you were told you could get a week in most places for 10k in points that is not true unless you book them real close to the time you use them which is not that easy. I have been a member of RCI longer than TLC. The RCI web site is a little difficult to understand but you can get some good deals, and some not so good ones. The one thing I learned is that you have to be pretty dang flexible and book early for what you want to do.The Restaurant.com card is disappointing but it can be used. Again it just takes planning. I'll bet those go unused in the vast majority of cases.I have found that you can usually find Vegas open on short notice, but you cant find anything in Washington except Chelan in the winter.Feel free to get a hold of me if you can through messaging. I don't know how to do it.You might want to try "timeshareexitteam"

hello and thanks for your comment. My whole issue is that the sales people at tlc lied through their teeth. if they would have been honest and said exactly what it is, i would have said thank you but no. my case is at the end of the month. the problem im having is tlc is being very elusive. i have not been able to serve them yet and have paid for a company to track them and serve them but still waiting. I'm guessing they are well practiced in the art of evasion. ill keep everyone posted
Wow I am shocked me and my husband bought at TLC and this is our fourth Vacation .. I am in Orlando at the airport typing this message.. While we vacationed in Orlando we went to two presentations and nobody could beat what they gave us at TLC ...so they gave us our gifts and rushed us out... I truly feel like this has been a blessing to us so I dont understand your experience ... We have gone to Mexico (playa deal Carmen) French Lick /Vegas/ and Orlanda. 😕
+C Bailey lol...not true
+C Bailey sounds like a company man to me LOL
If anyone would be willing to write me a letter and email it to me with a contact number for the courts that would be awesome. My email is brandonmcornell@gmail.com you can even take a picture of a written One and email it
you may get with me any time at my email for more info tlc is a scam people you need to wake up
Hey Brandon if you need a letter I'm willing to write you one. let me know where to contact you. I hope it helps!
+Eliz V thats great if you could mail it to 1704 e boone ave spokane wa 99202
that would be appreciated
thanks for sharing this
Hi Brandon, I recently came back from Vegas and picked up one of these TLC Resort memberships. My 'great deal' was for a 10K points membership with a $4K balance, and a $399 MF. One difference is that I have a login to the www.advantageprogram.net site and not an RCI login account.
I'm doing some more research regarding what is available when booking to see if my results are the same as yours. I wonder if that is due to a difference in 10K vs 20K packages. If I get some crap results, I'd be interested in your findings as it wouldn't have been what I was sold. Not even close.
wetwilly58 I'm assuming that the RCI information arrived 4 months later. Is that correct? If so, that's a long time. On the Advantageprogram.net site, it's really just a booking site and there's no reference to RCI points. Flight costs are pretty comparable to those on kayak, etc. Not looking good.
wetwilly58
yea the rci stuff came 4 months later. after i complained to them and made this video tlc offered me that advantage program and promised it would make things right. well again it was a lie there is nothing on this site that i cannot get on expedia or another site
Hi bro, have you terminated your contract? Are u still paying the maintenance fee or hoa until now?
Kristin Cy I haven't made a payment in about 2 years. They tried to send me to collections for the membership but I fought it and the collection agency decided not to collect for TLC Resort. However they have put a maintenance fee on my credit report. There's an active criminal investigation going on against TLC Resort so I'm waiting to hear back
Did you get your deposit back ?
No I lost everything I had paid.
You did get scammed
I believe they scammed me. I was never able to use anything. After much fighting I was able to get the contract ended.
Brandon, please check your Facebook notifications under Other. We should discuss.
i recently got this email. feel free to contact her

here's an update of my situation
th-cam.com/video/Z6YoYDdakaU/w-d-xo.html
I know this video is old, but my wife and I are in the same situation with TLC. Does anyone have any advice on how to get out of this disaster? We have stopped payment as of today. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Probably have bad credit due to it so just ride it out..tell them no more money coming so its whatever.
I had the same experience. Going to Vegas. Staying at the Plaza hotel. Being talked into going into the presentation. Not wanting but falling into all the false promises.
the restaurant card. The cruises that never were given. Anyways, I have regretted this more than ever because now I'm paying for maintenance fee of a resort that I have not been too. the 20000 points that doesn't promise an all inclusive stay.

how I wish I could relive that day and had told them to f*** Off.
I wish I knew how to get rid of this without losing anymore money.
We all need to organize. If nothing else we need to spread the word so that others are not victimized
I think about that too, reliving the day and walking away
Goodness Gracious! Any update on this... How much does it actually cost in legal fees??
