Worldwide Travel Experts They took us for $3500 plus $200 a year in dues for discounted travel. The prices are cheaper on Travelocity, Expedia, etc. Lahaina Hawaii
First of all we are two senior ladies 72 and 81 who got talked into going to this seminar for a discount on a luau and dinner cruise. At this seminar we were told about these wonderful discounts we would receive on travel, cruises and hotels. We were apprehensive but were tag teamed by at least five different sales representatives offering better and better deals that would be offered for a limited time only. We were even told they could get us a better price on a cruise we had already signed up for. That better deal never happened.
When we got home we started checking hotel prices for a trip we were taking to Germany for that cruise. The prices for hotels were the same or cheaper on Travelocity and Expedia. We called Worldwide and they said that their rates were based on a weeks stay. So, we changed our stay to a week and saved a grand total of $30 that would cost us $200 in dues. Again I called to complain and they said well the real savings is with the condos. Unfortunately they were none in Hamburg.
Also there were no savings on flights or cruises that you couldn't get anywhere else on line.
We are paying $3,500 plus $200 dues any year we want to travel for discounts we can get for free on any travel site. We were also given a $500 travel voucher that is redeemable only with a week's stay at a condo. You have to pay for your stay and then turn in receipts for the $500 savings. Many people on line said they are still waiting to receive this big savings.
After reading all the complaints on line we are afraid to get involved with this company in anyway and just want OUT! It is nothing but a scam. I can't believe they would take advantage of two old ladies living on Social Security.
