Lonestar Timeshare Transfer, of Rockwall, Texas, is definitely not to be trusted. First, they are operating a sole proprietorship in violation of Texas law. The name must be registered as an assumed business name. It is not. Combined with the anonymizing website registration, a "About Us" page that never names names...you're dealing with a company that is doing business with a bag over its head.
I have discovered via legal service and a lot of digging that the owner is one Karen L. Holloway (formerly Petty), aged 37, and husband Brian D. The Rockwall address is just more obfuscation. She has been running this outfit for two years, since her previous timeshare scam, Timeshare Justice Incorporated, forfeited its existence when she was found to not be in compliance with applicable statute (Texas SOS entity #801329738 if you care to see for yourself). Formerly at Aramark, it seems she doesn't care to work for a living any more. If you wish to serve them legal papers, I got satisfaction using 2700 Merlin Dr, Lewisville, TX 75056-5739, (972) 899-0230.
So much for doing business with a bag over your head, Karen. If you don't like people investigating you, then file the required assumed business name paperwork with the Secretary of State. So, before we've even met you, we know you're breaking the law.
As for timeshares, their main ploy seems to be mass spam campaigns talking about "your timeshare" as a phishing technique, filtering only the most stupid who think, "Oh, they know about my timeshare". Yeah, people still fall for that. Then they find out what you want, claim to have it, get rights to yours...and, oh, the one you wanted isn't available anymore. But now they have your listing. It's a straight-up, blind flying phishing scam. And it only takes 1 in 100 to make it all pay. Lots of fees, lots of fine print- by the time the mark is fed up they realize they only have a phone number. Go recover based on that.
Avoid if you have 1/2 a brain.

Lonestar Transfer has no idea who wrote this report. We know it’s definitely not a customer of ours. This “report” is full of errors so they don’t know us personally or as a company. The owner information is wrong, the age of the owner is definitely wrong (I wish I was just 37), and we have never been sued by anyone. Please don’t send anything to that house address in Lewisville. Lonestar Transfer has nothing to do with that addresses and never has. We are guessing it is an unscrupulous competitor who can’t compete based on customer service and business ethics so this is the best they can do.
Here are the facts. Lonestar Transfer is proudly owned by Karen and Bryan Holloway. We are a Rockwall business and have been so since we started the company in 2013. Our address is 697 E. Interstate 30, Rockwall, TX 75087. Please check us out on the Rockwall Chamber of Commerce website. We have a full write up that includes all of the services we offer, our contact information, and pictures and videos of the owners and our employees.
We would love to help you if you need to get away from a timeshare you no longer use. Please contact us at (855) 722-3166 or go to http://lonestartransfer.com for valuable information on how to avoid timeshare scams run by the type of people who wrote this fake “complaint”. We look forward to hearing from you and making you a real customer of Lonestar Transfer.
