Ok, So I get this fax and I call the number because I wanted to take the kids back to Florida.
I get that same line everyone gets from the rep on the phone, telling me this was the only package left. What ever.
I book the trip and I wait for my confirmation. But while I am waiting for it I stumble across this ripoff web site. But this is 2 weeks after I buy the trip. So I start feaking out and telling my husband how I think we made the wrong choice. I counld not get my money back so I book the Florida trip.
While getting ready for the trip 3/31-4/5/03 I kept thinking about all the bad things that coul go wrong.
I called AAA to check out the hotel called the Ameri Host Inn they gave the hotel 3 stars so that was ok with me.
Ok so we get to the hotel in Florida I go to get some voucher I had to have when I find out some one screwed up my reservation. I added one extra night with the hotel so they had me checking out on the 04/05 but vacation showroom said they were only paying for 3 nights the hotel had them paying for 4 nights.
Needless to say the Hotel screwed up and they would not pay for the extra night. I had to pay for 2 nights at a rate of $49.00 is what the hotel gave me. They even upgraded our room to a child suite since they messed up. Can you believe it, Vacation Showroom did something good. The Hotel was cool it even has a pizza hut inside it that was not to pricey for the kids.
So we go to the time share tour a vacation village we met a nice sales rep that showed us around and took us to lunch then we had the tour. It was nice and then we came to the end where I've heard people get pushy.
But it was not like that at all we told the sales rep about our finacial situation and she said ok and then her manager talked to us and saw that we could not do anything and she only asked once then we had to evaluate the rep and the lady asked one more time and we said there was no way we could afford it. My husband was laid off from his job and we were barely making the trip. We got our Disney tickets and left and we continued with our trip. Thank God it turned out ok.
My husband worked hard for the money we had to go and I would be Dammed if they were going to rip us off.
As for the other parts of the trip Ft. Laud, Vegas, Cancun. I don't think I trust them that much to do it again.
I am glad it turned out ok I hope the next person that tries it gets the same results I did since you can't get your money back from them to me that is a rip off..
