Vida Vacations.....Above The Law? (by Christie R.):

Vida Vacations ....Above The Law?

We are still trying to get the Mayan to issue a long overdue refund for selling a contract based on deceptive and fraudulent sales tactics. For those of you who don't know the Mayan no longer uses the infamous Rental/Resale list. Bravo!!!

Unfortunately I own a Mayan artifact of their deceptive past. The Mayan wants us to be quiet and learn to enjoy what they tricked us into buying, that is not going to happen. If they want us to be quiet they need to fix what they admit their sales team did to us. They think that by threatening us with legal consequences we will cower and go away. We have made every effort to resolve this dispute offline but they prefer to support their duplicitous sales team, so we are exercising our right to freedom of speech.

The Mayan enabled their sales teams to pitch us rental income all the while knowing it would never work. Their position is we should have been aware that their sales team was allowed to promote a benefit that was proven to be useless. As incredible as it sounds it's true. Anyone who has been on a Mayan sales presentation in the last 10 years can attest to the fact that rental income is a huge part of their presentation. We sent a letter to Cirque du Soleil informing them that The Mayan is abusing public trust and confidence by employing such tactics and are waiting for a response. To be clear Cirque has nothing to do whatsoever with the sales practices the Mayan uses....not at all. But it is a shame that the Mayan drops names such as Cirque, Nicklaus Golf, Greg Norman ect... to lead unsuspecting consumers into believing that their credibility is unquestionable, then they allow sales reps to deceive unsuspecting consumers and by the time you figure it out like me......it's too late.
