Ruralcarrier,
I believe you are right and while there has been a lot of idle promises regarding timeshare legislation, to date I haven't heard of any being enacted.
Many of us do have clauses in our original sales contracts regarding the maximum annual amount of permitted increases but in too many cases those clauses have been ignored for years. I think ours reads two or three percent is the maximum annual increase permitted, which was scaled to island inflation when we bought so many years ago. Unfortunately.....those clauses have long been ignored and timeshare companies have pretty much done what they wanted. If you love YOUR timeshare, both rooms and weeks, it's a little easier to swallow and even if laws were passed today, I'm sure they wouldn't be retroactive so I'm thinking the damage is already done.
