We purchased a timeshare w/ Westgate in Gatlinburg, TN 3/2010. Then 11/2020, after frustrations w/ WG & personal reasons, we tried to Deed Back 2 timeshares. All mortgages paid off & maintenance fees were never late. We were denied. In communication w/ WG it was mentioned that the "banking" information was in our Public Offering Statement. We then discovered we didn't receive the POS in paper form, even though we signed the Receipt for Timeshare Documents requesting the paper form. The CD-ROMs only had the POS for WG of Park City, UT (not Gatlinburg) & the amendments were from 2006. We had multiple transactions with WG yet never received the correct POS in those transactions. I have filed with the BBB, but WG continues to claim our concerns are "time-barred". However, a clear case of fraud, deception, or concealment, for instance, where the plaintiff is misled into believing that the wrongful act did not occur cancels out any claim to "time-barred". Also, the statute of limitations does not begin to run until the plaintiff reasonably should have discovered that he or she has a claim. This equitable doctrine is called the "discovery rule." We did not discover that we didn't have the correct documents until 11/2020. There are many lawsuits involving hundreds of owners, regarding Wg & deceit (Hambacker, Moore, Overton, Sparks). These Lawsuits mention deception that occurred in a "standard practice" way.
