Some of the benefits of owning a timeshare are the options provided by Exchange companies.  Being a member of an established and reputable exchange company can allow you to swap your  timeshare to travel to another destination at a different time of the year. This gives one a lot of  flexibility and proves to be a huge bonus.  Established exchange programs operate on a “fair exchange” system. It works like a bank  account – what you deposit into the “SPACEBANK” is what you can withdraw. It is a like-for-like  system whereby the “value” of the timeshare you have SPACEBANKED has a direct impact on the  “VALUE” of the exchange you can withdraw and enjoy.   “VALUE” is influenced by the quality of the timeshare being used as well as the seasonality of the  time being deposited.  HOW TO GET THE BEST EXCHANGE YOU WANT FIRSTLY REGISTER YOUR WEEK ONLY WITH ALL THE TIMESHARE EXCHANGE COMPANIES.  There is RCI, iExchange, First Exchange and DAE being among the top exchange companies in  the industry.   At this stage you should NOT DEPOSIT (SPACEBANK) your week. You are REGISTERING ONLY –  make this quite clear with the exchange operator you are working with. GET THE NAME OF THE  PERSON, DATE AND TIME YOU DO THE REGISTRATION. They will give you a member number  which you will be able to use to access their websites. ONLY WHEN YOU GET THE EXCHANGE  YOU WANT AND THE EXCHANGE COMPANY CONFIRMS THIS, THEN – AND ONLY THEN – DO  YOU SPACEBANK YOUR TIMESHARE WEEK. Once you SPACEBANK your week with any  company you CANNOT SPACEBANK WITH ANYONE ELSE - If you do this could lead to legal  complications.  Study the terms and conditions of each exchange company carefully – each work on a slightly  different system. Each give different “VALUES” to your timeshare. How they allocate the “VALUE”  to each resort can be found in our web site on - http://www.fairfields.co.za/exchangesystem.htm  Once registered you will be able to go online to see what is your timeshares “VALUE”. You will be  able to see the vast number of resorts that are available for you to choose from. You will be able to  do your exchange online, however, I prefer the one-on-one approach where you can speak to the  operators. You will be able to see the many holiday bargains on offer.   HERE ARE A FEW TIPS THE EARLIER YOU SPACEBANK the greater the opportunity exists to find what you need.  BE FLEXIBLE when selecting a resort or an area. There are many fine resorts in any area to  choose from. This certainly helps to achieve what you are looking for.  BE FLEXIBLE, if possible, as to the time you want to travel. This gives you added flexibility and  increases your chances.  SOME ADDED BENEFITS Owners can allow family or friends to use their exchange holiday – a wonderful gift or an incentive  for your staff.  Being a member of an exchange programme also gives you access to additional and high-quality  discounted rental holidays. These can be purchased without using your exchange holiday time.  These are known as Extra Holidays, Bonus weeks or Getaways.  Exchange companies also offer a wide range of leisure and lifestyle benefits and are able to  provide these at highly competitive rates. Members should contact their exchange companies for  details of the specific benefits.  FOR FURTHER INFORMATION Contact Details: PO Box 6235 Westgate 1734, Republic of South Africa.
