THURSDAY NIGHT WORKING ON INTERNETMESSAGE APPEARS"WON A HOLIDAY TO SUMMERBAY RESORTS". WITHOUT HESITANCE I WENT AND PHONED THEM. IT TOOK ALL MY AIRTIME TO PHONE THEM. WHEN I TOLD THE "MANAGER" THAT I DID NOT HAVE A VISA CARD HE TOLD ME TO PHONE ON FRIDAY. I WENT OUT OF MY WAY TO GET ALL THE INFO THEY NEEDEDD. SO WHEN I PHONED BACK THEY KEPT PUTTING ME ON HOLD.SO I WENT ON TO THE WEB AND FOUND THAT I WAS NOT LOGGED IN AS A RESORT CUSTOMER. THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO PLAY PRANKS ON OTHERS SHOULD GROW UP AND TAKE LESSONS FROM PROFFESIONALS THAT DO POST REAL COMPETIONS. IF ANYONE CAN TAKE THSES SCAMMERS OF THE NET IT WOULD BE A BETTER INTERNET TO WORK ON . ANYONE WITH SAME COMPLAINTS SHOULD REALLY POST A COMPLAINT.

My wife and I received an invitation for a free week in Florida with SummerBay Resorts. We scheduled our trip in July of 2007 and purchased a vacation package for $2900. This package included 30, 000 RCI points, a cruise, and three stays at SummerBay Resorts.

The 30, 000 RCI points was promised to provide a dream vacation to remember. They said that most vacations could be booked within 45 days of our vacation for as little as 9, 000 points allowing us 2-3 great vacations. SummerBay promised to activate our points by July 1st, 2008 so that we could plan a 2008 summer vacation. They did not have our points activated until after August 1st, 2008...too late to book a vacation before the kids went back to school. Disappointed we scheduled (and paid for privately) another vacation to the Outer Banks of NC.

With our RCI points activated through SummerBay we called yesterday (01/13/09) to schedule our dream vacation for the summer of 2009. RCI told us that summer vacations usually book up a year in advance and that scheduling a vacation within 45 day of travel is highly unlikely unless they have a rare cancellation. Furthermore, most summer time vacations in the United States and abroad require significantly more than the 30, 000 points that RCI sold for our "dream" vacation. RCI was very helpful, to the extent that they could be, and apologetic for the inconvenience and misrepresentation of SummerBay Resorts.

All said and done, we were able to find and book one (1) resort that had availability for our family for under 30, 000 RCI points during the summer of 2009. For the $2900 we spent with SummerBay and an additional $139 booking fee with RCI we get to vacation in DeBois, Pennsylvania. We live in OHIO!

FLEE SummerBay like your hair is on fire. You WILL lose your money, you WILL be disappointed, your promised "dream" vacation WILL be a disaster!!! PLease share this story with everyone that you know to protect those that you care about.

Ive gotten several harrasement calls from you guys since I refuse to do business with.
These fuckwads hang up on me and now or say threatening messages.
You guys have been warn b/c now I caught you on tape.

I had a conversation with a gentleman last night offering me all sorts of holidays all over America for a great price. After some time we agreed on a price of £99.00. To my dismay i have gone onto the internet today to view my bookings and all of the web sites have disappeared and the phone numbers i was given no longer are working. I have informed my credit card company and they are telling me i have to wait until my statement is printed off. Summerbay also took more money than was agreed. I would be grateful if anyone could help as i am in the uk. I have emailed summer bay but am not holding much hope as i cant get hold of them any other way.

I would suggest that no one takes up there great offers!!!
