Anyone heard of Funkyfogey/Seasons?   
Hi,

I've just had an email telling me that I've won a lifetime membership to 
funkyfogey/Seasons.

I 'phoned them up and they seemed genuine.  But has anyone else heard of 
these and know what they're like?

Thanks,

Grendel.

Yep. Got something similar myself earlier in the year. They are genuine...but 
there is a catch or two. You have to pay a 300/year maintenance fee to teain 
your 'lifetime' membership and you only have access to a very limited range of 
dates for your 7 day time share. It is all explained in detail in the brochure 
and bumph they send out to you. I didn't take up the offer but have retained the 
membership certificate as a keepsake as this was the most valuable prize I have 
won even though I passed :-))

Cheers

Kevin

P.S. A Google search will turn up quite a bit of info on Seasons, both good and bad.

Yep I have won twice ! did not take up the offer look up the resale value of 
the weeks and how much you pay for maintenance each year with no guarantee 
of getting any week that you would want
