Hey guys. I have been a member of QVC for years and could never get a booking. Now I want out but they refuse to answer my requests. How do I get out of it?

Hi we bought timeshare (points system) a couple of years ago and experienced problems when it came to paying surcharges everytime we booked which was very high, considering the fact that we also had to pay annual levies. When buying the timeshare we were also promised that should we wish to sell they would buy it back. Not true. I would like to know if anyone has also experienced a similar problem and have any advice? Lyne

I have been wanting to warn job seekers about Findata Financial Services, also known as Finsolnet. Findata makes allot of promises, and never ever delivers. They try to keep you in the company by promising more responsibility, higher pay, funny and pyramid type commission structures (you pull on the short end) and client service means nothing for them, taking client money without providing service they do that gladly. Please job seekers, stay away from Findata financial services.

Pls send them this post – I think they need to read what people think about them (including the links). Maybe they’ll change their advertising strategy and save a lot of people the pain of going through the ordeal of expecting a wonderful prize and leaving with a contract for holidays in hand (especially the retired couples I saw when I went to one).

l live in the UK, we had these guys here too, l was called and told that l had “won” a holiday fortunately all my calls are recorded(work related) l asked the caller repeatedly if he was time share which he denied. At the presentation, this was denied again in answer to a question by someone else in the room, well to cut a short story long, the ending was predictable with no holiday won and a dozen or so very unhappy people who had wasted an evening listning to a sales pitch.
l contacted our trading standards authority who investigated this company and l was informed that they were going to prosecute them,—-but they fled the country before that happened. l wouldnt be surprised that some of them arrived in SA where the pickings look easy, l would advise Don to try and find out if any of them are wanted in this country for trading standards offences. lf its the same crowd then they would have arrived in SA about twelve years ago, and from what l can remember some of the individuals are from America, Carribean countries and Israel.
