Not good | Bookvip review from Chicago, Illinois

Hello,

We appreciate the opportunity to address your comments.

It is unfortunate that you were not able to book your preferred travel dates for your family’s vacation.

However, the representative was correct when you were advised that the resort does not offer the promotion to single women during peak travel dates.

It is the participating resort provider who sets forth the eligibility requirements - not BookVIP.

BookVIP is a booking company and it is our job to ensure that guests are qualified for the limited number of promotional packages being offered by the resort providers.

Please call 888.845.0602 when you are ready to book your free vacation, and a customer service representative will be happy to discuss your options.

We saved hundreds of dollars | Bookvip review

Thanks to Bookvip.com we were able to get a great deal on an all inclusive resort for our sixth anniversary, which is something we usually can’t do. We saved probably over $1,000.00. We’re having a great anniversary vacation.

Horrible experience | Bookvip review

Hello Tia,

All of our special promotional packages are based on availability. The demand for your first resort choice was overwhelming and exceeded the allotment for the dates you selected.

We were notified of the allotment issue 2 days after your dates were sent to the resort and we immediately contacted you. Instead of moving forward with a full refund, you agreed to change your resort choice and your travel dates.

Although it is disappointing that your expectations were not met upon arrival at the resort, that issue should be directed towards the resort, not BookVIP. BookVIP is the booking company and was not made aware of any issues until we received your review.

  • False Misrepresentation Of Service

I had a horrible vacation. At the time of booking my vacation , i was reserved for a 4 star resort .

i got a email the second day that my dates werent no longer available. I reconfirmed dates and reservation for a hotel and the customer service representative never locked my dates in.

I Wtf lost those dates and was put in a 3 star trashy hotel for vacation. i am totally displeased with the service i received and will definitely not return or recommend book vip for vacation travel.

Never again , thieves !!!!!!! | Bookvip review

Dear Unica,

We are also disappointed that you were not able to take your children on vacation for your son’s birthday and have been unable to reach you to offer some possible options for your consideration.

However, your credit card was NEVER charged since your on-line reservation was not completed and processed when you spoke to the representative.

Although it is true that some of the resorts charge an extra surcharge on peak travel dates, not all of them do.

You can save up to 80% of the retail price because the resorts are subsidizing the cost of the vacation in exchange for meeting the eligibility requirements and attending a resort preview.

The resort sets forth the eligibility requirements – not BookVIP – and they are located at the bottom of each resort offering page on our website (Terms and Conditions).

If you would like to go ahead and plan that much-deserved vacation, please call the sales line at 888-849-8450 and a highly trained representative will be more than happy to assist you.

#1555818 Review #1555818 is a subjective opinion of poster.

I was really looking forward to a great getaway with my children seeing its going to be my sons birthday on June 16th. So I decided to book with bookvip online for a 4/2 At westgate resort which was priced at 199.00.

Once I pushed submit I was prompted to call customer service to confirm my dates (great right !.....no ) apparently their were surcharges that I did not calculate in my fiancé’s which I totally understand I personally just couldn’t afford it so I explained to the agent that I would like to cancel the whole thing cause at this time being a single mother of three it’s hard to just fork out 376.19. So the next morning I awake to these same people I clearly repeated on recording to cancel my reservations had taken my money. As I stated I’m a single mother who works 10 hour shift 5-6 days a week so my children can be happy n live.

I as their mother was looking forward to an enjoyable Weekend together seeing that I suffer from depression so it can be hard on us as a family To have that amount taken from u is a blow to my heart my sons birthday is now quickly approaching I now have nothing for his birthday . No i am not pleased with the service of this company it’s horrible how do U take what was clearly not authorized for u to take And leave us suffering.

Don't use BookVip

Dear Jill,

Thankfully, prior to receipt of your review, you had already been contacted by one of our managers who was able to confirm that the resort agreed to waive the penalty for the late cancellation and you have booked your new travel dates.

As an extra bonus, you have been provided with 3 FREE nights in Las Vegas or Orlando, which can be booked after your international trip.

Enjoy your vacation!

Waive their policy for excellent Customer Service

I accidentally left my passport at home which is a 2-day drive from Reno to Boise, ID. United couldn't let me fly without a passport.

They were so kind as to make an exception to their rules regarding penalties for the need to change our plans. American Airlines the same thing. Even the resort that we planned to stay in Cabo San Lucas, waived their penalties. But do you think BookVip would make an exception?

NO. They don't want to make any type of exception to any policies.

All I heard was the policy is to charge 2 days of the resort costs. Policy and policies.

Don't use BookVip unless you want to be quoted policies and horrible Customer Service.

HORRIBLE | Bookvip review

Dear Arnisha,

Thank you for the opportunity to respond to your concerns.

BookVIP offers unsurpassed vacation packages at amazingly affordable prices (up to 80% off the retail price) because the resorts are subsidizing the cost of the vacation in exchange for meeting the eligibility requirements and attending a resort preview.

The representative wanted to let you know about all of the perks associated with the vacation you were interested in, as well as the the special opportunity you had to receive a Summer Cruise bonus!

The resort’s eligibility requirements for each promotional package (including the requirement to attend a resort presentation) can be viewed on BookVIP’s website at the bottom of each resort offering page by clicking on the Terms and Conditions.

If you would like to go ahead and plan that much-deserved vacation, we would love to help.

Please call the sales line at 888-849-8450 and a highly trained representative will be happy to assist you with any further details for a specific resort and guide you through booking your next vacation with us.

This is a waste of time. They advertised a reasonable price online resort (Miami,FL).

I tryed to reserve the location/resort via online. I was given a confirmation # and to call a 1800 number. Upon calling the rep started quickly reading a script off a piece of paper. She went on and on about a cruise when I booked 4 a Miami, FL trip.

Then rambling I heard her say something about an 1.

30 manadtory presentation. The games people play, just say that up front ,.

Do you have to sit thru a promotion to buy into the resort? | Bookvip review

Hello,

Thank you for your question.

For most of the amazingly affordable packages offered on our website, you can save up to 80% of the retail rate on the promotional packages because the resorts are subsidizing the cost of the vacation in exchange for meeting the eligibility requirements and attending the resort preview. BookVIP has some specials which do not require a resort preview as well.

The VIP property tour is designed to be fun and informative, so that the customer will know where everything is and get the most out of their stay.

Please call the sales line at 888-849-8450 and a highly trained representative will be happy to assist you with any further details for a specific resort and guide you through booking your next vacation with us.

We look forward to hearing from you!

During your vacation is it required that you take time out to listen to a sales pitch? Is there a sales pitch to try and get you to buy into the resort?
