Professional Timeshare Services

A class-action suit was filed in San Francisco last Thursday claiming Shell Vacations charged thousands of dollars for “points” sold on Ebay for $1.
Shell Vacations Club, which has resorts all over the United States and Canada, was charged with false advertising and scamming consumers.They claimed timeshares were purchased at a “fixed cost,” there were “thousands of dollars in hidden fees” and “price increases.”

Plaintiffs purchased 2,500 points they thought they could use towards vacations all over the United States at the many SVC resorts, at a price of $14,224. They then found Ebay links to 9,700 points for $1.

Upon further internet research, a complaint from a consumer not familiar with the case read: “In the next 10 years we will be paying $50,000 to go on vacation 10 times, and that only covers the condo, not airfare, etc,” one man wrote on an online complaint forum, according to the complaint. “How is that a great investment?” Another complaint cited “”one unpleasant surprise after another” and “many lies and conveniently concealed information.”

The plaintiffs seek damages for breach of contract, breach of faith, fraud, false promises deceptive business practices and negligent misrepresentation.

Once again I was doing my research online and have found yet another puzzling issue with The Owners’ Advocate. Why would The Owner’s Advocate need to create another company named Professional Timeshare Services? TOA has been mysterious in many of their actions since their inception. They have used alias’ and fake names, a possible false location i.e. Santa Barbara, CA. Another area where they show a lack of integrity in the articles written by Joanna Bond of a ficticious TAG.

My focus is and always will be the welfare of timeshare owners who have been lied to, misrepresented, and who have been victims of fraud. It has always appeared that TOA has one goal in mind and that is to make as much money as possible by any means possible. The proof about alias’ is on TOA’s website. When you click on industry news you will see one article that Joanna whote that references Scott Davidson who’s real name is the one and only David Humphrey. It is just those little things that stand out, along with their new company.

My question is why do they need to start another company that does exactly what they do? They probably did not anticipate anyone to realize it was the same company, but all I had to do is look at the location of both companies and they are in the same physical building with different suite numbers. It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out that they are the same company.  So, back to the origional question, if TOA is the only consumer advocacy company that has done what they have for thier owners like Mr. Humphrey’s says, then why the new company? Is there a problem that we are not aware of?

Here are some other questions that one might want to ask before using Professional Timeshare Services. Who are they? Why do they not have anyone’s full name listed on their site? Where are the testimonials? Have they even had any clients yet? Like TOA, Professional Timeshare Services is not listed with the BBB. TOA felt that the BBB was not fair in their treatment of them and have since boycotted the BBB and their years of experience in the field of protecting consumers.

As always, I welcome any repsonse from either company. This observation was done soley from internet research and I have not spoken to anyone from either company. I welcome both companies to respond and hopefully prove me wrong.
