Re: Ripoff - Marriott Vacation Club Destinations Program - New Point System (by Mike S.):

Thanks to all who posted information re: the Destinations Program-- my wife and I are owners since 2009 in the Exchange Program-- very satisfied. Question- How is it that this program launched 2 years ago and the salesteam at Marriott is still giving misleading inaccurate information on how the exchange program works vs the Destination Points Program? We were literally told by the sales agent that the points are combined--no mention of different banks and how that effects future reservations.

After a few days of research, we went back to the sales office where we met with a Sales Manager who stated that the sales rep was not correct in how the information was presented.

We did not purchase the new program.

Buyers beware.
