Just got an ignorant / immature call ....

This evening, the phone rings and I answer. "Hello". I said, "Yes. I. Schnettle please". The voice said. Right then, I knew, anyone calling for my husband would use his cell phone, so, this HAS to be a telemarketer. I asked, "may I ask to what this is regarding?". The male voice says, "If she wanted you to know, she'd tell you!" I didn't understand, and said, "What??" That's when the coward paused....then hung-up.

Of couse, I had to know who called. I pressed *69 (which is a feature on the phone, that allows me to know who called.) The number, I then dialed. That lead me right to, you guessed it, GEO HOLIDAYS, located at 51 International Blvd., Etobicoke, ON.

Smart callers, wouldn't do this to themselves. Really, failing to block out the phone number of the company. Anyway, I suggest we call them and tie up their lines....MAKE THEM REALLY WORK!

THEIR TORONTO (ETOBICOKE), ONTARIO NUMBER IS: 416 964 2158.

Smile GeoHoliday is not a scam - won $10,000

We filled out a ballot for a GeoHoliday promotion to win a Mercedes Benz or $10,000 in May 2005. Then we received a call from GeoHoliday to come to a timeshare presentation. My husband and I thought “why not go, you never know what might happen”. We were there for 90 minutes, had some refreshments then when we were leaving we won a gift for a 3 days 2 nights vacation to Quebec. We were very pleased however I said to my husband, “we likely won’t win the car or the money because we already went to the presentation.” But when we received a call at the end of March 2006 from a GeoHoliday representative that we had won the 2005 Mercedes Benz or $10,000 promotion, and that we should take our time to decide which one we wanted. Since we didn’t want to take the car because it’s a two year lease we preferred the $10,000. Although we called GeoHoliday back to tell them our decision, we still didn’t believe it. My husband said to me: we will believe it when we have the check in our hands.” Soon after we got another call from a GeoHoliday representative who invited us to their marketing office in downtown Toronto. We were very nervous and still couldn’t believe that this was really happening to us. When we arrived they took our picture, congratulated us, and gave us the $10,000 check which we are already planning to use to vacation in Trinidad and Guyana this summer. After that when we left the GeoHoliday office I said my husband that “in all the time since we’ve been in Canada we never experienced such first-class treatment”. We had such a great experience with GeoHoliday that we would like to share our story with everyone. Again, we would like to thank GeoHoliday for everything.

I am so happy to read your post

hahahahaha
Good for you, wish you could enjoy the timeshare for the rest of your life. How much point did you buy from Geo? How much did you cost? Why didn't you mention that? If you don't buy anything, you don't have the chance to have the lucky draw.

MERCEDES BENZ PATHETIC PAWNS

Mercedes Benz Pathetic Pawns

Even if you do say you won $10,000 for nothing, it pales in comparison with the hundreds of thousands of dollars that has been bilked out of innocent people.

Of course they have to do something to reverse all the negative publicity and will have to find a "PAWN" to do it. Well guys, looks like you were the lucky "PAWNS" if there's any truth to what you claim, and you must have a highly seared conscience to be able to sleep at night knowing you were used to try and convince others who are still unaware, to buy their miserable product and service.

Well, enjoy your "BLOOD MONEY" and sleep well in your bed of hell's fire.

geo scam

Went to one of those high-pressured sales presentations tonight in Richmond Hill where they showed a video with Rod Black promoting club membership....gee, I wonder how much he paid for his membership? ...... Rod Black, you should be ashamed of yourself!!!! I will never believe another word that comes out of Rod Black's mouth....imagine willingly associating yourself with this scamming outfit!! Not a good career move, in my opinion.

I am contacting the media tomorrow - GEO Holiday people are the most underhanded low-lifes I've ever seen - the "closer" was extremely rude and when he saw we weren't going to hand over our $20,000 to him he got up and brusquely stormed out of the cubicle without saying a word.

The best was when I voiced my opinion that the resort offerings were extremely limited, he said "Well we have over 250,000 resorts (from the RCI catalogue and you have to pay over $200 booking fee to reserve) available all over the world - what travel agency can you go to that has resorts all over the world you can book into?!!! DUH - "Every travel agency" I said and he said "Yeah but you have to pay to book with them!!"" What kind of illogical goofy statement is that??!!

We finally made our escape and they escorted us into the "prize" room where we proceeded to draw from a huge drum, stuffed with at least a hundred thousand 4th prize tickets -- gee, we drew the lowest-value prize -- surprise surprise!! The attendant didn't even pay attention to me as I walked over to draw out the 4th rated prize -- do ya' think she already knew which one I would draw??!! When I asked her how do I know there were any other tickets in there but 4th rated ones, she became extremely indignant and said that the company's been "in business" for 22 years. I argued that that alone does not prove to me that there are any tickets in there for anything other than the lowest-valued prize" she told us to leave by the side door. We were tempted to survey everyone else who came out that door, but it was too cold to stand there (-15 degrees Celsius) for any longer than a few seconds.

We didn't hear any cheering though tonight, so they probably didn't sell many packages. I hope everyone who gets a phone call telling them they've entered a draw and have won a free vacation checks this website out first before they go.

BEWARE - they do not ever give you the whole story and always be wary when they tell you that you have to buy that evening - the "special offer" is only good for TODAY!! Yeah, like I'm going to drop $20 grand (have to earn $40 grand to begin with) without doing any more research.....but I can see why people cave - the loud music, the high pressure tactics ...the salesman who will not keep quiet long enough for you to get out your question or a statement....who argues with you and is very rude.....constant scribbling....playing little games with you that force you to agree that their product concept is great.....

STAY AWAY from GEO HOLIDAY!!! They are big-time scammers!!!!

You are smart, but not everyone is.

The thing is member are growing, but the resort are not built that fast. It is harder and harder to reserve a vacation.

All thier promises are bull shit. Liar and liars.
