Misrepresentation and false statements!
In May, 2007, we vacationed at the Sunset Lagoon, Cancun. While there, we attended a supposedly 90 minute tour which turned into over 5 hours. We were presented with an attractive and enticing timeshare purchase program, along with a guaranteed rental program of our unused weeks to alleviate fees. After entering into the contract, we questioned our sales agent each day of the rental program validity and were continuously assured of its activity. On the 5th day, we went to the office, again to question the program and were unable to discuss with anyone. Upon our return home, we later learned, through questioning Alicia, their customer representative, that there was no rental program. We then requested cancellation and were denied. We appealed to our Visa who then went to Visa International who denied our appeal based on the written contract only. We then heard from Hector, Sunset's attorney, with threats of court action. He then offered a new package. When I requested everything in writing and asked questions, he reneged on the latest offer. In August, R. Silva contacted us and said she was working on our case. We never heard back. In December, we filed a complaint with Profeco and are awaiting response. This episode has tainted the timeshare program and our interest in returning to Cancun or recommending Cancun to anyone we may encounter. There are hundreds of complaints on various websites citing Sunset Royal, Royal Sunset, Sunset Lagoon. If anyone has any successful, please contact the rest of us victims so we might follow. Thanks,
