About TCG

The internet has become an invaluable resource in modern life, and is certainly a great way to research answers to just about any question. But just as anyone can access the universe of information online, anyone can contribute to it. With the millions of webpages available on even the most marginal of topics, it's often difficult to discern the fact from the fiction. And when the subject at hand is as hotly debated as the timeshare industry, the difference between fact and fiction can be dangerous.

The Timeshare Consumer Group was started to help bridge an egregious gap on the web; namely, the lack of reputable resources regarding what the timeshare industry is all about. This field of business is fraught with difficulties, and deception. Reading the bulk of available information would leave even the most composed of people with their feathers ruffled; even the most seemingly objective of timeshare information can be skewed, or even downright inaccurate. If you know nothing about the industry, how can you determine who is providing legitimate, honest information, and who is being purposefully misleading because they have their own personal biases or more importantly, stand to gain financially? Frequently, you'll see these industry insiders posing as happy timeshare owners in the plethora of timeshare forums and websites. The mission of the Timeshare Consumer Group is to restore the right of the consumer to access accurate information.

And so, by pooling together a collection of insights these pages provide a balanced depiction of the timeshare industry today. This website will offer consumer advocacy and, with your help, promote awareness of the realities of timesharing.
