Hi, There appears nothing has been posted since April 2011, I live on the Gold Coast in Australia.
I went onto the web into a site, that I play games on, and had a message in my inbox, and flashed up I had won $3,000 with Perfferred Guest Resort, towards accommodation for a trip to Florida,
I rang the Sydney phone number and was directed to Orlando Florida, I then spoke to a lovely man called Eddie, As I had problem with the 18mth time limit, he put me through to another lovely man called Ross.
At the end of the conversation I had 3 years to use the accommodation etc....7 day car rental, 2 passes to one of the theme parks, a dinner at sunset, a lunch and a breakfast for 2, a cruise to the Bahamas, all for $3,898, - $3,000 I won, so $898 for this great 15 nights help with cheapest travel, so sounded really good, I spoke to my partner and he looked up this site, as I had Ross holding on the phone, he mentioned it was a Time share, and also not the best service with cockroaches, etc... so we did not go ahead with the deal.
Who has been over there in the last year and got a deal like this ? Feedback would be great is this really a Scam ? Had I not rung my partner I probably would have done the deal !!!!
Such a scam, and I fell for it! Advertised as "winning a trip" to Walt-Disney World in a Spanish speaking radio station. Didn't realize this was a time sharing whatever...They sounded so excited and telling me how I was one in 300 to win this fantastic trip. When I researched (after the fact), I called my bank immediately and sent them an email cancelling my contract. Fortunately, I did it the same day and it was that email that may save me. Once I received their package, I read in the back I have 30 days to cancel. I called immediately and the "customer rep" was sooooo rude and snapped that if I had called them immediately, they would have refunded me but I chose to call my bank and that it was going to take months now! I am patient, so long as they don't get my money!
This company has called my husband twice this week wanting him to book a 2 day 2 night cruise to the Bahama's, leaving out of Florida. Entire trip for two people $124.00 I told him it was a scam. Her name was "Lindsay"
I work with a company that has ties to pgr and let me tell you they bring over 40,000 people a year to orlando not counting 27 other destinations. Obviously sometimes you get an [***] simply because all calling centers are contracted out that's normal in this economy. You guys are a bunch of idiots, don't you know that your credit card protects you against "scams" like this.
