Whilst staying at a Heritage Resort in Spain, we were approached by their manager to see if we wanted to dispose of our timeshare and offered a way to do so. It involved paying a lump sum and in return, they took our timeshare (2 wks in Tenerife) so we had no further responsibility and gave us a 3 year introductory membership into the Heritage Resort Club with the promise of a holiday each year at a one of their resorts and at the end of the 3 years we can walk away knowing that we have no further responsibility to our timeshare and no requirement to join their club. I am concerned this may be a scam. Do you have any thoughts on this?

My husband and I bought one week of timeshare 1999 and another week at the same resort a few years later at Bahia Blanca Gran Caneria. We continued with maintenance payments till his death in 2004 I continued for a while then misguidedly tried ‘Sell my timeshare’ in 2006. They are under investigation by police and I got my £6000 back via sect 75 with Nat West about 2017. I used Preteorian Legal to get out of the annual maintenance contract as they broke off their contract with Bahia Blanca via a Tenerife address who owned the site.
However the initial outlay of £12,000 I am still out of pocket. As I am now 67 years old this money would now be useful to me. I was informed last year the company we bought our first year with at Bahia Blanca sold the business on 2000 and we had no new contract with the new owners for maintenance but we paid it never the less
