I have been a member for a couple of years, and although I have had no problems dealing with them in the past, the time has arrived. If you are a member, you received an email the other day regarding "special assessment fees". Well, this money hungry company makes bad business decisions and expects us to pay for it?? A supplier that they dealt with, Dream Travels, has gone bankrupt and because of this, Suitelife is asking all its members to pay $399USD by March 30. Supposedly to help with recuperating costs they had to dish out to help out those who booked accommodations with this supplier. I have been sending demanding emails why they expect us to pay this in less then 30 days, when its their fault they don't carry insurance. "Too costly" was the answer on that question. They REFUSE to show their books to their members as to HOW they came up with this amount. I have been fighting with them for the last couple of days, and they refuse. I'd like to get members together and fight this, and after giving them a couple more days, I will be filing a complaint with the BBB (even tho they are not accredited). I will also be going to the media if they don't show the books. We have a right to know where this $399 amount came from. Oh and get this, if you are travelling BEFORE March 30, you have to pay the amount BEFORE you travel....why???
Something is fishy here, and i even accused them of being involved with the bankruptcy of Tonya (Dream Travels). I will see if something evolves with that. Does anyone know of any shows like "Silverman Helps"? Too bad he is gone! But they will be sorry when this goes public.

Got the call saying that I had one a trip to any destination in NA for four adults, or a 5d, 4n trip to Niagara Falls, ON for two adults and two kids.  I'm pretty skeptical when anyone tells me something is "free" because nothing in life is.  I told him nothing is "Free" so what do they want from me.  I was told that they wanted us to come and sit through a 90 minute presentation (give or take 5-10 minutes) that there would be a light lunch and refreshments.  I asked how the trip was "Free".  The caller told me that instead of having commercials in magazines, newspapers, and TV, they have these presentations and their marketing department pays for the "free" trips less air fair and taxes.  We went, we heard, we were definitely intrigued.  Yes, there was a sales pitch, but it IS a business and they want clients.  There wasn't really any pressure though, and regardless of whether or not we decided to become members, we were guaranteed the "free" trip.  Anyone who can't see the value in paying $6000 over five years (if you finance it) to receive enormously discounted travel fares for 25 years ($18,000 for lifetime membership which can be willed to your children/partner/best friend) isn't paying attention or doesn't value taking a vacation.  And we are talking $300USD/wk for resort accommodations that would cost you upwards of $2000USD/wk.  Yes, you are paying a fee to them to use their contacts to get the best rates (and better) possible, but if you like to travel, and plan to travel for your whole life, you can easily do the math.  I don't work for them.  I'm just a curious person who got the call and was willing to (possibly) "waste" 90 minutes of my life to get a "free" week at a 5-star hotel in Niagara Falls, ON.  I find it interesting that those above who are calling this a "scam" haven't been willing to risk the 90 minutes to find out if it is in fact a scam.  The only "catch" was that (being married) my husband and I had to go to the presentation together.  Everyone was professional, polite, friendly, and non-pressure.  If you get a call from SuiteLife Vacations and can spare 90 minutes to go hear the information, do it.  What do you have to lose other than 90 minutes?  I know I've spent more time watching a BAD movie and paid out the nose to see it in theaters.  If  you really don't want to sign up for anything, then don't, just take what was promised to you (light lunch and the "free" trip) and be on your merry way.

My wife and I just came back from a presentation at Suitelife Vacation in Woodbridge ON.  Some guy with a heavy accent called me and said I had won a free prize and that I should come to their office in Woodbridge to collect the prize, but that we would have to listen to a 90 minute presentation.  He said that I had filled out some ballot at a Mall over a year ago, although I didn't remember any.  The phone connection was very poor and it was hard to hear.  The prize was a trip to Las Vegas or any one of the 50 US states including Hawaii, or Niagara Falls. He asked whether I was married or common-law, whether we made over $70K, and whether we were between the ages of 26-68.  He sent an email which was then followed up by an email from the "manager" confirming that we would be there, and that if we did not attend by exactly 6:15 pm then the presentation would start without us and that we would be locked out.  We ended up going to the presentation.  It was located in some run down office, on the second floor, staffed by very unprofessional looking people, no "business card" was presented when asked. People showed up after 6:15 pm and they weren't "locked out". After dinner, which we actually liked, they made a presentation to sell vacation weeks, for a membership fee of $15,000 for 99 years and user fees of between $200 to $800 per week.  After we declined they offered 40, 30 year packages and finally 5 years for $5000.  The Saleslady was Indian and seemed hugely disappointed when we didn't buy in.  We left with our promised voucher.  When we attempted to go to www.allsuitegetaways.com/certificate.htm, to redeem, there was no such existent website.  I have left a message with the manager tonight but do not expect to receive any callback.  This is a complete scam.  I will start with a complaint to the better business bureau and then escalate further.  That is guaranteed.  This is straightforward fraud and will be dealt with by the appropriate authorities.  Unfortuneately Canada does not have any teeth when it comes to white collar crime.  If this was the US, they would be in jail.  Do not go if you are called.

Got the same exact call about 1 hr ago... The blasted scam took up my entire lunch break, saying that i signed up some time ago and that I've won the choice of 2 trips... His heavy accent made it hard for me to understood what i had won.. His manager called me 5 mins later regarding the details...We (My husband and I) were to schedule a time frame (today) to head to 690 Rowntree Dairy Road, units 201-202 for dinner.. We were to leave our wallets at home because they don't need our monies... LOL!!!  After that i just gave him a fake name because i was reading all the reviews on line while he was speaking to me.. Oh and his manager will call to book us for dinner tonight... Oh, i won't be answering that call... This Kevin Dale, sounds so much like Surrindar Singh... LOL!!!  Definately a scam!!! Don't waste your time!!!

I am so sorry for you, Jeff durtz, who now works for Carriage hills and georgian manor resort to have to come here and lie your head off,I think you might be going to jail again very soon for so many reasons, this is just one of them...

Got a call this am from someone in New york...told me about my winning ballot. Said his rep from woodbridge would be calling me with the details. Same speil, same routine...although I had considered going to the presentation this weekend...even if it meant to get free vouchers for a vacation destination for a  few days..but hearing that some peoples codes/numbers on the vouchers couldn't be redeemed. I do not intend to waste 90 mins for a crappy meal. Thanks everyone for the heads up.

When I was engaged (18 years ago) my fiance and I went to a presentation by GEO Holidays. Same concept. And we intended to travel a lot and did over the course of our marriage. They are still in business. Called the ex just now and he still uses it ( he pays the concierge fees and booking fees). We were always pleased with GEO. And they came through for us in an emergency medical situation while vacationing in Aruba which necessitated us buying an additional week in Aruba. It cost us $250 US for a 2 bedroom deluxe condo on the ocean. We skied numerous times in Colorado and Utah and traveled to Disneyland, Mexico, California, France, Austria, Las Vegas and always arranged accommodation through them. I don't know why they present it the way they do in Canada. It does have "SCAM" written all over it and btw we never did take that stupid free holiday. But we did buy the membership. We had the money and inclination to travel multiple times over the course of each year. If you want to travel more than once a year and you think you'll get your moneys worth check out GEO Holidays on the internet. They have a legit product. No, I do not work for them. No, I do not have an Indian accent. No, I would not sign up at this point in my life because I don't have the money to travel. Yes, if you want to contact me to verify my statements, state it in your addition to this blog.   Yes, I have a local number.
