The "Waiting for ROFR" support group thread

[Tigger & Eeyore]

That's interesting. I wonder why others have gotten on? At least you have one foot in the door and you know there are still some 2 bedrooms available. Congrats again!

It did not make any sense to me either - but I am glad to be in. I sure hope that you are in tomorrow. I went through TTS. If you need me to do anything for you - look into vacancies - let me know and I wll. Just PM and i will call them for you.

Congrats on the new contracts and the passing ROFR - This is what seems like a forever wait, but will be so worth it.

Hi all Very busy at work trying to catch up from not having any DSL or network for 7 days. We have sent in our papers, wired the money and now we wait to close. Still have heard anything one the second contract. Estopple is taking along time on that one. It will be 3 weeks Thursday.
Laxmon - Sorry you had a bad day.
I can tell its AI night, not much activity

Congrats to those passing ROFR!!

Kristen, I can pm you with my agent's infor at GMAC if you like. Let me know.

Tomorrow may not be any better. I took the afternoon off from work because I would have said or done something I would regret if I didn't. I called my boss and requested an 8 am meeting. We'll see.

I'm going to hit it. It has been a long day. TTFN

I had thought that today might be "Teriffic Tuesday," but it turned into "Terrible Tuesday!" We heard from TTS today and we did NOT pass ROFR.

However, we took a look and found another SSR contract that seems to work, at $1/pt. higher than the one that was bought back, and as of tomorrow morning will be right back into the ROFR process once more.

Perhaps we should be moved to the bottom of the list again - but at least we're still making the attempt!

Thanks for the offer but I think I will just wait. Even if there is something available now it doesn't mean it will still be available by the time I'm in and get my points. I went through TTS also. If I'm not in tomorrow I'll probably give them a call and make sure my paperwork got sent and their isn't a problem somewhere. I hope you get your points soon. If I were you I would try again to see if somebody will give you the code to get onto the website.

I'm so sorry to hear that you did not pass ROFR. I'm sure that must have been very disappointing.

I'm glad to hear that you got back up on the horse and found another contract. Good for you!! I sure hope you have better luck on this one!

I sure hope I have been doing the ROFR list correctly in HR's absence. I have been putting people on the top of the list. I will move your name back to the top of the list with a 2 after it.

Good Luck!!!

 

[icouldlivethere]

Good luck to you M-I-C-K-E-Y!!!

I'm so sorry the first contract didn't work out for you.

Here's to better luck with this one! I hope that you pass through ROFR quickly and that you speed through the estoppel process and that you close quickly and find yourself in the system in no time.

I'm so sorry to hear that you did not pass ROFR. I'm sure that must have been very disappointing.

Thanks - it did, in fact, put a complete "damper" on the entire day. However, tomorrow's another day and you're right, we're jumping back on the "horse" to try again.

Keep your fingers crossed for us folks!

I have been there. We first had a Marriott week ROFR'd on day 30 so I totally understand. I am really glad you found a contract though. We did the day after ours too! I will cross my toes too!

If you have an e-mail that would be great.:

I will PM with her phone contact - I don't actually have an email other than the one on their website but she always responds.

 

[minniekissedme]

Question of the day...if you didn't know any better would you be able to tell who the sisters are on this thread. You both should start a new thread...is your DVC reseller on your home/work/cell phone speed dial?!

LM do you like your Marriott week?? I have been looking a little into those too! I looked at the TUG website trying to get understanding....what are your thoughts...p.s. sorry you had such a bad day....if it makes you feel any better...all 4 of my kids have the stomach flu... I have not slept in 2 days. I'm just thankful it is all at one time and not spread out. Hang in there it will all work out!
Does her name begin with R?? That was our girl...she has been great, she emails me everytime I email her within 20 min. or so.

Catch you all later!

I know I just posted this on the DIS Dad thread, sorry to hear about the ROFR but best of luck on your next go around............

Will do!!!

Nope, C but I know who you are talking about and I have heard good things about her also.

We love our Marriotts; MVC. We have 2 that are eoy weeks- equals 1 week of ownership-1 we trade and 1 we always stay. They are great for full week stays, they have really good trade strength and their quality is top notch in most cases. We have owned for 8 years; compared initially to purchasing DVC, Marriott and Fairfield. DVC is more flexible because you can only book 1 entire week with MVC and you must start your planning a year in advance for the best results. We have been to Hawaii, Aruba, Williamsburg, Southern California, and Hilton Head on trades. We had a trade to Kauai but cancelled it to take a Disney Cruise. BTW, the Marriott Ko Olina on Oahu is next to where it appears DVC is looking at building. Very nice area. DVC is more flexible and you can plan on shorter notice. With MVC and II, you can still get some amazing trades within 59 days of travel. Marriott is deeded with no expiration date. Let me know if you have any other questions. I can honestly say that we have no regrets in purchasing with them. Now that we have our DVC, our TS portfolio is perfect! Well, nearly perfect....we need more points!

Thanks for the words of encouragement guys. I am relying on my faith heavily for this one. I have decided not to quit but whether or not I will be fired remains to be seen. In a nutshell, I am being asked to do something that compromises my integrity.

Have a great day guys!!! I can't wait for my 4 day weekend!

Good Morning Sunshines!

My comcast ( they suck ) internet went down for no reason last nite. Haven't been able to use the laptop since so I'm currently in the nasty "kids computer room" checking email.

Susan sister, I so know where you are right now. Last June I left a job I loved over management. I was brokenhearted about it and probably cried for 6 months. I still miss the jobs and my friends. The rebound job I took- I hated. I just started my new job and am hoping that this is the reason it all happened. So far, so good. I hope all works out for the best, I would only wish what happened to me "on my old management" .

M-I-C-K-E-Y- good luck with your new contract. I bet it will work out better this time.

Tomorrow Kris and I start our single day countdown!

I've already called her this morning. I was about to call my guide to check on adding a few AKL points...She told me I was stupid!
