Re: R&R, VSI, and EPS (by John M.):

Gracie,

What points are with VSI? Where did they come from? How did they get there? The only way I have seen VSI operate is to have you tell your home resort that you are going there for a specific week. They send you a confirmation, which you have to send to VSI. Once VSI finds someone to take that week, they send you that person's info and you have to call your home resort and tell them that you will be having a Guest use the week that you got the confirmation for.

When you want to use you points, you have to notify VSI where you would like to go. They will then send you a list of resorts available to you in that area. You tell them where you want to go, and they will notify the owner of that week who then has to notify their home resort that you will be the Guest for their week.

None of this is on line. You must do it all via phone, mail, or email. There is no place you can go to see what is available to "point" into, or even how many points you have banked with VSI.

BTW, do not tell your home resort what you are doing. Many of them would notify you that this approach is in violation of your owners agreement.

AND, how did EPS tell you they would get the points from you in order to buy them from you?
