I sat through the 90 minute presentation and thank god did not fall for it. I did expect the reward at the end. I was promised a travel voucher for two airline tickets. The process to get these tickets is going through yet another company trying to sell you (Passport to travel). They ask you to send in a voucher with a $4.95 check and then they will send your vocher. The voucher arrives 30 days later with a request of a $100 money order to "reserve" your flight, another 30-45 days. The next step is another $59 per ticket fee to see if the flight is available. The flights are limited and they charge you $200-$300 in service fees. The entire process took months and the flights ended up being more than a regulary booked flight. Don't waist your time or money on either company. They are both scams! read more

Update: After we contacted our bank, the bank contacted DV365. A few days later the transaction was reversed and removed from our charge card account. Therefore, in this transaction DV365 acted appropriately and I give them an additional star for their responsible behavior. I truly wish that during the sales seminar the DV365 staff had told the truth, because I liked their value proposition and really wanted their offering to be real enough to risk the multiple-thousand dollar investment that was called for. read more

We received this marketing letter about the meeting under the name of US Airlines That has nothing to do with the actual business of this company, making my wife thinking that came from US Airways as a promotion! The meeting was long and full of promises!! Saying about a 24 Hotline and concierge. Thanks god we tried the number that nobody knew nothing about the deal and the problems. The website referred the reader to an online tour that did not exist on the web page. The customer service gave different numbers and VIP line that nobody knew what it was about?! Thanks for the input and reviews by other customers about this company misguiding those interested in traveling . read more

We purchased the membership a year ago with Destination Vacations 365. At the time their was no BBB rating on them. They were a fairly new company. Now in May 2014, they have an F rating. That is a warning in itself! As in the other reviews, we did find the free airline or hotel giveaways for signing up were not free. Our ourlines deal never came through. We finally got a partial refund, but coud not get a full one on the $100 paid just to book a "free" flight. The problem we experienced with the flight deal was one week prior to our flight request date, they still had not responded so we had to book on our own due to already having the hotel book and plans for our trip. They said we could not make another request for a different flight location and time. You get one shot and only one shot at it. Supposively the $25 we lost was their processing fee, but they never processed anything. Yes, we had to pay the $4.95 too that others mentioned. so we lost $29.95 there, but all the time with the back and forth emails and phone calls trying to get the airlines reservations booked. The hotel deal of 2 nights free that we received too as a bonus offer finally came through in May, but the deal was we had to sit through a time share company's spill for 2 hrs. Can you believe that one!! We still had to pay the taxes on the hotel, which was not bad. Over all that was OK. We did have to pay $50 in advance and the hotel taxes of $27 to get the two nights "free". Bottom line, nothng is really for free. I do know now that Destination Vacation 365 says they have no offiliation with the company we had to deal with for the hotel stay or airline flights or the time share company that we had to deal with to get the free hotel stay, but I do think they should know who they are dealing with if they are offering it as a bonus offer to sign up with them. After having to deal with these other companies, it goes give us a bad taste in our mouth for Destination Vacations 365. As for the great prices on hotel stays with Destinations Vacations 365, we have only used them once so far and I did find that I could get about the same price with Travolosity or Expedia without having to pay for a $2,500 membership. Frankly, I feel like we were suckers to have ever bought a membershiop now and their BBB F rating really concerns me now. My husand are considering canceling this membership and just accept our losses before we loose more money, so we have not paid our annual fee of $199 yet. We called to say we wanted to put our membership on hold for now due to medical reasons anyway this year. (When it was sold to us, they said this could be done.) The rep seemed to be understanding and said the account would be noted of this request, but to understand there could be a reactivation fee added adn we would have to reactivate it within a year. We were OK with that, but now we are still getting harrassing calls from their collections office for our annual dues demanding payment. Just crazy! Also, I have learned that the reservations booking office is a diffferent company from the sales office, and so is the billing office. All different companies completely. Apparently Destinations Vacations 365's location in TN is just a sales office. You will deal with other companies after that that they contract out. By the way, I check the BBB rating on the company that sent out the annual bill and they have an F rating too. This is the company that calls us a few times a week harrassing us for the annual payment now. My husband said a few choice words to the agent on their last call to us out of frustration. My advice to anyone considering Destination Vacaitons 365, it is best not to deal with them. I can't see that it has been worth our money we paid out at this point. There are too many free sourcs out there on the web to book at reduced prices on hotels, resorts and cruises to have to pay all this extra money. Once you pay all the fees. read more

http://www.wmctv.com/story/17737347/the-investigators-ticket-to-trouble Please google this company (reservation Services International), Destination Vacation changed their name to 365 from 360. The parent company is Reservation Services International and it would be wise to do an internet search beyond the link above. When my husband and i sat through the seminar, we were excited at many of the potential trips at reduced rates and we knew we had 24 hours to cancel (which we did) after our research and discrepencies in the presentation of their company. There is no BBB rating and it's certainly not A+ or B-. Despite all those reasons, we complied with their cancellation policy and I'm still fighting almost 14 days later to get them to even notify our credit card company to refund the amount. That means they are tying up our credit to make their own numbers look better, don't float our money for 2 weeks or more!! Oh, you'll get a call back, even from a manager (Kyle is who I spoke with) BUT their promises never pan out. When you're getting a refund from any organization, it almost always shows up next day as 'pending'. One of the interesting tactics are notifying your/their personal travel agent, which we did right away to ask them to search a trip AND/OR have them tell us about the deals you have on the table right now. They couldn't even do the later which was suspect and conveniently wait until after the 24 hour cancellation process to give you any feedback. We of course were wise to that and cancelled in time but decided to play their game to see when they got back to us. They called every day saying that they were 'still looking'! Then we were told about their "smokin hot deals" and when we asked to find out about that same "Vail" trip, it was over 4K instead of the $400 something that they touted for a weeks stay with lift tickets. BUYER BEWARE!! The tacky marketing letter that came out raised all sorts of red flags but when you call, they assure you it's not any kind of a time share............I love traveling and usually never fall for the scam but we both thought there was great possibility until we did our research. DO YOUR RESEARCH! The really frustrating part is still trying to get our money refunded! read more

