I went to a vacation travel seminar. (how they got my personal information is beyond me) They promised a members only price for condos, hotel prices below anyone else etc.. Then they encouraged (not forced) me to get rid of my time share by using one of their affiliates (Century 21) to sell it for me. And I could stay in my same condo for $400. So I shell out more money to have my timeshare merely "listed". Still, no word about it being sold, nearly 6mo now..

So I decide to look up the company online. Without signing in anything , I see condo prices available to the public! Now, you figure!
I just shelled out 1500 dollars for what was supposed to be a members only club at discount prices, and this is what I get...... shame.

So, I lose again by being suckered into these vacation schemes. First, by buying timeshare, now by Vacation travel Company. What an expensive lesson my family learned.......

Vacation Travel Club is not a scam

#2REBUTTAL Owner of company

I have just read a rip off report filed against my company and I was taken back a step. First off, Vacation Travel Club does not sell to individuals but to "MEMBERS" only. This has been our policy since we started over 14 years ago. You can not book any travel or accommodations unless you are a member in good standing and have a valid Membership Number. Obviously this member did not do his homework or call our office for the correct information. Also, we do not sell Timeshare units for our members. Some Distributors that market our program try to help people who wish to sell. But Vacation Travel Club does not get involved. I am sure that the person who filed the rip-off report knows this and I would appreciate him revising his complaint against the correct company. All questions may be directed to our Member Services at (800) 524-6240 or memberservice@vacationtravelclub.com

Thank you
