You today's winner summer

please review the bottom info
I was told I have won, then after keeping me on the phone after saying hey this call is costing me as Im phoning from South Africa they guarantee me its a free call,
I have won a cruise no money involved I dont have to buy anything to qualify for my cruise, but at the end of the call is I dont pay US$800something I get nothing, also if I dont give credit card info immediately I dont qualify, so I tried to reson with the man saying I dont have my card let me get it and phone back, but before all this, the first call first call a man said he will call me back, then after one hour I get no call so I call back to find out whats happening, check below you are a winner, dont need to purchase anything no need to pay anything, call in 4 minutes win cruise, first caller win extra tickets to Disney, and I did call in time so I won my cruise and my tickets, but at the end of the call the things I have won over and above the US$3000 spending spree is not included, I think its alot of bull, When I ask ok can I call back, give me 15 minutes to go fetch my card the sales manager has the cheek to say Ill hold, you call someone let them get your card number, as if someone is going to be able to go into yes have access into my house, go into my study, cupboard and get my card, then call me with the number while I hold for some arogant man who is unreasonable kokkie, and has no human skills,
I am not happy with this whole situation and now expect some compensation for the stress I have been put through as well as the call costs ect, i await a reaction I will wait 3 weeks then take the necessary action

thanks Mr Kelly Vermeulen

Went through this today as well - all sounded too good to be true & waited for the catch i.e. the payment by visa of $899 immediately over the phone - smelt a rat (especially as said no need to confirm booking for 18 months) - I said wanted to think about it - woman on phone became aggressive & slammed phone down! More reflect on it - believe it is a SCAM! as a. never pay VISA over the phone b. this was after they said they would send an e-mail with a "confirmation/ reference number" - all bollox. and part of the scam (building trust/ authenticity) c. The prize was ridiculously over the top for no reason i.e. hotels, cruses, Disneyworld, car hire ALL to MAKE YOU NOT WANT TO MISS OUT (luckily I can't stand Disneyland and all the over the top excessiveness it stands for!) d. the message came up on someone else's web-site that I was browsing e. they never gave a reason for the promotion... i.e. IT IS A SCAM - NEVER PAY VISA etc over the phone to PEOPLE YOU DONT TRUST!

Hi All, I've just been taken in by this same "you've won $3000 Travel Award" if you pay the balance of $898. I phoned them using a local country number they provided so hope it's not charged at an international call rate. They went through the itinerary with me. It did sound good at the time...I was very cautious because I was looking for the catch the whole time. In the end I agreed to pay the $898 - they said the award was only valid for right then! This award was from Summer Bay Resort in Orlando Florida - 6 nights at Summer Bay Resort, 3 nights at Daytona Beach, 2 night Bahamas Celebration Cruise, 7 Day car hire in Orlando, + 4 nights in Costa Rica. You have to pay all your travel yourself. It is just the accommodation, cruise & car hire. Since then I have done my homework & looked up what it would cost me today if I booked this same holiday myself from the accommodation places themselves, through online agents like priceline.com, expedia.com.au, etc. I also phone them more than once to get more precise details about exactly what type or room you get at each place - all standard hotel rooms. This package that they said was worth $3, 898 USD would cost me about $2, 000 USD of which I've already paid $898 - therefore the travel voucher is ONLY WORTH ABOUT $1000 USD not $3000 - not if you call this a scam or just false advertising. I am looking for advice as to who to report this to! I've read the terms & conditions (which they didn't point out to me at the time!) ...I noticed them afterwards when I downloaded "My Document". In there it says I can cancel within 7 days. This is what I have done & am waiting to see if I get all my $898 + $102 All Inclusive package addtiion for Costa Rica (Total $1000 USD I paid)

I just got back from Orlando and Daytona and it was great.! Better than expected. I took a timeshare tour for 90 minutes and it was not so bad. I'm going to bahamas next and mexico! When I called they explaine about promotion they were doing and told me I was getting $3000 discount. this package had 898 dollar balance and it was too much for me at the time so they gave me VIP price of 498 and Daryna was very nice and helpful. Thank you Summer Bay
