THE IMPORTANCE OF THE BBB FOOTPRINT

BEYOND THE BBB RATING Or, a business could have been operating under a different name, providing different services, but then file a “Doing Business As (DBA) and update their name and profile on the BBB. You should look for “Alternate Business Name” on the BBB profile page to see if anything shows there, but if the BBB is unaware of a name change, it won’t show on the page. One quick way to verify they were operating in timeshare exit—for at least three years—is to check the date on the oldest complaint and/or review. A company’s timeshare exit-related BBB reviews should go back at least three years. You won't’ find any older than that, as the BBB only keeps complaints and/or reviews for three years. Another piece of the puzzle is to look at the number of reviews in relation to how long a company has been in business. For instance, if a company claims to have been providing timeshare exit for 15 years— helping thousands of timeshare owners— there should be a couple hundred reviews, not 18-20.

sd You want to look for a footprint. It a company has helped thousands of clients for years, they should have more than 23 reviews and 5 complaints. Make sure their advertising claims match up to their record.
