We cannot do a mass email because not every member is waiting on a rebate so we felt that would be confusing to those members. Mass emails are either all or none.

He is out of the hospital now which is why rebates are beginning to be sent this Friday. Unfortunately, he did not have a plan in case of something like this. However, there is a plan in place now should this occur again. The business is fine and will be regardless of what health issues occur. It was just a signature issue and because he is very "hands on", he wants to see all rebates and sign checks himself. Because of the long time frame and everything else he came back to, they are being sent each Friday until are complete.

We are very sorry and will get the rebate sent as soon as possible. And thank you for the kind words. We are happy he is better.

Thanks for the quick reply. You are right, it was about 2 1/2 months that I contacted you all, not 4 months. Which as a business you said it would be 4-6 weeks for us to get our refund.

Since I am a nurse and understand medical conditions...

with out you sounding defensive or upset... as you said, there where thousands affected, couldn't you do a bulk mailing, like what has been done like the "Hot spots", couldn't you?

My other concern now is If the OWNER is so gravely ill, what is your plan should he die? Does the business stop? As he/she obviously could not do anything then, is there a contingency? because as you said his/her health prevented this to get done, it is concerning to me and the thousands of us! And will we be notified of his deterioration of his health.

Thanks for taking the time to try and reassure me and address my concerns.

I will keep him/her (and you) in prayer for their health and recovery, that the business and job continue to flourish. As their health changes which probably affects your livelihood as well.

Jay

We received your request on
October 17, 2 and half months ago, not 4. But like I said, we are very sorry for the delay. It was out of our hands and unfortunately, with thousands of members, we were not able to notify everyone individually.

Really,
it's been 4 months? How can that be? AND you never kept us apprised that there was going to be a delay?

All rebates were delayed due
to
owner illness and hospitalization. We
are beginning to send them this Friday and all should be sent by end of month.

STILL WAITING! WTH IS THE PROBLEM NOW? MY MOTHER BOOKED HER CRUISE THRU COSTCO AND A CHECK CAME IN THE MAIL THE WEEK AFTER SHE RETURNED - WITHOUT HER EVEN HAVING TO REQUEST IT. THEY HAVE HER TRAVEL DATES, AS DO YOU, YET THEY HAVE SEEMED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO FOLLOW THRU ON THEIR COMMITMENTS. THIS COMPANY IS A TOTAL RIP-OFF! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED! (OH, AND OF COURSE, YOU CAN ONLY EMAIL THEM. THEY WON'T ACCEPT PHONE CALLS REGARDING REBATES. I WONDER WHY...DISGUSTING!)

Andrea,

We have received your cruise receipt and will issue your rebate as soon as possible. It typically takes approximately 30 - 60 business days for the rebate to be processed back to our wholesalers, then mailed back to you.

We have been waiting since May 2018 for a rebate on our hotel stay in Warsaw April 2018. Perhaps this is now time to contact the Better Business Bureau.

We have been waiting for our rebate for a stay in April 2018 at Hotel Mamaison Regina in Warsaw. I have called over and over with no results. I am beginning to think this all needs to be reported to the Better Business Bureau. We are never going to recoup our initial investment if this continues. 8.7.18 MN90901579

We have been waiting for our rebate since October 2017. We have only received one small check for $255 rather that the $1786 which we were suppose to receive. And, why couldn't we receive the full amount the first time we requested it. What in the heck is going on? What kind of business is this?

We are still waiting for a call that was promised many weeks ago about our rebate from a cruise that ended in October 2017. I am definitely concerned that none of us will ever get the rebate money. Ron Stuewe

When did he get out of the hospital and begin sending out the rebates; because it is now April 18, 2018, and I still haven't received my rebate from my November 2017 trip.
