Complaint Resolution Index (CRI)

Complaint Resolution Index (CRI) Explained The Complaint Resolution Index (CRI) is an indicator on how responsive a company is in addressing and resolving customer complaints brought to their attention by BCA. If they are considering doing business with the company, consumers can use this indicator to forecast the likelihood of having their issues addressed if a problem arises. CRI measures the company's customer satisfaction abilities through BCA’s complaint mediation process.

A variety of factors are considered when calculating CRI. This includes how quickly a company responds to complaints, the number of complaints against a company, whether the company addressed complaint allegations, and the outcome of the complaints. CRI is just a subset of the overall rating for the company. Consumers are encouraged to take into consideration the company's CRI, their overall BCA letter rating and other relevant information about the company so they can make a well-informed purchasing decision.

BCA's Summary and Analysis:

Complainants allege deceptive marketing practices in connection with mailed solicitation offers to attend timeshare seminars or that timeshare purchase contracts are misleading confusing or verbally misrepresented by salespersons. ~~Some customers complain they receive direct mail solicitations near birthdays or anniversary dates implying they are eligible to receive 2 free airline tickets to Hawaii or Las Vegas all accommodations paid in celebration of the occasion. Complainants allege the offer is conditional based on their income and attendance at a 90 minute timeshare presentation or contain various other restrictions not clearly disclosed on the original mailer. After attending the presentation complainants report after repeated attempts they are unable to schedule travel dates and learn they will be responsible for various previously undisclosed taxes and processing fees. ~~Complaints concerning timeshare purchase contracts allege cancellation requests are not acknowledged buyers are unable to schedule vacations after repeated attempts due to lack of vacancies in their desired resort or that resort availability conditions of the offer or cancellation and refund policies were misrepresented at the time of the sale. ~~The company addresses complaints regarding deceptive mailers by offering explanations or clarifications of the offer or by disagreeing the mailers are deceptive. Complaints concerning inability to use promotional vacation certificates are generally addressed by offers to assist the complainant in making travel arrangements or providing clarification on the terms of their travel certificates. ~~The company responds to complaints concerning timeshare purchase contracts by advising complainants that all paperwork concerning their sales transaction was presented at the time of the sale. Most refund requests are denied based on the requests being received past the 7 days allowed in the contract.

Customer Complaint

1/30/2025

I'm reaching out to file a complaint about the ongoing issues we've had with our timeshare, particularly in dealing with Richard Sargent. Despite repeatedly asking to cancel, our concerns have been brushed aside, which makes it feel like no one is really listening to us. This timeshare has become a huge financial burden for us, with rising maintenance fees and limited booking options. Instead of addressing these concerns, Mr. Sargent keeps pushing us to stay with the property, focusing on retention rather than actually helping us resolve our issues. We've been clear: the timeshare no longer works for us financially or personally. It's frustrating that instead of support or a meaningful conversation, we're met with pressure to stick with something that no longer fits our needs. We're asking the BCA to look into these practices, as they seem to disregard consumer rights. We'd really appreciate your help in getting to a fair resolution and making sure others don't go through the same struggle. Resolution Sought Immediate cancellation

The consumer purchased a time share membership from the Developer and signed a legally binding contract. We have responded to their concerns in writing three times. Please understand that the Developer cannot simply cancel or forgive outstanding debt. If they are unable or unwilling to fulfil their financial obligations, the loan will move forward to the collection and forfeiture process.