I just sat through their 90 minute presentation.I did not buy and am glad I didnt. The name on their marketing material did not match the name of the company nor the reservation service for their supposed free tickets. I researched the company when I got home and there is no BBB rating as opposed to the A+ in their presentation. The fine print to cash in on the free tickets are outlandish and not previously disclosed. They provided no phone number for follow up. I think it is a complete scam read more

I can't believe I just threw away close to $5,000 on Destination Vacation 365's SCAM! My husband and I were so excited at the possibility of traveling at a rate we could afford now that we are retired. We have worked hard all our lives to raise our children and save our money so we could enjoy ourselves. Our salesman, John Brown was "slick" and knew the right buttons to push. The entire 90 minute presentation turned out to be bogus as well as the gift voucher for 2 airline tickets worth up to $1,300. in the continental United States (3 failed attempts to collect). On 4 different occasions I have tried to use either the hotel or cruise "deals" through Destination Vacation 365 and found that I could purchase them much cheaper directly through the cruise lines, Costco or the internet. I called to cancel my membership and get my money back and was told basically, too bad. Where else can one go to file a complaint? I'm sure my money is gone, which is my motivation to join a class action law suit against this company and shut them down so they can't defraud other people with their lies. read more

Yikes, we are also waiting on an adjustement of $4500! Cancelled within the 24 hours and odd we cannot reach anyone to talk to about this! This will be disputed with my credit card company if someone doesn't refund my account soon! read more

BUYER BEWARE - NOTHING THEY SAY IS TRUE. The marketing company hired by Destination Vacation made us believe we would receive two free airline tickets if we attended a 90 minute presentation. We found out at the very end of the presentation that there is a $109 fee from the marketing company per ticket just to use the tickets on top of the "other fees". The PowerPoint presentation indicated that Destination Vacation has a A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau (BBB), able to provide 35 - 75 percent cheaper hotels, resorts, cruises and condos from around the world. After the price going from $8,000 to $2300 and four hours later we were foolish enough to sign on the dotted line. Once we got home we did a little research. First looking at the BBB web site Destination Vacation rating is a "D" not a A+ as informed. The next day we were given a temporary password to look at supposedly great deals on the Saveonresort.com web site. Disappointed again on several fronts. i had a business trip to South Carolina and was able to obtain a better rate calling the hotel myself. I also checked on a Alaskan cruise for June 2014. The price on Travelocity was the same price as the web site. And if you want to purchase airline tickets they sent you to the web site Kayak.com. Another one of their selling points is Concierge type service. I tried the VIP number three different times throughout the day and was placed on hold for over fifteen minutes and then the line went dead. Luckily for me my wife found a form within all the paperwork that we had five business days to cancel our policy. Gee they never told us during the presentation. We forwarded the required paperwork and followed up with a phone call. I was finally able to talk to Ryan who indicated he would cancel our membership within 3-4 business days. I kinda got the feeling from Ryan's voice of "here is another cancellation". Currently we have received an email from Destination Vacation of our intent to cancel our membership but still no credit back to our credit card account. We will see..... read more

What a joke! We go to the presentation and spend 90 minutes listening to "slick Willie" talk about the program. It's a very orchestrated presentation and they prey on the gullible. We get there and they hook us up with one of the salespeople...each couple is handled this way. Gives us the warm and fuzzy and then the presentation starts. After, we are told it's $9995 for a four week premium package. That's almost $400 per day...and airfare is NOT included. I could do better shopping on my own with the amenities I want. So we say no thanks and they give us a voucher for our "free" airline tickets. It's not free...you have to pay $4.95 to get the Activation packet. Then you have to send in $50 per ticket. The after waiting for them to send you another batch of information you have to pay another $59 per ticket processing fee. You are at their mercy if they decide to accept your travel plans. And it's not good at all International Airports...only about a dozen around the county. We were told we would also get a bonus travel offer because we were driving 45 miles, one way, to attend the presentation. Yeah right. Everyone got the same deal. If you get a mailer saying you get the travel vouchers, and they fool you by listing Delta Sky Miles, don't waste your time. We decided to cut our loses at our time wasted and throw out the useless and costly voucher. read more

Don't waste your time with this scam of a company. My wife and I sat through this presentation last summer basically for the "free" airline tickets. How bogus. $5 for a processing fee....$50 a ticket for another fee......more fees down the road. I stopped after losing my $105. Then I get a call from the company that my wife and I WON a "free" lifetime membership......But is cost like $350 or so to get started which included your 1st year annual cost. I have called these scam artists 6 times for help on a vacation and they have yet to get back to me......but in the meantime I have received 3 phonecalls telling me that if I renew early that I get 500 bonus bucks or points. I laughed and told them to forget it. They will take your money and run. I figure I lost about $460 with this scum of a company. They helped me get a hotel room 1 night in Minneapolis but afterwards I found out I could do much better on my own. These guys are a joke. Don't believe a WORD they say to you. Don't waste your time going to the presentation. I am cancelling my membership in the morning. read more
