TRAVELBRIDGE OF TEXAS - MINI travel VACATIONS, INC ripoff, MAIL FRAUD consumer rip-off fraud TAMPA Florida

Went to TRAVELBRIDGE OF TEXAS listen to their sales pitch about becoming a travel agent. They tried to sell us a associate travel agent with pressure starting at $5600. then drop to $4600 then to $3600.(did not bite). We received a free mini vacation form MVI Marketing which included free air and hotel room. We had to send a $100.00 deposit. We received paper word on how to get our vacation. We then requested our vacation. Which was return in a short time talling us that it was unavailable. On 4/8/02 we requested our refund of $100.00, as of 6/21/02 nothing NO check, NO letter, NO phone call. On 6/21/02 I call and listen to a recording and left a message with Brian Cummings to return my call. On Monday 24 Jun 02 I will report the following companies MVI Marketing, Mini Vacations INC and Travelbridge of Texas to the Military JAG office, San Antonio, TX Better Business Bureau and the Tampa, FL. Better Business Bureau to report these Companies. I am also going to check with th US Postal Office to see if this could be a case of mail fraud.

CLICK HERE to see how other consumers were victimized by the BBB's false or misleading information. Don't be fooled! It has been reported, when there are thousands of complaints and other investigations underway by authorities, the BBB has no choice but to finally give an UNsatisfactory rating to a BBB member business that is paying the BBB big membership fees every year. When a business is reported that is NOT a BBB member, BBB files WILL more likely show an UNsatisfactory rating, then reportedly shake down that company to become a member of the BBB. One positive thing about the BBB is, either way, if a business has an unsatisfactory rating with the BBB, you can be sure, the business is bad. But what about all those BBB member businesses that had complaints filed against them? Consumers never get to hear about them. What about the BBB advertising to the public? Is this a false and misleading perception they are giving about consumer confidence when dealing with a business?
