Do you have a loan or mortgage owing on it? Are the maintenance fees up to date? If not, then you will have a hard time getting rid of it.

Have you checked out Wyndham's Ovation program where they are taking back a select, limited number of units that are paid off and maintenance fees up to date? More information can be found in the pinned thread under timeshare companies.

Just do not go paying any company, charity, or law firm that claims it can "cancel" your timeshare.

Wyndham has a relatively new program called "Wyndham Cares." It is mostly in response to the so-called cancellation firms who have caused Wyndham much annoyance. You can search the term "Wyndham Cares" to find their link. They are supposedly trying to help people who have had life-changing events and can no longer afford their timeshare. I have no real idea if Wyndham really does care, but you could try the website. Good luck.

Sir, you can just walk away from it. A Mexican right to use is no ownership. I have worked in Mexico for many years doing contracts, and there are no legal obligations on your part as a foreigner. They CANNOT affect your credit from a purchase Mexico.

Best of luck.

Mexico is not the U.S. There is only a right to use, and therefore, they can sell as many weeks as people will buy. I have worked there in sales and marketing for many years.

You can simply walk away and there is nothing they or will do. They CANNOT affect your U.S. credit.

Best of luck!

What is your "bad situation"? You might not necessarily need the head boss.
