We want our contract cancelled. We specifically said we wanted to stay in Hawaii and XXXX XXXX sales agent XXXX XXXX said staying in Hawaii would be no problem if we purchased XXXX points. After getting on the booking site ( after the rescission period ) we learned this would not be near enough points to stay in Hawaii or other locations we were interested in. The presentation was very high pressure lasting over six hours. In addition, we are disputing an additional {$150.00} charge because we tried to cancel a XXXX event, but the person never returned our phone calls. 

I contacted XXXX XXXX because I had contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX and wanted to know if we should go through a company like that. XXXX XXXX said both companies were scams and suggested I contact XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX asking our loan be cancelled and to forward the information to you about the two timeshare exit companies I cancelled, XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX.
