Complaint Review: Florida Leisure Products - FLP

I recieved a post card to attend a presentation and recieve 2 free domestic airline tickets. I called the 800 number and asked what it was about, which they said it was a manufacturer direct purchasing club.

Since the presentation was only advertised at 30 minutes, my wife and I attended, thinking we'd at least come away with a parting gift. We went to the hotel and listened to the 30 minute power point from a dramatic salesperson.

We chose to not buy into the GSN home shopping club at a shocking price of $2999-3999 and were the first to leave. You can search the Internet for GSN and find their stories and miseries.

I decided to take a chance on the free flight coupons, so I mailed in the form. Then they replied via mail that I had to include a $29.99 S&H fee and it had to be a Post Office Money Order. I should have stopped there.

The next mail indicated that the taxes for the tickets would be $100, which seemed fair. At that time I was to make my request for dates and destinations that they would choose based on availability. I sent another money order; after all they appeared to be working with me.

Nothing happened. I sent an email and got a reply that my request was in 'Ticketing'. A month later, nothing happened so I sent an email that got no response. In my last emails I requested a refund.

I'm 6 months into this apparent ripoff scheme. Please do not do 'business' with this company, which may show up anywhere.
