Corporate Travel Aka Absolute Reservations Center ripoff, did not send confirmation of vacation to me after I sent them $58 reservation fee not to mention $348 for vac. packages!!!!!!!!!! Maitland, Florida
Okay, I paid $348 for this vacation package for "Ramada Resorts". I knew that there was a one time reservation fee of $58 and I knew that I would have to pay the port charges on the bahamas cruise. We got 4 vacations with this package BAhamas, Ft. lauderdale/daytona, orlando (where we were supposed to get free Disney World tickets, 2 now and 2 later when we went to the "Ramada Presentation". I also got a 4th vacation called a "mini vacation" that would have paid for a hotel stay in one of several destinations to choose from. Well, I sent them the $58 fee, the certificate for the mini vacation, stating Wisconsin Dells and the dates, with backup dates, that we wanted to use it for. I never received the confirmation that they said they would mail us on the reserved dates...although they cashed my check.
Now, that my husband and I are getting around to taking the additional vacations, we have discovered other hidden fees, there is no way to contact the "Absolute Reservation Center" any longer and they have removed the website they had from the net. I am PISSED and scared. I hate to feel that I have been scammed and it really infuriates me that these people are allowed to do this over and over and over again...each time they change their name or little details or file bankruptcy...
I just want my money back. I have not used any of this vacation and they have misrepresented themselves to me and have breached contract with me. They have cashed my check and charged our card and there has been no sense of customer service, no service for monies paid and after reading the other ripoff reports....of people who have actually went on these trips...I do not want to use the package. I don't know what I can do but, I guess my next step is contact my lawyer. I would be more than happy to pay for the lawyer to bury these b*stards and to drag their name through the mud. HELP!

When you mail in your mini vacation, there is a $20.00 activation fee due. We then mail you a reservation request form that allows you to picks dates and locations..you then mail that form to a company called Worldwide. Their information is clearly provided on the resv form as well as their number. Absolute does not "book" the bonus vacation, we do not send out confirmation of the dates on the bonus vac. We are still here with the same numbers, we have never changed names or files bankruptcy. Our website has been having a few glitches but we are in the midst of fixing that now.
