The following describes our encounter with NH Krystal Cancun on September 2008. Upon arriving at Cancun airport we were greeted near the airport exit by DIEGO CARBALLO SANDOVAL. He offered us free tickets in exchange to attend a free breakfast. When we asked if this was for a time share, he said no, it was not. At the hotel, their salesman ERIC GUERRERO offered to sell us membership to their Krystal International Vacation Club (KIVC). When we asked again if this was a time share, he said no, it was not, it was a vacation club and something better. After breakfast, he showed us his program and he offered us 13 Power Weeks and 17 K-Plus Weeks at Krystal, HE GUARANTEED that we could rent those weeks for $700 USD per week. Then, he made offers like: (A) He described this as a good investment opportunity because we could get all our initial payment back and more within 3 years. (B) He said also there were no annual maintenance fees and we would only pay when we use our weeks . (C) We could rent a room at all the expensive hotels in the R.C.I. book for just $399USD per week for up to 6 people. (D) We can sell my friends time share in Las Vegas for a good market value and the proceeds from that would repay our money back for the purchase of the KIVC membership. When we asked again if the rental money is guaranteed, their salesman ERIC GUERRERO said it was GUARANTEED. He said that their partner Regal Rentals and Resales would be able to list and rent out our weeks with no problem. It was too good to be true, so we decided to sign the paperwork. To our dismay, all the benefits their salesman Eric Guerrero said we would get with the KIVC membership were turning out to be untrue. We called Krystal to complain, the Quality Assurance manager RAY RUBIO took our call, he denied the existence of any such promises and he was rude to us. We felt completely betrayed and worry constantly that the sensitive information we gave them during the purchase of the membership would be abused, we were DECEIVED and LIED TO with their DECEITFUL SALES PRACTICES and MISLEADING INFORMATION. Here's a helpful website for those who are thinking to get close to Krystal Cancun: (((Redacted))) aliu.

I rescind all statements made against Resort Solutions INC. Resort Solutions INC. has worked with us to resolve this issue and in no way should they be grouped with NH Krystal and the scam being executed by NH Krystal Cancun.

I would avoid doing business with Resort Solutions INC at all costs, they are profiting from the SCAM being conducted by Krystal. While Resort Solution INC did not promise any profits from renting the weeks, it should be noted that Brian "TJ" Jackson did take the time to build my confidence in advertising with Resort Solutions INC by indicating that the proximity of the Cancun Convention Center enables RSI to rent many of the weeks at Krystal International. After checking the website of Resort Solutions INC, one can easily see that there is an abundance of available weeks at Krystal International at discounted prices; this certainly does not support Brian "TJ" Jackson's impression that the weeks are in high demand. I have contacted Resort Solutions INC. requesting cancellation of our account and a full refund of the $595. Resort Solutions INC has removed our account but has not agreed to refund the $595. I don't suggest doing business with Resort Solutions INC. they have indicated no guilt concerning their profiting from this SCAM.

The response from Profeco is as follows: "Dear Sir/Madam, We inform you that we have analyzed your paperwork; however, since you did not cancel within five bussiness days after the purchase date, according to Art. 56 from the Consumer Protection Law, we can not ask for a full refund to the supplier. On the other hand you said that the company did not inform you about your cancellation right; but in the Clause seventeenth Advanced termination of your contract states how and when you are able to cancel. It is a consumer's duty to verify the contract's information provided by the supplier before sign any kind of paperwork. We inform you that the verbal promises made by the staff are not valid since we base our procedure in writing evidence. Therefore if you agree we might only be able to obtain the cancellation in the contract's terms and conditions or to honor the contract's clauses. Please advice whether you agree with the above information in order to start the procedure; otherwise you might be able to take your complaint before the Mexican Court." Sincerely, Paola Avila Department of Conciliation Services for Foreign Residents I'm confident that Bank of America's response will be the same. Thus, we have created a website that people should visit nhkrystalhotelandresort.com

I would like Resort Solutions INC. removed from the title of my report. They never promised any profit from the rental weeks.
