5000 Marriott Points for a 30 minute Online Timeshare Presentation

September 20, 2010 - Rick

Post it on the blog!

I found it myself and just created a new thread on Flyertalk as well!

Dan, your loyal reader and frequent contributor…

My Flyertalk post:
Hey all.

Marriott Vacation Club USA is currently offering 5000 MR points for doing a 30 minute online timeshare presentation. You have to make an appointment through this link:
https://www.marriottvacationclub.com/landing/presentation/signup.shtml

(you may have to copy and paste)

Actually, I found this link on Friday and talked to a live Marriott Vacation Club agent on the phone today for 30 minutes. It was a soft
sell; she just emailed me more information after our conversation and asked that I contact her if I had any questions or interest.

Although it says that the presentation is online, my entire presentation was on the phone. Maybe that’s because she knew I was
already a member of Marriott Vacation Club Asia-Pacific and so she didn’t need to show me the properties on the Internet?

Points post 6 to 8 weeks later. Really easy 5000 points here.

Thanks Dan. Frugal Travel Guy of the Day

TrueCredit site shows a 7 day free trial and don't forget to check the box for the free 7 day free trial offer on the first page under your birthday

Rick…a word of advice on this service as I also subscribe to it….when the trial nears, call them to cancel, and tell them Chase offers the same service for 9.95/mth. They will gladly match it!!
Your credit card will be billed 9.95 vs 14.95.

Hi Rick, Interesting that your link does not show a free 30 days when you get to the Truecredit site. Their normal signup has a box for a free 7 day report. I signed up via your link and they said I did not have a free report. Had to speak to a supervisor to get a credit to my credit card. Thanks for all you help.

I used to use truecredit (3+yrs), but recently switched. I didnt like the fact that they dont have a fico simulator. For someone that also likes to churn credit cards and likes to maximize his credit score, the simulator feature is a key. I did my research and found creditkeeper.com $9.99/month plus the fico simulator.

Thanks again FTG for all the great posts and the great tips. I love all the extra strawood points!!

Ozaer: Thanks for the tip.

Anon: If you read the terms and conditions it states very clearly that you will not b ebilled for thirty days and can cancel at any time. If you have not canceled within 30 days they will begin billing you. Read the Terms and Conditions.

FWIW, I joined through the link and was billed immediately.

I'd call immediately and clarify the offer

from previous comment "FWIW, I joined through the link and was billed immediately."

Called to cancel and they applied a credit (on the same day). Now I'm good for a month of free service. Thanks for the info

I would be leery of an these "scores" the only score that really matters is the official FICO score, by Fair Isaac.
