Firewall or Security Program Issues
Firewalls or security programs cause various issues. The most common are the inability to access secure pages and/or having blank drop-down boxes when trying to search for vacations online. The obvious solution is to disable whatever security program is being used and try again. As every page in RCI.com is secure, this should pose no threat to your information while transacting business online through our site.

Internal Error
This usually occurs when trying to create a Login and Password. The problem is either due to the use of an unsupported browser or to trying to create a Login with a special character. Neither your login/username nor password can contain any symbols, including apostrophes (O'Neil for example). Also, both must be 6-15 letters and/or numbers.
If this is not the problem, you may need to adjust your browser settings or download a different browser version. The Weeks site is best viewed by Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher or Netscape 6.2.1. Netscape 7.0/7.01 does not seem to work well with RCI.com. For information about downloading a new browser at no cost, go to www.microsoft.com or http://wp.netscape.com/download/archive/client_archive62x.html. Java and cookies should be enabled on whatever browser you use. -
Macintosh information
The browser requirement is a bit different for Macintosh users than for other platforms. IE 5.0 Macintosh Edition is supported by RCI.com, even though the requirement is version 5.5 or higher for other platforms. Otherwise, Netscape 6.2.1 should work as well. Just go to go to www.microsoft.com or http://wp.netscape.com/download/archive/client_archive62x.html to download either at no cost.

- If you are using an Internet Explorer, click on "Help" on your browser's toolbar and then "About Internet Explorer".
Browser Settings
You'll need to have the following settings:- Cookies enabled - for most browsers go to Tools, Internet Options, Security tab, click on Custom Level at bottom, scroll down to Cookies, click on Enable; for IE 6, click Tools then Internet Options, click on the Privacy tab, adjust the slider to Medium or Low, and then click on Apply and OK.
- Java enabled - go to Tools, Internet Options, Advanced tab, scroll down to Java settings near the bottom of the list and be sure "Java logging enabled" is checked.

For IE 6
- Use TLS 1.0 enabled - go to Tools, Internet Options, Advanced tab, scroll down to security settings, place a check next to Use TLS 1.0.
- Saved Favorites/Cache Files
RCI.com changes quite often. If you use a saved link or favorite, you can be directed to an outdated page if you use a saved favorite. This can cause issues when logging on or when doing a transaction online, depending on what page actually changed. Therefore, we encourage you to re-enter www.rci.com each time to avoid this problem.
Similarly, cache files can also direct you to outdated pages. When a cache file is created and that Internet page changes, a "bad rut" can be created that directs you to a bad page even though you re-entered www.rci.com. Therefore, we recommend that you periodically delete your cache files. To do so, try the following: -go to Tools -Internet Options -General tab -click on Delete Files from Temporary Internet files area
Security Programs
Firewalls or security programs cause various issues. The most common are the inability to access secure pages and having blank drop-down boxes. The obvious solution is to disable whatever security program is being used and try again. As every page in RCI.com is secure, this should pose no threat to your information while transacting business online through our site.If you continue to have difficulties, please contact RCI via e-mail at feedback@rci.com or telephone. If you are a Weeks member, call 800/338-7777. Points members may call 877/968-7476.
-
Page Cannot Be Displayed Error
This error is typically related to one of two issues—the use of a saved link/favorite or an unsupported browser. Our technical staff recommends re-entering www.rci.com each time versus using a saved link or favorite. Otherwise, you may be trying to access a page that has since been changed or no longer exists. For that same reason, it's a good idea to periodically delete your cache files as well. As for the browser, our technical staff recommends using Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher or Netscape 6.2.1.
-
Problem entering credit card number
Generally, problems with entering credit card information are caused by not entering the details in the accepted format. The credit card number cannot include any spaces or dashes, and the expiration date must be listed in a mm/yyyy format (09/2007 for example).
Additionally, if you use Internet Explorer 6.0, it's important to check that your security setting "Use TLS 1.0" is selected. To enable that option, just open your browser and go to Tools, Internet Options, select the Advanced tab, scroll down to the security settings, and place a check next to Use TLS 1.0.
-
Too Many Users Error

How to search online - Weeks
To search availability with your deposited week, please select the "Exchange Your Week" tab. Select the week you wish to use for the search. If you have more than three deposits, you may click the "View Additional Deposits" link to view all of them. Not sure which deposit to use? Please click on the red plus sign next to any of the deposits. The specific deposit information pertaining to this week will now be displayed.
With the deposit selected, the first page of the Enhanced Search shows you every available unit within the booking window. The number of units listed corresponds to the same number listed after each deposit on the previous page. A new feature for the Enhanced Search is that you may search availability using one deposit, and then easily switch to another deposit later on if you wish.
You may start to narrow your search by selecting filters on the left-hand side of the page. The manner in which the results are displayed is also an option. You may select the map version or list version by clicking on the corresponding tab. If very specific information is required, you may enter that at the bottom of the page. Any of the selected filters may be removed by clicking on the red "x" on the results page.
If the desired resort or dates are not available, you have the option to initiate an ongoing search. To do this, scroll to the right side of the page and click on the link, "Enter an Ongoing Search.” You will then be directed to verify the search parameters and to complete credit card information for the exchange fee. Each exchange fee is refundable if a vacation is not confirmed or if you need to stop the search for any reason. Please note you will not be given the option to start a request if your check-in dates are less than 30 days away.
It is important to keep in mind when RCI receives a SPACEBANK deposit, we first try to match it to a request already in the computer. Consequently, space may be limited in an initial search. The ongoing computer search remains the most effective means by which to confirm an exchange for a popular location/travel date.

