Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

In February 2014, my wife and I responded to an advertisement in our local newspaper for round trip air and 3 night lodging at any Wyndham resort in the continental U.S. at a great price.  All we had to do was listen to a presentation.  We made an appointment and met Mr. Decker.  After listening to his speech and the price, we agreed it was a good deal.  We signed a contract for the travel club CRI, and Mr. Decker then offered two more free trips to any Wyndham with air fare included plus a 5 night Caribbean cruise.  We didn't have a check or cash with us at that meeting so we agreed my wife would meet him the next day and provide the check. 

We were told that we would be hearing from CRI in the next few days and they would also be sending us our membership packet with all necessary information.  Mr. Decker told us he would be sending us our Wyndham travel certificates in the mail in a week to ten days.  Neither of these things have happened.  We have called Mr. Decker on at least 7 or 8 occasions and he always had an excuse as to why he hadn't gotten them in the mail yet.  We still don't have them.  We contacted CRI and were told we could use a temporary password and schedule trips if we wanted.  I asked them if they had received our information from Mr. Decker and were told they had not gotten anything, but to go ahead and use their website.  I called the President of CRI and asked her if she knew Mr. Decker as he apparently has sold memberships before.  She said she did know him.  I asked her why she would allow someone like him to sell their product when he can't be relied on to fulfill his responsiblity.  I didn't get much of an answer, but was told to go ahead and use their services anyway.

I  have searched the internet and found several instances where Mr. Decker had taken other folks money and left them with nothing.  I have filed a report with the Kansas Attorney General's office.  I am also going to pursue this matter in small claims court. Hopefully, there will be someone who can stop this man from taking anyone else's money.

Im sorry you were taken by Kenneth Jon Decker.  Back in 2008 I fell for his dog and pony show as well.  We signed up with CRI and Ken was going to send us 2 free cruise vouchers that could be used on Carnival Cruise lines with no blackout dates.  All we had to do was send him a $100 registration fee each.  We were newly married and thought this would be a good, cheap trip.  Guess what? We never saw a thing.  I stayed in contact with him for several months and kept getting empty promises.  I also was in contact with a lady at CRI and she appologized for him but said CRI had nothing to do with his cruise vouchers.  I filed complaints with the Oklahoma and Missouri attorney general and nothing was ever done.  This clown has been doing this to folks for years so i dont see why a state attorney general wouldnt throw the book at him.  I have seen where in Jan of 2014 he took money from an elderly lady to do home repairs and never showed up.  I also took him to small claims court in Beckham County Oklahoma and got a default judgement on him because he never showed up.  I tried to track him down for years and never found him or any assets to be able to collect my judgement.  I wish you good luck  and sure hope someone is able to track this clown down and give him what he disserves.  I hope i never meet him again in person because i am afraid what i would say or do.
