Kristy Proffitt, Nathan Ryder, Lee Wells, Julie EDUCATIONAL TRIPS FRAUD TO SCHOOLS & PARENTS

"This company is a scam. BEWARE PARENTS.
Today, I have filed complaints against this multimillion company with Virginia BBB, Federal Trade Commission and others.

We had the Full Refund Protection for $150 - but they do not honor it.
I signed my daughter up for a trip to DC in Oct and paid $75—the trip is for May 21.

I paid nothing else and considered the trip cancelled, knowing they would keep the $75 for cancellation penalty. No Problem.

In MARCH Julie, one of their reps kept calling me to change my mind and send my daughter on this trip and PAY MORE of the $900 trip fee.
Finally I gave in (they know how to make you feel guilty about not doing everything you can for your child) and gave them $250 on March 21st 2012.
Then I had a medical emergency (retina detachment) March 29 —8 days later... And formally cancelled the trip in writing—that took about 3 attempts of mailing, faxing, calling and emailing then they finally responded that they had 'received' the notice.
