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.

Wow...you are really rude. There are SOME people who actually use this service and are happy with the service. Nancy, Janey, i agree with you completely. I myself went, received free accomodations in Orlando, which we are going to this fall. Just because some people feel it's a SCAM, which it is NOT, because EVERYONE KNOWS WHEN THEY GET THESE CALLS THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO SELL YOU SOMETHING. IF YOU DON"T WANT TO GO, SAY NO THANKS, AND FORGET ABOUT IT. There are hundreds of types of these companies, all trying to sell something, trying to make a living. When someone comes to your door trying to sell you LawnCare, and you don't want it, do you say NO THANKS? and that it's a SCAM???As for the prizes (trips anyway) you should NEVER assume it includes taxes and flight...prizes usually don't...you get an email STATING this when you agree to go.Why do you have to be so mean? So WHAT she spelled something wrong...i'm sure you have a few times in your life, vacationclub...don't you have better things to worry about then someone's spelling??????GET A LIFE.of course you are entitled to your opionion about suite life...SO IS EVERYONE ELSE.Enjoy your vacations, Janey and Nancy...i know i will!

I received a call today from this number.  "Peter calling from City Water".  That's what it sounded like.  I'm not going to return the call based on the previous comments.

Yes Cap a.k.a. Jeff Drutz, liar liar pants on fire. No such thing as 'Carriage Ridge resort'. It was just another joint that fired Drutz for scamming. Drutz also does Cranberry _Georgian Bay timeshare lies and Suite Life Scam a.k.a. vacation for cheap on our website but nothing that is deal is available.[***] scammers. they are all going to jail

They have anew name and number (647) 874-1544 and are now suitelife international.

Thank you, everyone, for the info.  I got a call tonight.  I never filled out any ballot.  Wasn't even here when "Roger" said the ballot was filled out.  We were about to attend the "orientation" tomorrow.  Will not be doing so, thanks to all the comments here.  I phoned to cancel.  Daniel (the manager,with whom I also spoke at length) was not happy and tried to convince me to attend.  I had to hang up on him.  What an enormous waste of time!  But better than the further waste of time had we attended tomorrow.  I now also recall that I got a call during the last couple of years from another "company" , probably the same one under a former name.  We did not accept their prize either.  It's unfortunate that they get our contact info somehow, but there is not an easy way to block them.

I got a call from suite life vacations today (mark) told me i filled out a ballot at a mall and he was pretty sure i was the correct winner of a prize. The prize being my choice of three vacations. One was vegas and one was niagara falls if i didnt want to leave canada and i cant remember the other one. Well first of all i did not fill out any ballot for a trip within the last year or even two years because theres no way i could anywhere with three small kids one of them being a newborn baby and why would i want to travel with a complicated pregnancy. So that was the first lie. I knew what this was immediately when they offered a free dinner if i came to pick up my voucher at their woodbridge office on Roundtree Dairy Rd. They called my husband and I about 6 years ago and attempted the same thing. They wanted to confirm our ages, that there were no health conditions and that our income was over $70,000. They said they were not going to sell us anything they just wanted our opinion on a presentation they were doing. I asked are you sure you are not going to sell us anything and they said no. We just had to watch a 90 minute presentation and we could claim our prize at the end. So we booked an apointment and went to the presentation. When we got there our free italian dinner we were promised was a less than adequate buffet of pasta with sauce and a salad with an extremely small portion in which we could not serve ourselves. We were told where to sit and CONVENIENTLY the two of us were told to sit at a table that had THREE chairs. The people that came alone were seated at tables with TWO chairs. After eating we watched a presentation on many different vacations and great it would be to go to these places etc. We were then led back to our tables and a salesperson sat with us at our table and immediately told us that whoever told us we would not be sold anything - LIED! They tried to sell us a membership somewhere around $15,000 for 30 years of discounted vacations. My husband and I who were only married for less than a year at the time said no way we couldnt afford it. So they immediately said they could give us a great deal on the membership and they got it down to $4000. They wouldnt stop talking so I ASKED FOR A DRINK OF WATER SO I WOULD HAVE A MINUTE ALONE WITH MY HUSBAND TO CONFIRM WITH HIM THAT HE ALSO SAW THIS AS A SCAM AND WHEN THE GUY STOOD UP FROM OUR TABLE HE CALLED ANOTHER PERSON OVER - not even a salesperson but a stand in person - TO SIT WITH US AT OUR TABLE while the first guy got me a drink so that we  COULD NOT TALK AMONGST OURSELVES!!!!!! We said no way we were not going to be buying a membership because how many vactions would we have to buy in order to make up the $4000 we would spend and then cover any yearly fee we would have to pay which was like $500 or something like that. As we left we got to draw our prize out of a bin which at the time was a flat screen tv or trip to niagara falls or trip outside canada. Guess what we got? The trip outside canada which we couldnt use anyway because airfare and food were not included and there was a whole bunch of other fineprint. So now they are calling us again probably because we just moved and have a new number so they dont have this number as one they have already called. It was a big disappointment and they always make it seem like the deal is too good to be true and when its too good to be true it probably is! So my advice to people who are gatting calls from suite life vacations is DONT GO TO THE PRESENTATION because afterwards the pressure they put on you to buy the membership is insane and they actually make you feel guilty for not buying it and pretty much say you are greedy for saying that the discounted proce at $4000 is still too expensive. Also as they are making their sales pitch - ******** BE VERY CAREFUL HERE they look like they are showing you the numbers and the terms of the membership but as they are doing this they are FILLING OUT A FORM - this form is your membership and when the sales pitch is over your membership form IS ALREADY FILLED OUT - and they pressure you to sign it. YOur signature is the only thing missing at this point. DONT SIGN ANYTHING! GET UP FROM THE TABLE AND INSIST THEY TEAR UP THAT PAPER AND LEAVE! DONT BOTHER ASKING FOR YOUR PRIZE because you wont be able to use it anyway. I hope i I at least can prevent one person from falling for this.
