Re: Royal HOliday is a scam (by Tony S.):
Yes Ken, jurisdiction takes precedent on where the offence( scam) took place. In Canada , offenders can waive jurisdiction on condition of a guilty plea in another province however this is for Criminal Code offences.
Under the Consumer protection act in Canada we have 90 days to appeal for a refund . Im not familiar to how the court system operates in the D.R . and secondly I have some apprehensions if a judgement could be obtained in the D.R. on a Mexican based company,notwithstanding the appeal process.
Im appalled that these resorts would allow them to set up shop but it is evident that R.H is paying good $$$ to these resorts to operate. Im sure their overhead is low based on the cost of living for their employees. Dont kid yourself the resort itself is resolved of any blame knowing full well of the scam.
I recall seeing at least 20 R.H. reps. daily combing the resort for potential clients. The day after I signed ,one came up to me and offered day trips and cocaine. I played along and having been with Drug Enforcement for 20 yrs I was curious and somewhat familiar with their local prices. I laughed as he was asking 60% more over market value for street level prices. I did report him and they acknowledged he was involved in this activity but had warned him to stop. All they did was remove him and relocated him to another resort.
Needless to say I have refrained from paying my annual fee and continue to get Collection threats as they have increased my penalty up to 30% .
