Complaint Review: Global Vacation Network

I was invited to attend a presentation for a new travel agent in town in exchange for some free travel vouchers. I sat through their slimy sales pitch which wasn't even about a travel agent anyway, but travel software. They wouldn't let me look at the software so that I could compare prices with other similar programs. I declined to buy and the sales manager got very mad that I wanted to leave with my gifts. Nevertheless, I was able to finally go. You have to go through so many steps trying to redeem these "gifts" and they are so confusing, even for a young professional! My "free" hotel trip was going to end up costing me more than if I booked through Expedia. I never could get them to deliver on the free airfare. I called to talked to them about the hotel, but they refused to acknowledge the pricing was bad, and continued trying to convince me it was a deal. I have certainly learned my lesson the hard way when it comes to these sales pitches. This is my third time around the block. I'm done with this stuff altogether.
