I purchased from Ocean Canyon Properties and so far everything I was told has been the truth. I would never walk away from purchasing anything without the signed documentation or any other important documentation pertaining to a financial agreement. I would never sign papers without firstly, reading everything and secondly, I would have never sign documentation if any personal information was wrong, especially my name. It is your right and privilege to insist on having accurate paperwork or you just walk out.
After reading this complaint the red flag for me was... The agreement between the man and the company he worked for was to rent a place to stay... this money was not meant for the man to purchase vacation property. The fraud is in fact on the man taking monies from his company to buy property.
When I purchased from Ocean Canyon I purchased from another location. I purchased a Deeded Platinum Ownership with OCP.
It was made very clear that it was a Float, which means you could only stay 21 days at one particular resort. If you wanted to continue to stay at that same resort, you had the option to purchase a 7 day stay and then your next 21 days would kick in. However, you could only buy a week once annually. You can go from OCP property to a different OCP property without a 7 day wait period. You can freely park hop within the OCP or go somewhere else for 7 days and go back to the property of choice. It was made crystal clear that it was not a campground where you could live indefinitely.
If I were the man's company and found out that the stipend given for temporary living arrangements was going to property ownership, I would not only fire the man but, sue him for any monies that were given to OCP ownership.
It seems to me this person is upset because, his plan to get over on his employer didn't go as planned. Had the man been able to stay at Styx River at $400.00 a month for 3 years he would have outright owned a Platinum membership which includes Coast to Coast and Good Sam's memberships... All bought and paid for by his employer.
In my opinion his story does not add up and if he wanted to be a decent person and not rip-off his employer he should retract his report and feel bad about the fraud he attempted.

If I have checked out the website before hand I would of know the truth. We was a drive up as they would call it there. And as for staying at resort/campgrounds we have been traveling with work now for years and have stayed in several of them. Was not asking for any special treatment.
No we was not conspiring with the sales person to rip off the company. In all the years that we have been traveling with work and the company paying for the stay have never had any problems with any other resort/campground before until Ocean Canyon.

How could you live full time at a vacation resort designed for RV camping and small vacations? Their website very clearly defines Ocean Canyon Properties as a Resort. Even in your post you mention that you knew it was a resort but you wanted special treatment to live their full time.
If the sales rep put the wrong name on your contract, which is fraud, don't you think it is very likely that they will tell you other things that aren't accurate? So now it looks like both you and the sales rep conspired together to defraud your company for the $400 a month. If I were you, I would get this fixed right away. It doesn't look good that you signed the contract under a false name. It doesn't look good that the resort is taking out double the amount you were authorized to spend either.
