Been cold called,won a holiday and you were not aware you had entered a competition. Its time to name and shame these companies to save other people being misled. Share your experiences here. Its most likely you will end up at a timeshare presentation, or a new kind of promotion is fractional ownership of a property, yacht or motorhome.Beware you will be tied in and have to pay annual maintenace fees.

my mum and dad done this, although they were aware it was timeshares etc, but they got a cheap holiday out of it for them and thier friends, they had to attend a presentation here and one whilst they were abroad for an hour or so, yes they did get the hard sell but my parents dont mind saying no. so they had a good time from it but i wouldnt recommend it especially if your easily intimadated, i couldnt do it and im quite strong minded.now proud mum to 3 handsome boys :j latest one born 10/10/11:j0

It's not something I would entertain.
I could be strong-minded enough but I just wouldn't be all that relaxed if I was being perpetually hassled. It kind of defeats the object of having a holiday.0
