Transfer America Reviews
Timeshare fraud
Timeshare Relief company "Transfer America" has taken $2225 to transfer my name off of timeshare title to Kuhio Banyon, Hawaii. They were paid 3/8/2011. My name is still on the title. They have been slow to pay the maintenance fees during the title transfer process, and now I am paying the maintenance fees directly to the Resort to avoid being sent to collections, and my credit ruined. They make vague promises like: The paper-work has been received by the transfer company and it should only take a little longer to get the documents filed. They will stop taking your calls and send you to voice mail if you try and press them to speak to a supervisor. Don't do business with these crooks.

Agarwal packers cheated with me
Why we go with reputed packers and movers instead of cheap government transport service..so that we can get our essentials to out destination quickly and in good shape. But last year I parceled my bike with Agwarwal packers and moves from Pune to New Delhi. My bike was received 3 days later to my destination and it was damaged badly. Handle was totally bent. Scratches on fuel tank and front lights. I asked to get it repair but no body (not from the insurance desk) helped me. Later I got it repaired of my own. They mother *** was treating me like ***. Please never go with them.

WHOA! Don't jump into bed with these folks. We attended a sales seminar in May 2010 and 23 months later we still have not rid ourselves of our timeshare. We paid almost $4,000.00 up front to get the job done. Transfer America (TA) promised to have the property out of our names within 150 days maximum, but after a lot of promises to date nothing has been done. They TA are very good sales people and come across as caring credible individuuals, but their message is always urgent. We have done everything TA has requested and I am sure we have truly been scammed. I wish I had read entries on this site before jumping into this joke. Beware, beware.

Update by user Aug 14, 2012

Original review posted by user Jul 14, 2012
We have signed with Transfer America in November 2010. Now 18 months later our time share is still on our name. They have changed the title company several times and every requested bunch of documents. They have not paid maintenance fee and now, the y claim they are ready to transfer out time share if we pay it. They clearly state on the contract and their web. site, that they are responsible for all fees without exceptions as a marketing tool, and do not stand to the promises. I was recommended to write to Attorney General and Congressman, and will do so. it is a complete scam, be aware of it!!!.

We signed in to Transfer on the Spot,Transfer America in Nov 2010, now its late April 2012 and I still own the timeshare and the taxs have not been paid for the year. When I call I get the run around not they tell me the resort wouldn't ok the transfer. NOW what hows tending the bar and whats in the future? Will this sale and transfer ever happen? There are alot of unanswerd questions and alot of people on he other end of the phone with no anwers. I have been consulting lawyers for next best action to resolve this. All of them sugested to contact the Attorney General. Working on that also. Hope to see an end to this some day. April 26,2012 Dana

Great North Transfer, offered a way out of my timeshare
They want me to attend a presentation to get out of my timeshare. Any advice about them would be greatly appreciated. I am in Canada. I have signed up for a presentation In Victoria so they can tell me how they will get rid of my timeshare. There is no cost involved for the presentation, but am I looking at huge costs to get the job done. Is this a ligitimate company or are they just some more scam artists from the long list of timeshare relief scammers. Can someone who has dealt with this com[pany or any of their affiliates enlighten me here. Every site I seem to check out is actually hosted by the company.

SCAM ALERT!! Transfer America is a total scam.
SCAM ALERT!! Transfer America charged us $2500 and did not do anything. It has been over a month. They basically just ignore our calls and emails. John R. Herrera and Sharon Reynolds were the sales person we spoke to. Once they charged on our credit card, they disappeared. We had called and left messages numbers of time. They do not response. They are liars!!! They failed to transfer our timeshare, when we asked for a refund. They became so rude and tried to arguing with us. Make sure you read all the reviews the internet. There are many complains about Transfer America. BEWARE Transfer America is a scam!!!

Transfer America Timeshare SCAM / RIP-OFF!
Transfer America AKA Timeshare Relief AKA Transfer Smart is a complete and total scam. First of all its a shell company for timeshare relief who bilks people out of up to $4000 to "get rid of" their timeshare. Yeah they CHARGE people to take their timeshare. David MacMillan owns this company as well as 3 or 4 other brands that all do the exact same thing. They run them out a crummy little office in Torrance california. They need all the brands to hide who they are because once people have heard of one of their companies they want nothing to do with them and the complaints and ripoffs get reported online so they just keeping making up more brands. They make it unfair to the consumer to even research if they are reputable or not as they put badges on their site saying they are in INC 500 but if you check INC 500 they aren't listed. Same with saying they are listed with D&B and LAs top 100. Shell game scams designed to trick you into handing over your hard earned money and your timeshare! They pay huge sums to the BBB to keep their ratings up. If you look at their primary brand they have over 60 complaints and the attorney general of Vermont just fined them big time for defrauding people into believing they could get a huge tax right-off if they paid them to take their timeshare. BEWARE Transfer America is a scam to take your money and your timeshare!

Transfer America
:) An update! After complaining about Transfer America to BBB, CA Attorney General, LA County Department of Consumer Affairs, CA Department of Real Estate, my local FL Attorney General and finally Federal Trade Commission, after writing a letter to President of Transfer America with no response by the way, I have received a call and later e-mail from Customer Service Manager of Transfer America advising me that my maintenance fee with all late and other charges had been paid.
The timeshare is still not transferred but I intend to follow it through.
