We attended one of their seminars held at keys hotel in november and after the presentation we took 5yrs membership from them at a price of rs.95000.
The things which were promised included
6n7d holiday at a premium category hotel for a family of 4 every year for 5 years including breakfast. The names listed included hotels like hyatt, radisson etc.
We will be required to pay amc of rs.7100 per year at the hotel for 6nights.
We can book holiday in india or foreign.
We can take advance holidays. Means we can club nights from future years to current year and avail longer holiday.
We can gift these nights to our friends and relatives.
We can buy nights for our friends at a price of rs.15000+7100 amc for 6n7d
The rooms promised were of studio type suitable for family of 4.
This was what was promised to us and below mentioned is what we actually got.
Hotels offered are of sub standard category.
Breakfast will be on chargeable basis.
We have to pay for extra bed as well.
We cannot consume nights in advance.
No option to buy nights for your friends as promised.
For international holiday they charge you an exchange fee of rs16000/room so if you are consuming 8 nights of yours and need two rooms for your family you need to pay 32000 as exchange fees for average hotels. We were told to pay an amount of rs 59000 for 8 nights as various charges for hotel which was available online for rs.67000 with same facilities. Mind you we have already paid 95000/30=3166/night as advance membership fees so the hotel which is online available for rs.67000 is being offered to me at rs.59000+[protected]*8)=84000. Very smart business indeed.
And all this is done as if they are doing a favor to you.
The promise local and international destinations but the truth is they dont even have any arrangements in mussoorie and kasauli.
You have to make do with whatever 3* hotels they may offer.
You cannot book more then 1 room per membership.
You will have to pay extra for kids and breakfast.
