News Flash:  April 2010 - American tourist beats credit card company.  Finally one of the many people who email us for help got the courage to take our advice and stand up to the credit card companies who make a profit off of you getting screwed by these Mexican Timeshare resorts.  Mr. L filed a small claims lawsuit against BankAmericard based on the fact that he cancelled his contract with the 5 days allowed by Mexican law, and the resort's continued effort to charge his account amounted to fraud and BAC was doing nothing to stop the fraud.  Mr. L got a judgment of $4750 against BAC.  If you legally cancelled your contract and the resort continues to bill your credit card, that is FRAUD and if your credit card company does not act, they can be liable.  By US law you are only responsible for the first $50 of a fraudulent charge if you notify your credit card company of the fraud in a timely manner.  You need to start standing up for yourself and fight both the timeshare resorts and your credit card company if necessary.  Once we start making the credit card companies pay the bill, they are going to rethink their position of supporting these crocked timeshare resort.

Why Do We Help?

We also fell victim to one of these schemes while on vacation in Mexico.  Initially we contacted several other victims over the internet, and together we were able to fight back and get a full refund.  Although we got our money, there are many other people out there who have not.  We continue the fight in order to help others and to eventually force these Mexican Resorts to improve their business practices.

We do not charge for our services and help, but if you eventually find value in our assistance we would appreciate any financial contributions you would care to make.  Before you decide to contribute, you must first receive your refund.  Regardless of the reason, if we can not help you get a refund we would not want your contribution.  I have seen too many cases where people solicit money from consumer fraud victims for helping them and then provide nothing more than defrauding the consumer a second time.  You can reach us by email at mescam@mescam.com should you find value in our help and would like to support our efforts. 

You can also email us if you are upset about your timeshare / vacation package experience and just need someone to talk to.
