It's a timeshare company and how underhand to say you have won a competition but then tell you you have to pay a fee before you can have it!

you pay to trial their services. you get a good quality holiday in exchange a small amount of money. A scam is where you give money and don't recieve anything in exchange. you get a holiday so how is it a scam. my family have been going on timeshares long enough to know about them.

From the feedback that I have seen you are about one of the only people that says the accommodation is good. When googling there are a huge amount of posts which are not complimentary about the accommodation or resorts!

Hi
Need some advice.

I entered a lot of competitions last week cos my car broke down and i could not do what i needed to do. So i won a CD which is really good, however today i have received a letter from this organization telling me i have won a membership for holidays until the year 2059 and all i have to do is pay £370 for the first year for the holiday i choose to take and £200 and something for each following year for the holiday i want.

This is for four people on a seven night basis. I did not think to ask if flights were included however when i phoned and asked to speak to the person named in previous posts i was assured that i had 'won' a membership.

Has anybody out there 'won' a membership before - and can anyone shed any light as to whether or not this is too good to be true - so to speak.

On the face of it - it looks ok however i have yet to see any paperwork, be asked to sign anything etc. etc. and on consulting my mother who i would describe as 'wise' her response is something i would probably have to think twice about printing on here !! Help please if you can. Thank you very much.

Hi
I also won a lifetime membership to Clubseasons to the value of £3,750 and quickly learned that it was timeshare . I don’t think that’s its illegal as they are offering a lifetimes subscription for the money , although that seems steep. Still its up to the individual as to how they see this as a prize, if you can call it that as they are asking for yearly service payments. I think if you work to the rule, that if you win a prize its free, with everything included . thereby you cant really go wrong

Hi
First post so please be nice.
Received our 'won a prize to the value of £3750' today - children unfortunately very excited - then I found this thread as I had an idea it was timeshare - what a shame. I am awaiting them to return my phone call. Also mentions a lovely brunch with VIP parking at Sandown Park Racecourse - anyone going to that?
Thanks

I don't think it is a scam as such but it's not a prize either...just crafty advertising. I've had two of these letters now (recorded delivery) and I binned them both. I guess some people have had a holiday out of this but it will certainly cost you money.

Watch out for Club La Costa too. Same kind of thing except they ring you.
