1. My husband and I were invited to attend a travel talk held by the Oriental Travels, Singapore.

2. We attended the presentation. We were shown that the company were able to purchases TOUR PACKAGES and resort accommodation at 40 � 60 % discount (figures highlighted by presenter ) on advertised in local newspapers though the elimination of middle agents.

3. We were told that we must take up the membership immediately in order to enjoy a lot of privileges.

4. The membership fee was quoted for $23,800. I paid a $5000 deposit, as demanded by the company.

5. After two months, we paid up the balance minus discounts, etc. The total fee I had paid was $17,730.

6 Few days later, I had asked Oriental Travels to arrange for the 10 days Turkey trip that we wanted to go initially. Comes the Surprise!!! The first quoted was :
i. $2070 to fly by Singapore Airline
ii. $1688 to fly by Gulf Airline.
iii. The tour was sourced from local tour companies.

7. Two days later, the cost was amended to $1598. The same package was advertised for the same amount by SA Tours.

8. We concluded that the company is not sincere.

9. We have totally lost confidence in the company.

10. We have seek CASE help us to recover our money.

11. I have make appointment to see a lawyer. Should I need witness, I hope you folks will be kind enough to step forward to testify. There is Strengh in Unity.
