Absolutly Heart Broken!

Of course it's a scam.
The letter makes you believe you have won something better than you have so it's deliberately misleading.
That, to me, is a scam.

Sorry to hear that. I know how you feel, my first "proper" win was this! It's absolutely gutting when you realise it isn't a win.

Hope the comping fairy brings you something great very soon!

I was another "Lucky Winner" with Myseasonsholidays.com and got a letter telling me I had won a prize worth £3750(spooky) as this seems to be the same as everyone else.
I phoned to confirm & they asked to confirm my address and whether I was a home owner.Then the girl gave me the news about paying for travel,maintenance fees, which would be cut by a third to £299 p.a.. for the 1st year then £350 per year after wards.
I was so excited like I,m sure everyone who gets a letter like this on their doormat usually would be.
They said that I won through the Travel Channel website which did not arouse my suspicions because I do the competitions all the time.
Ah well back to dreaming of holidays again.Thanks to all the posters for the info supplied as I was tempted to go ahead if it wasn't for your experiences.

I had one too! Went straight in the bin. OH found out it was a timeshare scam. Lucky escape I think. Hope graphicuk has a very big very genuine win very soon!

I've 'won' this comp once before in the past (quite a while ago now) and smelt a rat, which was confirmed by researching other wins like this.

If I smell a possible timeshare comp now, I always put that I'm a single person in rented accommodation, as I know a genuine promoter will still award me the prize and this will put off the dodgy ones. What business is it of their's anyway! Genuine prizes are normally open to all.

This was my first 'proper' prize when I started comping about a year ago, all the lovely mse people warned me off, its a timeshare thing, otherwise I wouldnt have known what it was, stick with the comping, hopefully soon you'll win something that you will actually be happy with:)
