] Date Posted: Tue, Nov 02 2004, 0:15:02 1998- conned to buy calpyso plaza 1 bedroom resort for 17.8k after extremely high pressure sales. 1999- was called by them to "review" my membership and suggest that i upgrade to a "red week" for 7k! but I rejected. 2000- A "timeshare resale" company called me up and promise to sell my timeshare membership in a year with an admin fee of $388( John Tan was the director of the company, he keeps changing his company names). $388 WAS CONNED BY this timeshare company, inter resort...if i can still remember the company name. 2002- Peter Tan called me again and propose a "cash back" scheme where i have to surrender my timeshare cert to him plus an admin fee of $388....oh again! i rejected.... luckily 2004-LGM called me up and offer me CVC membership and i rejected. They offered me "cash back" scheme and i rejected again. For your information, the cash back scheme is 50k! and the cvc membership 13k! To me, timehshare cert are just worthless piece of paper, worse still, they may threaten you for legal action if you fail to pay them the maintanance fee even though you intend to give up your membership. Some go as far to threaten members that their children must still pay them maintanance fee after they die..... good way to inherit this shit to our children, ah? To all timehare dealers,DON'T YOU HAVE A LIFE?! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |

Date Posted: Thu, Nov 04 2004, 22:00:09 I am still paying for my instalment plan for Asian Travel Club. I am planning to go for holiday after paying in full for the membership cert. Is Interval Resort Network really con people?? confused?? Eric, Did you go for your holiday in calpyso plaza -Australia? I got a cheeky suggestion. If they want you to upgrade your membership, ask the salesman for his bank account and any collateral(house) he can give you for parting your money. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: Fri, Nov 05 2004, 22:55:14 I am in the same position as you. I was conned on May 2001 into buying Calypso Plaza. I was trying to help out this salesgirl (in her teens) who told me to play along with her on the sratch card promotional deal. She told me that the prize I won for myself was a holiday trip to Bali, a $40 voucher (CKTANG) and to claim it I just have to attend a talk which they say is abt 30min. I was so very naive then. The talk lasted 4 hr. 6pm to 10pm. By then I was wasn;t think straight. The Cashback Scheme is yet another ploy to con people to fork out more money. I wish the authority will do something abt it. Maybe get it feature on the "GET REAL" prog at CNA. A word of advice to all ... don't sign anything which you do not want. I have been regreting ever since. The people working there at Ngee Ann City HQ (LGM - Lies, Gags, Misrepresentation) are sub-humans. They are criminals and they ought to be put in jail and the keys thrown into the sea.
