RCI Timeshare Cancellation

For the average person, timeshares are confusing. The timeshare industry is intentionally complicated to keep owners from truly understanding their situation and what they are facing. If you have been searching for a way to cancel your RCI timeshare, there is already some misunderstanding going on, and that problem may be making your situation worse.

On this page, I am to clear everything up so you can understand exactly what situation you are in and how to move forward. In the end, your goal is likely to simply move on from the timeshare lifestyle so you can save money and bring back some flexibility into your travel experiences. You should have a much better understanding of what is in front of you by the time you make it to the end of this page.

What is RCI?

So, if you are trying to find a way to cancel an RCI timeshare, we need to stop right there and back up for a moment. You aren’t going to be able to cancel an RCI timeshare because RCI is not a timeshare company. You don’t own an RCI timeshare and neither does anyone else.

Rather than being a timeshare company, RCI is a timeshare vacation exchange network. That’s an important distinction. What they do is provide a way for timeshare owners to trade stays in various locations around the globe. For example, if you own a timeshare somewhere on a beach but would like to take a trip to a large casino property, you might use RCI to make that exchange and have a different type of vacation.

So, what you are going to need to do next is figure out who you own a timeshare with and how you can contact that company directly. Those are the people that you will need to be dealing with on this matter, not RCI. Even if you have used RCI previously to trade timeshare vacations with other owners, that’s not relevant to this situation. Figure out which timeshare company you are an owner with and start the process of trying to cancel from that point.

See if You Can Give Your Timeshare Back

Now that we know that RCI is not actually a timeshare company, you can get down to the business of working on canceling your timeshare with the correct party. And, that is exactly where I suggest you start – with the company that sold the timeshare in the first place. While timeshares don’t have a great reputation for helping owners, you don’t want to miss out on a good opportunity if one is available. So, reach out today and ask them about something called a “deed back” program (they might have a different name, but they’ll know what you are talking about).

As the name suggests, this is a program where the timeshare company will simply take back your deed and let you walk away. If that sounds too good to be true, it’s because it’s not always available and might not be an option in your case – but you want to ask just to make sure. If you are given this option when you ask, take advantage of it right away before the offer disappears.

Why would a timeshare let you just give them the deed and walk away? Remember, they want to be able to sell as many timeshares as possible to make money, and they can only sell so many timeshares per unit. So, when one owner gives one back, it can be sold to a new owner. This is a way for them to generate cash flow and it helps them to avoid the situation of having too many owners who are disgruntled, falling behind on payments, and having to go into the collections process. All you have to do is reach out and ask for this kind of help to see what they say. Don’t be too discouraged if they don’t offer you something right now – there might be a chance that it will become available later. Try to check in from time to time and hopefully you’ll get good news before too long.

Selling Timeshares Can Be an Option

Another way you might be able to get out of this timeshare that you no longer want to own is by selling it. You will need to know exactly what you own, of course, to put up an accurate listing and complete the deal. So, get all of those details straightened out first and then find places online to list the timeshare for sale.

The positive side of this option is that you could potentially get a little money back out of your timeshare when you sell it – and you could be free of the maintenance fees and other obligations that you have been carrying to this point. A successful sale will feel like a weight off of your shoulders and your future as far as finances and vacations are concerned will seem more open and optimistic than it has in years.

What’s the downside here? Selling a timeshare can be difficult due to the lack of demand. There are plenty of willing sellers in the market, but a limited number of buyers, so the market is out of balance and the would-be buyers have all the power. You’ll need to be very patient if you hope to sell your timeshare and you probably shouldn’t count on getting much money from it in the end. Any kind of completed sale can be seen as a success no matter the financial terms involved.

Working with a Timeshare Exit Company is Attractive

Once you have gone through the work of figuring out which timeshare company you are dealing with, and trying to cancel with various other methods, you might feel like you have reached a dead end. When that happens, and you aren’t really sure what path to take next, consider reaching out to a good timeshare exit company to get help.

An exit company is desirable because they will have experience working in this field and will know what tends to work and what doesn’t. You can go over with them what you have tried so far and what has happened as a result of those efforts. It’s not guaranteed that they’ll be able to get you out of your timeshare right away, of course, but they will get to work on the project immediately and will hopefully be able to make progress in the near future.

You have to protect yourself when working with an exit company to make sure you don’t get taken advantage of and wind up in an even worse position. That means asking about the use of escrow services to hold the money that you are going to pay the exit company. They shouldn’t just get all of your money right away – that will take away their motivation to work and they might not end up doing anything at all. Work with exit companies that are willing to use escrow accounts and the chances of success will go way up.

Frequently Asked Questions

I’ve been trying to clear up as many things as possible about timeshare ownership and cancellation on this page, but there is always more to know. Check out these FAQs for additional information.

Q: What is an RCI timeshare?

A: As we’ve discussed above, RCI is not a timeshare, but rather an exchange network for timeshare owners to trade travel at one location for travel at another. You won’t need to work on canceling an RCI timeshare, but rather figuring out what timeshare you own and then trying to cancel that one.

Q: Can an RCI timeshare be sold?

A: There are no RCI timeshares, but yes, all types of other timeshares can be sold on the open market if you are able to find a willing buyer. This is one of many ways to attempt to get out of your timeshare.

Q: Is it possible to leave a timeshare?

A: You don’t want to try to just leave a timeshare without working with the developer to leave or finding someone to buy it from you. Stopping the payments on your timeshare can lead to financial and even legal trouble later on. Be patient and execute this exit properly so you don’t have to look back later with regrets.