Invalid PIN error Message
The "Invalid PIN" message is generally related to entering a wrong RCI Weeks ID number or your browser. Please verify your 9-digit RCI ID number. The first 4 digits are usually the same as your home resort or vacation club. If you are referring to your mailing label for Endless Vacation magazine, just use the first 9 digits of the 10-digit number listed next to your expiration date.
If you are entering the correct ID # the problem may be related to your browser. Members who have reported this issue are typically using Internet Explorer 6.0. An adjustment of your security settings may be necessary to access the secure pages within our site. The steps to make the adjustment are as follows:
- click on Tools
- select Internet Options and then the Advanced tab
- scroll down to the Security settings
- place a check in the box that says "Use TLS 1.0"
-
Invalid Username or Password
The most common cause of this is entering a Username (Login) or Password that differs from what was created. However, other issues may also exist, which include the following:
Using a different case than was used to create the Username and Password. If your Username or Password was created in upper case it needs to be entered in upper case or a mismatch will occur.
If your Username is the same as the beginning of your e-mail address, your system may be populating your full e-mail address in the Username field. Just go to the end of your Username and hit delete several times to ensure the rest of your e-mail address is not listed as well.
-
Past vacations remaining in Vacation Plans section
Recently taken vacations remain in the Vacation Plans section for 90-180 days after check-in. After the 90-180 day period, the vacation will then be found in the Vacation History section instead.

If you receive an error message "The information you entered does not match our records", the problem could be any of the following:
- Your first name is listed differently in our system

- You haven't yet created an account specifically for yourself. Try requesting a PIN and then using that PIN to create an account. If one has already been created in your name, you'll receive an error message to that effect.

Guest Certificates
Because members at times wish to give their RCI vacation benefits to family and friends, RCI implemented a Guest Certificate program. The Guest Certificate ensures that guests will not experience difficulty upon arrival at a host resort.

To add a Guest Certificate, simply log in as you did before and click on "My Account" then select "Vacation Plans" or "Extra Vacation Plans" (if you are a Points member) and go to "Confirmations". Scroll down to your confirmation and click on "Create/Modify RCI Guest Certificate".

How To Extend An Expiring Week
Each deposit is available for exchange 12 months prior to its start date through twenty-four months after the start date. The check-in date of the confirmed vacation using a deposit must fall within this timeframe. RCI has developed a program that allows members with SPACEBANK deposits about to expire to extend their usage. However since this program is not supported online, please call our Holiday Guides to purchase an extension.
-
Inaccessible deposits
Some resorts use non-inventory deposits that represent vacation time. These deposits may be in lieu of resort points or credits. Since these deposits do not feature a particular resort, unit or vacation week, they are not accessible online. Please call RCI's staff instead to take advantage of any such weeks you may have in your account.
-
No available weeks to exchange
If your deposited weeks are already being used for ongoing requests, you will need to select the "My Account" tab and go to the "Vacation Plans" section to see the request.
Also, if you participate in a points or credits type program within your resort and/or its group, a non-inventory type of deposit is probably used, which requires our staff to assist you via telephone instead.
-
No available weeks to deposit
The vacation time listed online as available to be deposited is determined by the weeks listed on your ownership screen. It is possible that no ownership was listed when your account was established. Please call or e-mail our staff if you feel this may be the case.
Another possibility is that your resort deposits vacation weeks for its owners. Also, if you participate in a points or credits type program within your resort and/or its group, a non-inventory type of deposit is probably used, which requires our staff to assist you via telephone instead.

No Home Week appearing on account
In the RCI Points® program, "Home Week" is the term used to describe the 366 to 396 day (approximately 12-13 month) in advance timeframe when Points members who own fixed weeks can confirm their "home week".
RCI Points members who own floating time will see the message "You don't have a Home Week". Floating time owners can make "Home Resort" reservations 335 to 365 days (approximately 11-12 months) in advance, "Home Group" reservations 304 to 334 days (approximately 10-11 months) in advance, and standard Points reservations 303 days (approximately 10 months) or less in advance. RCI Weeks reservations may be made 3 days to 24 months in advance. -
RCI Weeks Exchange Cancellation Policy
Any change to your confirmed travel dates constitutes cancellation of your exchange and is subject to our standard cancellation guidelines. When cancellation is made 61 days or more prior to your confirmed travel dates, S$100 of your original exchange fee is retained by RCI. Should cancellation be requested 60 days or fewer prior to travel, no portion of your exchange fee is refundable. However, in either case, your deposited week will be eligible for a new exchange.
Vacations cannot be cancelled online. If you need to cancel a confirmed exchange, please call a Holiday Guide for assistance.

Unable to obtain a PIN
If you did not receive an almost immediate response to your PIN request, it would mean that some piece of information you entered did not match our database exactly. The most common problem is submitting two names rather than just one, adding a middle initial to the first name field, or not including "Jr", "II", etc. to the last name. If you are unsure how your name is listed on your RCI membership, please check a mailing label from RCI or your RCI ID card or call our Member Services Department so that our staff can verify this for you.
If your information has been verified but you still do not receive the PIN, the problem may be an issue related to the use of an e-mail filter or "spam blocker". For some reason, many filters recognize the PIN e-mail as a 'junk e-mail' and, therefore, simply delete the message or forward it to a "Bulk" or "Junk mail" folder. If you feel this may be a possibility, please check your deleted messages or your Bulk or Junk mail folder for your PIN. Otherwise, please relax your settings and try again.

What is an RCI Points Membership?
RCI Points® is a points-based program that offers subscribing participants the flexibility of using points for shorter vacations, as well as travel-related products, including airfare, cruises, car rental, and hotel reservations. Many vacation clubs may also offer a points or credits based program but participate in the RCI Weeks program instead, not RCI Points sm.
