So, my relative was given a vacation membership long ago. That membership should cost initially to buy in, but she was given for free. She only need to pay annual fee. Seem like good deal.

Now she is trying to give that membership away for free because she doesn’t like travelling to that place anymore, and don’t want to pay fee.

So i wonder, why just not cancel it. Stop paying to let it cancel by itself like your netflix account.

    Sounds like a timeshare and you cannot cancel those, you own it and the annual fee is required. It’s more like taxes.

      Yes, your aunt has (probably) signed up for what’s essentially a scam. This is their whole business model, they know timeshares sound better than they end up being, so they intentionally trick people into signing contracts that are very difficult to get out of, so they can’t just dump it the moment they realize they don’t want it anymore.
