I was reading a post where someone mentioned an over-the-top hard sell in a DVC tour. We have considered doing a DVC tour but always end up declining. Has anyone experienced what they considered to be an excessive hard sell during a tour?
You should have reported him to the manager right away. That is not how they are supposed to operate.We had rented points at SSR and were doing a resort day in 2016 so we thought we’d do a tour. We’ve casually thought about DVC for years but weren’t sure if it was right for us.
I wish I remembered the CMs name because when I raised concerns about fit based on our travel style, he spoke down to my husband and I and basically implied we didn’t know how to vacation. It was honestly very awkward.
He then pushed for us to sign and commit right then and there, which I found hysterical. When we got home, both my husband and myself received multiple calls and voicemails. It was honestly way too much and a real turnoff - we should’ve just hung out at the pool, since it was our last trip before our toddler was born, and we won’t get much down time now for at least a few years
We still get mail from DVC, though, including a pin code to do a 20-minute “phone tour” for a $25 gift card. My husband did the call, and we put our $25 toward our next trip. He said the call was actually much shorter
