I have received multiple forms to submit for a vacation with air fare. After sataifying all requirements including paying requested fees each time I have received notice that the locations and times I requested are not available. I had paid $200 for a vacation from Celebrity Productions. I have been going through this cycle of submitting request and after months having the request rejected with claim of unavailable. companies in this business should be shut down and made illegal. The whole business is based on misleading the clients.

We received a "free" vacation for attending a time share presentation with Global Travel Network. We followed the instructions for submitting for our "free" vacation. After spending $20.00 to $30.00 in an endless stream of having to mail different items in, everyone with deadlines. And then spending "$200.00 in fees they "VOIDED" our vacation because of one small mistake on one of the forms. They DO NOT give you a chance to correct that mistake. They did refund the $200.00 but your still out the time and money in postage and money order fees. Definately a scam not worth the effort.

I joined a travel club and received a free weekend to a location of my choice (there were 19 locations in the US, and 6 outside the US). After mailing in my initial request, along with my personal information and a $50 "reservation fee", I eventually received (in 6 weeks) a form letter stating my arrival days had to fall between Sun. & Wed. So, I changed the form and sent it back in. 6 weeks later, I received another form saying I had to choose 3 different locations. So, I changed that and sent it back in. In another 6 weeks I received my hotel confirmation. I tried to change it and they said I would owe them another $50. The forms were very misleading and a location I'd chosen wasn't available at all. So, after 6 months of trying to make arrangements (through snail mail) for a free weekend, I finally said forget it! I am so beaten down and aggravated, and have invested so much time into this "free" weekend, I'm giving up! Grand Incentives wins! I'm over it. And, they don't have a toll-free # so you have to call their regular phone line in Sarasota. That's not right either. You can run out of juice on your cell phone. And, if you don't have free long distance on your home phone, your phone call can get expensive. It's really not worth the trouble to try and set up a "free" weekend. Grand Incentives should make it much easier for the consumer--they don't.

My complaint is concerning the accommodations we were given when taking our "FREE" 2 night 3 day vacation for watching a Rainbow vacuum cleaner Demo. We were placed in a hotel in Daytone Beach called Castaways that was in the middle of a row of hotels that were boarded up. This place was a DUMP! I went to Daytona with mid level expectations as far as the place they would put us in (something like a Days Inn maybe). Boy was that a joke. This place looked like it was lifted from the Ghetto and placed on the beach. Homemade bed frames, mold in the shower, looked like vomit in the bottom of the trash can, just plain NASTY! We were offer a free upgrade when we arrived at the check in facility 6 miles from this dump, if we sat through a 1.5 hour time share spill. I had drove 8 hrs with my family and was in no mood for something I had no interest in. We were told the hotel was not scary by the lady at the check in facility. That was a plain Lie. We tried to contact her the remainder of the time there, but we only had 2 full days to enjoy ourselves so we didn't waste our time going back to the office. We went down the street and checked into another hotel for our trip as we were afraid we would catch a disease if we stayed at Castaways. Although I don't directly blame the rainbow vacuum cleaner company, they don't seem to care who they associate themselves with. We had to give a $50 dollar deposit which is supposed to be refunded after our stay. That remains to be seen. I will run from anything that has Grand Incentives name on it in the future and would advise everyone else to do the same.
