Has anyone joined or heard of the holiday imporium(spain holiday club)?

Question

we went to a presentation in sapin (used to be timeshare ,now called holiday clubs) and turned it down after 3 hours £6000.

2 months later at home got a phone call saying we won membership and guess what we only now have to pay £300

has anyone any knowledge about this company and how can i find out if its really ok

Answer 1

Don't do it.. all time share companies are created equal..if you want to have holidays in Spain, it is cheaper just to buy your flight and book accomdation separately.. there are tons of websites that do holiday rentals, and you don't have to lock yourself in or lay out a ton of cash.. here is one website that might help if you are looking to rent..it is reputable and the houses are as nice as they look in the pictures..

Beware, if something is for free or you have won something then it´s going to cost you in the long run. Timeshares aren´t what they seem and neither is anything else that resembles it. Keep your money in your pocket and each year go to a different place for a holiday. Owning timeshare, you actually own nothing,  just the right to be there on a certain date.

Sounds like a typical scam to me, too.  The timeshares pull this sort of stuff in the US all the time.  They want to get you in the door to try one more time to hard-sell you.

If timeshare isn't right for you, it isn't right for you.  (some folks LOVE it).

Did they charge you 6000 pounds to take their tour?  OMG!  never heard of that!

And those reduced cost/change locations, etc., NEVER seem to work out as you want them to...can't get the location you want, can't get the dates you want, you have to wait until the last second before you know that you have anything.  Can't plan your holiday.  I agree with the poster who said to plan it yourself.  It's way fun, and you can pretend you're the travel agent, just google what you want - location, type, dates, plan it yourself.
