I did go to this presentation, hesitantly on May 16th. They were extremely disorganized and unprofessional. I wound up being there close to 2.5 hrs instead of 1 hr, as promised. At the end, they wanted 10K for a travel 'club' membership...no thanks. They mysteriously ran out of travel vouchers and I still have not received them in the mail, as they promised. I did receive a restaurant.com gift card, but only after calling a mysterious 706 area number that had called my work line and did not leave a msg (I recognized the area code from the initial calls trying to get me to attend). I spoke with a Bruce this morning from VNI (where my letter came from) and he said he would try to get it resolved, but explained that iGlobe is a sales agent for VNI.
Also, after the presentation, many people were worried about the legitimacy of the promotion, and we also found out that a couple talked iGlobe down to $1000 (from $10K?) - just sounds wierd and fishy to me. Also, everyone had a different form of 'invitiation' to this presentation. Anyway, if anyone is thinking of going, copy the letter that you receive, take notes, get names, business cards (if you can)...I just don't think this is very kosher and I'll be surprised if I actually get my travel vouchers.

They called me trying to sell whatever junk. My phone is listed with the 800 do not call, and they called mr anyway. I hung up on the guy, and he had the audacity to call back and try again. I don't care what they're selling; I don't want any of my time wasted even with one phone call.

We attended yesterday at 33 Wood Avenue S, Suite 400, Iselin NJ at 5;45 PM. When we arrived at 4th floor, there was no sign of the iGlobe suite/room on the 4th floor. After struggling for few minutes, we found the room. There were only other two couples and there was hardly any material for presentation. The presentation was very poor and the guy did not answer my questions. They wanted 10K as membership fee for standard plan, which was reduced to 7K for another plan. Anyway, I was not convinced with their plan and it did not make any sense at all to buy their scheme. Finally we wanted our air ticket certificate and $100 restaurant coupon. When we cam home, we were ready to fill out the travel form for Fly America; however, we searched this website to find if there are any complaints against this company. To our surprise, it was true that this company seems to be a fraud and a scam. Interestingly, the $100 restaurant coupon was rejected. Thank god, we escaped a big scam. I think this company should be stopped from working. Thanks
