Fyi, the time period for contract rescission (cancellation) in Mexico is 5 days. A written notice of your cancellation rights should have been provided to you at the time of contract execution. If you were not provided with a notice of those cancellation rights or if you were were asked to sign a waiver of those rights, either instance is grounds on which to void the contract (with PROFECO assistance). If neither one of those situations apply, then it would appear that you simply did not submit a contract rescission within the allotted 5 days time period.

You may have felt pressured by the sales weasels, but that "feeling" does not constitute sufficient basis on which to void a contract that you executed voluntarily and of your own free will. After all, you could have just declined to sign. Nonetheless, I wish you luck in attempting to rescind the contract. You will definitely have an uphill battle ahead if you have already missed the available (by law) rescission period and are now just belatedly experiencing "buyer's remorse".

I would also recommend removing your e-mail address from a public forum like this. You'll be getting a lot of spam and scam e-mails from companies claiming they can get you out of your predicament.

We paid SFI London a lot of money for Vallarta Gardens also and after the 5 years I have tried everything to get a hold of them,no emails and no phone.

I tried to find them in England throw FCA but to no avail. My next step is to see a lawyer in Mexico to see if we can go after Vallatra Gardens for miss repentation on the sale of the time stare.

If you want to "cancel" a Mexican timeshare, which is really just a right-to-use and not deeded property, your best bet is just to stop making annual maintenance fee payments and let your membership lapse. You might face a bunch of annoying collection calls and letters and possibly a hit on your credit rating or score. But they will just eventually cancel your membership. You do not need to pay any party $3000 for that.

You can do that if you want but you'd just be wasting your time, and possibly money. If you want to be successful in such an endeavor, you would have to prove that VG misrepresented. What proof do you have other than "They said..."?

I don't know much at all about whatever passes for "law" in Mexico, but as a general rule in a contract matter here in the U.S., if something is not overtly stated in writing within the contract, then it simply does not exist. Some contracts here even state in writing that any verbal claims or statements made by sales representives are not legally binding.

If you believe that you have been a victim of fraud and are prepared to prove it, contact PROFECO instead of paying any useless "Mexican law company" one peso.
