Re: Vida Vacations & Grand Mayan lies (by Laura B.):

Good for you! What credit card company? Since we got taken years ago there is probably nothing we can do. If anyone hears of an attorney in Mexico that is willing to take them on, let us know!

WE WON BACK OUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!

I just wanted to let you know, we won our dispute against VIDA, and this is how we did it. We had already put our deposit down and were 1 month into our fees (about 3 months into our contract). We started a dispute with our credit card company and blocked any further charges from VIDA. We lost the initial dispute because they provided our signed contract. But then the credit card company gave us an opportunity to CONTEST THE CHARGES AFTER LOSING THE DISPUTE. We wrote in an-depth response of how fraudulent VIDA is, citing the number of websites/forums talking about how scam-worthy they are and our experience with not being able to travel outside of Mexico, not being able to use our VIDA dollars for travel as promised, how they would turn off the recording every time we asked a question, etc. And OUR CREDIT CARD COMPANY REFUNDED ALL OF OUR MONEY!!!! No joke. Every last dime. The kicker is that our credit card company is the one that took the hit, since VIDA still got to keep our deposit. However, I am hoping this put a major red flag on Vida's name for any one else using our credit card company!!
