I guess all I can say is that, whatever is the marketing strategy of Club Astoria in Boracay is great because it makes people to pay right there and there. I am also one of those lured in Boracay to pay my initial installment and up to now paying my monthly payments. Hey people wake up, this is what's wrong with us Filipinos, if you think it is your hard earned money and you don't have extra for it, why the heck are you going to pay your initial installment then after a few days you would be backing out. Why did you let yourself be swooned into signing and going into something that you are not sure about. I give my high regards to those people who attended their invitation and had the courage to say no and say that they dont have the funds for that. The representative that I talked to, reiterated that it is okay if I say NO, and they are just presenting what Club Astoria can offer and it is up to us to accept it. In my circle of friends, I was also surprised that some of my friends are members of Club Astoria and it is not Boracay that they were offered but here in Manila. And I have not heard any qualms from them. We were not able to use their free accomodations because of our busy schedules and there was no problem with that. If you can't contact Astoria via e-mail then call them through their landline. I think everything was written on the contract that we signed and before signing it was explained to us, right. It is very wrong to say that Astoria Club is scam, I have friends who are enjoying their membership with Astoria and also with their membership with RCI. Sometimes, I would have delay in my payments, Club Astoria will call me as reminder. They would also send my receipts to my home, if I pay through bank transfer. It is as simple as, if you dont have the money for it then dont push yourself to having a time-sharing membership. Dont be swooned too easily by any marketing strategy. If you are unsure, dont sign anything and dont give your installment. And if you are really interested after a few days, for sure the offer will always be there.
