United Vacations International Reviews
We stayed at Tesoro Resort in downtown Cabo San Lucas Mexico in January. In March my wife received a call from United Vactions pretending to be Tesoro Resort. We have never done business with UVI so assume they got our contact information from Tesoro and cold called us. Lie number one, they are not Tesoro. They sold my wife on a package of 3 nights for $249 for which we would have to sit through a high pressure time share pitch to qualify. This is about $83 per night.
We only spent $90 per night in January and got free breakfast for 2. There offer would require us to give up 1/3 of our vacation being sold more time share and included no breakfast. My wife was led to believe by the phone caller that breakfast was included. Their paperwork arrived the next day and was clear that breakfast was $10 per person per day and extra days would be $100 or $120 with breakfast. Not a good deal. No harm done. I called the next morning and cancelled. But unlike ligitimate businesses coast to coast, they don't allow cancellation. $249 down the tubes. They offered free breakfast when I threatened to cancel, confirming the lie told on the phone.
Chase bank has been complicite in this scam. Where are cancellation rights privided by every internet travel web site and hotel chain. And by all airlines. Virtually all legitimate internet businesses offer 24 hour cancellation. Legitimate time share companies offer a 3 day right of rescision. Chase was alerted 12 hours after the initial contact but to this point in time maintains the charge on our credit card. Buyer beware:
1. Don't buy time share over the phone. You can get 3 to 5 nights free in Cabo if you sign up for time share presentation there. UVI is selling you the presentation (you get to pay to sit through a time share ) and keeping the premiium money for themselves.
2. Don't trust your credit card company to stand behind you when you make a phone purchase or an interenet purchase
3. This is the big warning: Never do busines with United Vacations International out of San Diego, California. They are liers and scammers selling air. Keep your money. Only pay for a hotel after you have stayed in it. Never pay for future nights you might never use.
