This is a letter I sent to my bank and the company and American Vacation never responded. To American Vactions I booked a vacation with your company based on a flyer sent to my job for a 5 day & 4 night all included package for $149/person plus 60% off airfare. I called a spoke to Mr. Kelly who explained there is a better deal with flight included for only $1098 and would have to pay no more than $99 for tips. He said I have 18 months to use it and I have to chose my dates 45-30 days before the date of my chosen and my flight. I said sounds good and booked it. His ext is 1034. So I called back using that ext and it said number not valid. So I called the main # and waited for the operator who said Mr Kelly was at lunch and to leave a message so he could call me back. I never received a call back for him.

The next day I just called to speak to whoever was available. I gave them the dates I wanted to travel July 12, 2016-July 16th, 2016 and I picked to go to Hawaii. She explained because it is a domestic location it was not all inclusive and I just have to use the links to get my hotel and flights. I clicked on the flight links and it bought me to the regular sites as if I was booking it on my own. A day or so later I decided to change my destination to Cancun after looking through the list of resort choices given. I called again and spoke to the agent at ext 1008. I wanted one of three hotels; Dreams, Secrets or Villa de Palmer. She said there was an upgrade fee of $399/person and $448 for the all inclusive package plus tax. Occording to the flyer I shouldn't have to pay anything else. She gave me another hotel not listed that was available; the Imperial. I said I want to take a look at it first before paying anything else. I asked about the flight issues and she said the package doesn't include flight it just gives you a discountil of 60% off. I said Mr Kelly told me it was included with the flight. she said Im sorry but its just a discount aand try the link again. I was not happy at all I was getting ask for more money. What happened to the $149/ person? I told her I would look into this hotel and call her back.

So I looked at the hotels she gave me. This little hotel was not a resort, had one restaurant and looked like the Jersey shore. I was so upset its a 3 star hotel not a 4 or 5 star as it said on the flyer. I called her ext back went straight to voicemail and said mailbox is full. Really? I called again for the last time and was on hold for 20 then it disconnected me and I called back and was on hold again so I just hung up out of frustration. And no one has tried to even contact me about the trip next month. I would like a full refund because this whole thing was misleading and false advertisment. Concerned consumer, Lateesha Barnes My bank said because the contract did not say clearly that airline was included they have to close the claim.
