I am a member of the United Vacation Network and I have actually booked trips through this company. It seems like people in this world always have to have a opinion about something before they have even used it. People are already saying bad things about ethanol fuel when they haven't even tried it yet. The truth about this vacation program is simple, it's an easier way to travel and save money.

I surf as much as I can but the only problem is I live in Jacksonville Florida, this means I often have to travel to different places to surf better waves. This program has made it easy on me. All I have to say is, "I need a place on this beach for this amount of time". The United Vacation Network puts me where I want to be instead of a random place that I found on the internet which had a great price but had its pictures made in 1993, and is now in the middle of a gang neighborhood.

The program did cost me a good bit of money but I budgeted myself for the time that I was making my payment and now my program is paid off. I use this program and recently took a Royal Caribbean cruise to Nassau and Coco Cay and had the time of my life drinking Coco-Locos.

The only reason I could ever see anyone complain about this program is if you got into payments that you couldn't afford, then freaked out and needed to point a finger at someone to blame. These same people can take that finger and point it right back at themselves. Before anyone says anything about this program they should at least vacation with it first then post something on this site.

Bogus Compliments

AUTHOR: Public Citizen - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, August 10, 2007

As we have seen on other websites, now we have Christy, Michelle, Randy & Steve saying they are UVN members and praising them. The truth is that UVN has 2 people who work for them that do nothing but get on websites and praise the company under the guise of being members. No one is fooled by this. And all of this will come out in a courtroom when IP addresses and computers are forensically examined.

Keep up the fraud UVN; but the day is soon coming when all will be exposed. Just like your neighbor, Suntasia, you are being investigated and watched very closely, and the evidence is mounting.

Glad to hear

Randy I am glad to hear you had a great time on your crusie, I too have been happy with my membership. Yes it did cost me quite a bit of money but thus far it has been worth it. I suggest if you do not want the membership then don't buy it.. simple as that. Maybe I will see you on the next cruise!!

Member Services

AUTHOR: Christy - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, August 09, 2007

We have thousands of satisified members that we service on a daily basis. Our memberships are designed to save time and money when planning vacations. All of our members are provided with their membership material at the time of purchase with guidelines for each memebership. The comment above states that ripoff is a site for those to list complaints; well I like to know how does a consumer verify if the complaint is logic and not fabricated.

How do consumers know that the comments posted are true events, not just one individual possing as different consumers posting the same complaint over and over. Finding any information about our company should have consumers at a relief that they are dealing with a company large enough to be found on the web.

I can look up any company on this site and find complaints posted against them; that doesn't mean they are not a reputable company it just means that someone purchased red and then decided they wanted green.

We want all of our members to remain satisfied and we go over and beyond expectations to make sure that happens. United Vacation Network has continually built its reputation as a leader within the travel industry and we continually strive to remain at the top.

Why would a satisfied customer author a Ripoff Report

AUTHOR: Ronald - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, June 06, 2007

Randy is a satisfied customer of UVN? The persons who report on UVN here at Ripoff Report.com do so because they were lied to by UVN. In our case We wanted a vacation membership just like the one that was presented to us by UVN. We would gladly pay the full amount to UVN to get what they offered in the seminar, but will fight any company who lies to get our money!

It sounds like Randy could have saved those several thousand dollars and just found a good travel agent and forget how much a trip would cost. He did not mention anything about comparing vacation costs, or not being able to use Uvn's website to book a vacation - like UVN represented in the seminar. How about the "Special Request Form" that we didn't find out about until we tried to book a vacation.

The request forms were definately not in our booklet as Christy insisted. When we finally received the forms 5 days later in the mail, we noticed that You had to request 3 separate travel destinations at least a week apart. We would have never signed their contract knowing that.!

I could go on and on about UVN's false promises, but simply put - a contract based on lies should be void. I just wish I was as happy to have a UNV / Suncoast Travel Membership as Randy is?
