We went to a Travel To Go presentation last night for no other reason than the "Complimentary Vacation for Two" that was offered.
We sat thru the whole thing - only to realize at the end this is nothing more than a Timeshare liquidator of unsold timeshare properties. Such a bait and switch. They lure you in with ideas of vacations to all these 5 star resorts - and when it gets down to it all you get is a week at a timeshare property that the property developers/owners couldn't sell. You get the sloppy seconds for $8000 plus a $500 reg. Fee and $200/ year fee. Right.
But that is not why I am upset. We got our voucher for a comp. Vacation - We chose the Royal Caribbean Cruise to Mexico.in the fine print on the back it says to mail in the voucher, yada, yada - and we will be required to pay $299.00 per person! WHAT? OK - I get that we will have to pay for port charges and taxes. That's fine. I went on-line to the Royal Caribbean website to price a cruise directly from them in that category stateroom (Q). I found I can get a cruise for 2 @ $216.00/person and port charges and taxes for 2 people would be $51.58! A total of less than $500 or I could go on my complimentary vacation for $600.
I called Travel to Go this morning and asked them what part of this vacation was complimentary. You know what they said..."Complimentary doesn't mean Free"! I said if that is how they are handling this then I would seriously question their business practices in other areas of travel. They said they would call back. We will see about that!
Anyone looking for info about Travel To Go - RUN! It's a total scam. I feel so bad for all those elderly people in that meeting losing their retirement fund to this outfit.
