We talked to a lawyer today. His advise is to file a complain with the state of Florida, attorany gereral. A class action suit would not benefit us because they will just file bankrupcy and we would get nothing back. The state can seize their property and sell it to pay all who have filed back. When you file a complain with you should also ask if you can stop your payment....since Florida is investigating them they most likely will say to quit paying them. You need to file a complain to be listed if you want any money back. 1-800-435-7352 or 1-850-488-2221

Her is how I did it. File a small claims suit against UVN at the Pinellas County, Fl. Circuit Court. Will cost $300 or so to file to recover $5000 max plus interest plus $300 fee. You will take two trips to Fla to resolve this. One trip a hearing to try to settle out of court and maybe a second for the trial. UVN will refund just before the trial. There is a networking group working on this find names via Circuit Court and phone the plaintiffs on record.

Everthing you stated is correct. I just learned the owner of United Vacation Travel, Donna Loher, was murdered, 11/7/07, in San Antonio, TX and her ex-boyfriend has been arrested and charged with her murder. In a travel company obituary I found out she has 3 sons. Brandon Congleton (24), Nicholas Congleton (25), and Dyland Loher (15). Nicholas Congleton was in a partnership with his mother, Donna Loher, in a travel consulting business called DBN Consulting. I live in Florida and used to have my own business in Largo, Florida where they originally ran United Vacation network. They have since dropped that name and moved to a neighboring city - Clearwater, Florida. They use many alisases to get people to attend the "seminars" then it all falls back to one website....United Vacation Network which is no longer in business. I can't find any legal registry, documentation, or websites for their other companies, nor can I find anything for DBN Consulting. We're supposed to have mini-vacations and an extra condo week too which we never got because they couldn't find the locations we wanted. Try complaining to your State Attorney. In Florida we have the Florida Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services. They are now invoicing us under Capital Financial which they own as well. Travel Services and Travel Services USA seem to be new one too. I guess they post a big bond since they handle other people's money but after a year they can request to get their bond back. I'm not sure how that works. Still doing research.
