While at the Excalibur in Las Vegas (August 29,2009), my boyfriend and I were approached by SURESH NARANG, telling us that they are doing a promotion at the hotel to get people to come back to Vegas since the economy is so bad. They were offering 3 FREE NIGHTS when you pay $100 up front. And that when we used it within a years time, we would either get the money back to spend on whatever we liked or towards a show or dinner at either the EXCALIBUR or LUXOR HOTELS.

This company tried to take one billion dollars from me by forcing me to wire them 1 billion dollars and they pursued my father with sexual advances.

Keep the paperwork

I did the same thing with the same company but the difference is I kept my paperwork. If you were paying attention they tell you to call them and NOT the hotel with a couple of different dates you might want to come back. I called the next year with dates and got the ones I really wanted. We were able to stay at the Palazzo and my aunt at the Venetian at the same time (we both did it seperate). Yes we got our money back and got 3 free nights.
All that I'm saying is next time if you pay money to somebody then you should keep the papers that you were given for a record.

Just do your due diligence

I bought a package from this company for only $99/person for a total of $227 for four people. It included a hotel stay in Orlando for 4 days/3 nights, 2 day passes to an amusement park of your choice and 3 bonus vacations. From the time I purchased the package in 2003 and booked the trip in 2004, there were no additional charges asked for. I did my due diligence after I received my package by reading carefully all the fine print, like the cancellation policy, which is a generous 30 days after purchase, the cost of the additional trips and what exactly was included. It said clearly on the back of the confirmation letter that there would be a timeshare presentation. In addition, I looked up the company on the internet to see make sure I had all their contact information and to see if they had any complaints from the Better Business Bureau.
When we arrived at the Welcome Center, we had no problem and we received all items, as agreed. The only additional fee we paid was the $24 hotel room tax for all four nights. The room was alright, certainly not hotel quality and about like a 3 star hotel, but the downstairs area was a showpiece. Indoor and outdoor pool, video arcade, karaoke bar, several restaurants where you could get free breakfast and dinner. Proximity to Orlando and the amusement parks (we were actually in Kissimee). The timeshare 4 bedroom suites made our hotel room look a little dinky. I could see how it'd be comfortable for a large group. The downer was that a 2 hour presentation ended up being almost all day when all was said and done. Luckily, my husband and I agreed that we would say no, no matter how much we were pressured. Unfortunately, some people weren't that strong. What I found telling is that our salesperson basically told us they offer these low cost vacations mainly to herd people in, and if they manage to sell a couple of timeshares, they've paid for the cost of the vacation packages. After we didn't budge, our salesperson, who brought us in a car, left us stranded at the sales center, but luckily a shuttle took us "losers" back to the hotel.
I can't speak for Take a Break Las Vegas, but I can't complain about our accommodations. In fact, that trip is one that my family all fondly remembers. Just do your due diligence. Because I had such a positive experience with that trip, I was lulled into agreeing to take a low cost cruise with another company. I have no idea what possessed me to do it. I really wish I had read about that other company before continuing to fork over money. Since that company has had a class action suit filed against it and several states have successfully won the right to participants getting a full or partial refund of payments, I'm going to try to see what I can do.
