My husband and I were enjoying our Hawaii vacation when an extremely outgoing gentlemen be-friended us. We were on a tight budget on that vacation, so his offer to provide a voucher for a discounted attraction was lucrative to us.
We agreed to attend a "quick" seminar with no obligation the following day in order to redeem our prize. Promises of discounted travel worldwide without the fees of timeshares were pitched. The package included discounts for hotels, cruises, and condo's worldwide at premium locations for bargain prices. They raved about the steals they would provide at reputable hotels and premium condo's for prices unparalleled to what the average consumer would pay. A one time cost of only $5000.00 for our membership, and that is after we bargained down. Why not, look at how much we would be saving in the long run!
We were ecstatic about our new membership! This opened so many doors to create so many memories! Unfortunately, it was only a lesson to be learned. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM!
Hotels are barely at a discount, generally offereing $10-$15 dollars of a night. Rarely will you find any of the hotels mentioned in there presentation! In addition to the fact that the actual locations of condo's or hotels are always in bum f*k! No major cities, no major hotels, NO MAJOR SAVINGS!
*Warning they try to get you to sign up right after the presentation. Obviously so you will not read reports like this one.
Please if you know anyone traveling in Honolulu and someone approaches them offering discounts/free luau, activities, dinner cruises, sight seeing adventures... ANYTHING to attend a presentation on awesome travel opportunities, tell them to STAY CLEAR! There are coupons for savings if need be, DO NOT GET SUCKED IN!!!
