I am replying to these latest bouts of accusations. First of all Kelly Price has nothing whatsoever to do with any past dealings on this Forum. Her name has been brought in over and over again and she has been completely innocent in anything to do with this. Kelly has had a totally legitimate business which she had worked extremely hard at. As Kelly’s name has been on the Business and the Advertising and marketing, dealings taking place involved in the running including myself people thought they were always dealing with her, which was not the case. As again with all businesses, some very Bad choices were made by people involved in the running of the business, again including myself. which Kelly was not aware of or party to where her name was used and she had no involvement or knowledge of the transactions taking place.
Certain issues arose, as all businesses face, especially when other parties have let you down which you have no control over. The sudden devaluation of the Pound against the dollar when Brexit hit meant losing almost of third of the value of agreed contracts in place in Pounds needing to be honored against the outgoing costs required to be paid out in dollars to perform them now at a third more than received in. This had a big impact on the business and rather than understanding and working with the fact that these were just business situations which affected so many in the Industry that multi companies closed down, people took this as a personal attack on Kelly with the belief anything that went wrong in the business was her personally trying to defraud them when Kelly was not even the person involved in transactions taking place.
By being able to track her name back to connections to this Forum even though she had no direct involvement in anything to do with it people directed accusations that she personally set out to scam them. As has happened on this Forum. People with their own Agenda used this information to make false, misleading and fake posts on Trip Advisor many accusing her or the business of wrong doing who have never had any involvement with the business or her, as they had on this Forum simply to Cyber Bully or cause and spread Social Media Defamity.. They have also illegally made up fake Facebook pages and emails using the Company Logo and information to set up a Business Facebook in the name of the Company. If this can be done what other fake and false posts have been made on Forums and sites. There is a proven track record of 100s of guests having great villa stays and receiving ticket orders. Each customer is sent direct references of past guests who have stayed in the villa before they book to check out before parting with any money. However, it is portrayed that the website was set up simply to take people’s money and scam them, this is not the case. Where the company has been let down by third parties on ticket orders , there is a proven track record of working to replace or reimburse and it takes time to recover from such loses. Unfortunately, people will read a few remarks which are not true or misleading and take that as 100% truth.
Most of the Trip Advisor negative posts started when a post was made by a party claiming they never received their tickets and was permitted to duplicate this post on several pages. You may wonder why you cannot see any replies from the Company in defending this, the reason being Trip Advisor blocked every attempt made, along with blocking and removing positive posts made by parties who had great stays. However, if rather than reading all the negative posts from people who had no direct dealings and look at all the posts, you will see that the Company who sent her the tickets, which she indeed received and used at the Parks posted a message on the Forum directly asking her why she was misleading people accusing of Kelly scamming her while she in fact had received her tickets and used them. Trip Advisor are well aware of this, as they have had the proof that shows her ticket numbers and her use of them at the Parks, yet refuse to remove the negative libelous claims by yet another person making false accusations making numerous posts to do so aiming them directly as a Personal attack on her.
This is why there is a massive Class action against Trip advisor for not only doing this to the Company, also to 1000s of other individuals and Companies who have been subjected to Social Media Defamation and Cyber Bullying as they run what is supposed to be an independent Forum from a non-interested party, when they are indeed behind most of the major Travel Companies and their Destination Experts go on to Forums to write negative and defamity against a business that is not part of the Trip Advisors paid programs. It is just odd why after already having had references from past guests, checked them out to be true and valid, then go on to make posts on Trip Advisor acting as if they had not already spoken or had validated proof people had genuinely booked with the Company and had great stays, perhaps this is a complete set up to begin with. Whilst there are some genuine claims which were brought about when things had gone wrong, show a business where everything goes right 100% of the time. The small percentage affected when things did go wrong have and are being worked on as all businesses do and one by one being settled. It does not mean that the 95% where things have gone right did not have a great stay. If you look on Trip Advisor you may see many posts removed by them. We have the screen shots of these by people who did post positive things and were removed after, otherwise it could have reflected the fact that whilst there were some affected a vast majority had a genuine good experience.
This is a long email and irrespective of what is written in here people will always want to believe the bad, then looking further and finding the good.
Kelly passed the business over some time ago for it to be run. She has no involvement in the day to running of it. She never has and never will scam people.
