Has anybody actually been a regular customer of Axis World Travel
(axisworldtravel.com)?

I'm curious on your experience?

I purchased their membership for a few thousand dollar, then I
returned it because it only had a 3 day return policy and I didn't get
a chance to really use it.

During the time I had it, I called them for quotes, and they were
incredible cheap. However, I didn't book it, so I don't know if the
transaction would of went smoothly.

stan

ps. Do not buy 123 free travel club ( 123freetravel.com ) they are
for sure a scam, deceptive, fraudulent, bogus, ripoff company.

Is that where you have travel arranged by the 3rd reich, fascist Italy
and Imperial Japan?

I think you should be glad you withdrew. I attended one of their
presentations and listened to their offer. Upon refusing, they continuely
pared the cost down to a fraction of the original. I still refused
because I knew nothing of their company and their stability and solvency.
I received a "Hawaiian" vacation as a gift for attending. Upon mailing a
processing fee of $378, I heard nothing back from the processing agency.
After a few calls to a number which had an answering machine so full of
messages I couldn't leave one, I contacted the state of Florida where the
processing agency for an "Identity Travel" was located. They informed me
that "Identity Travel" (at a location different from their mailing address
for the money order) had not renewed their license that expired several
months ago. Am trying to track down "Axis World Travel" to see what they
have to say. Do you have a phone and address for them? Pretty shady
operation so far.

How do I answer that question........
Did they royally rip us off, the answer to that would be yes.
Last year we did go to one of their presentations and allowed ourselves to be convinced that it was a good deal. We are members but have received NO SERVICE for our money. They don't return their calls or emails or faxes or letters. We have marked this up to one of our worst investments and shame on them. How else could we view it as we have invested money for NOTHING. It is not the incentive partners, as they (Nancy Walsh) claims is the problem, it is AXIS WORLD TRAVEL themselves. We have tried to get our money back, but they got what they were after. And they are members of the Arizona BBB.......... so? All that means is that they secure that they won't have issues with them when people complain. Like we did, to no avail. One of the people that has helped me deal with them said that they seem to be the typical timeshare scam artists. Hope that helps. I so wish that I had found this website before my three days were up.....
My experience with them had been just awful.

I have been trying to reach their Scottsdale Offie for days and am told someone will call back. Since yesterday the phone has been "busy"? I am looking into reporting them to the Attorney General.

Anyone have any luck contacting them?

How is this for a response from them.....

They did take the money and run.......

Dear Valued Axis Member:

We would like to take this opportunity to express our thanks to you for your
participation in our travel program.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, members in good standing with Axis have been
transferred to Ocean Blue and Associates, Inc., a leader in the travel and
wholesale industry.

Axis World Travel will no longer have direct contact with members nor will the
numbers or addresses in your membership kit be valid. Our corporate office is
closed. As of the end of October the website will no longer be operational.
Unfortunately if you were offered an incentive for joining, it will not be
honored at this time. Any refunds due will be handled accordingly.

Incentive certificates issued directly by an outside incentive company will be
handled directly through that company.

Please send all questions, comments, and requests to axismembers@hotmail.com and
you will be sent information in a timely fashion. The owner of Axis wants
nothing more than for you to be able to use the membership you have purchased
and therefore has seen to it that with the closure of Axis, you will still have
the benefits you expect to receive.

Ocean Blue and Associates offers many of the same programs Axis offered as well
as added benefits such as weekly emails, condos that you may book ONLINE, and
much more.

Please contact Ocean Blue and Associates to get your new member number and your
username and passwords, so you can start receiving your benefits today. Ocean
Blue and Associates welcomes our members and when you call to activate your new
membership, they will be glad to answer any questions you may have.

Please be patient as Ocean Blue expects slight delays due to the amount of
members being contacted. Please mention you are an Axis member being
transferred due to the recent closure of Axis World Travel. If it is more
convenient, you may email members@obavip.com and list a good time you may be
reached.

Your new website is www.obavip.com go to the Travelines link to get started.
You will have limited access until you are given your username and passwords.

Call 1-866-684-2522 to activate your membership TODAY, have your Axis member
number ready!

We apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced in regards to the recent
transition. Please be assured that you will appreciate the service you receive
with Ocean Blue and Associates.

Ocean Blue and Associates has no affiliation with Axis World Travel and reserves
the right to refuse service to anyone. You will be required to adhere to the
Terms of Use sent to you by Ocean Blue and Associates. You will be sent any
member materials needed to use your membership directly by Ocean Blue and
Associates, Inc.

Please look for specials sent to you by reservations@obavip.com

Thank you,
Member Services

I would like to be a part of any class action suit. They have done nothing
for us that we couldn't do ourselves. When I did threaten to sue, the lady
got very testy with me and informed me that I didn't have a leg to stand
on because of the contract.

I attended their seminar, signed up for a membership and cancelled it after
3 days asking for a full refund. This was 10 weeks ago and I have not
received anything. Apparently their phone, email etc. is not working
anymore.

Has anyone filed a complaint with the AG?

Has anyone claimed a small claim?

What is the staus on possible class action lawsuits?

Has anyone located them?

According to the California Secretary of State Business Portal
http://kepler.ss.ca.gov/corpdata/Sh...Number=C2657694
they are still active

What can we do in order to get our money back???

This is beyond disgusting.
I want to take action.
It is not just about the monetary loss.
PLEASE, PLEASE rally with me in seeking
retribution. Maybe we share attorney cost OR
expose them for what they are. I have a friend
(professional on -air reporter) with inside contacts
at NBC networks in Phoenix,Tucson,Dallas,L.A. &
San Diego willing to go to bat for me.

I can understand where you are in your frustration. Have you read all the
posts? There is also a site called
"badbusinessbureau.com/reports/ripoff120759.htm" I read a post from an
ex-employee. She has filed a complaint with AZ Attorney General. I have
filed with AZ Attorney General also, which you can do on line. If you
look up Axis World Travel on Google it is still coming up with travel
sites. ?? Don't feel alone, but if all get together maybe something can
be done to prevent future scams like this.
