Dear Sir, We just viewed your experience here & the inconvenience is deeply regretted. Kindly mail the complete details of your membership & issues if any to response.[protected]@countryvacationsmail.com, so as to help you and understand the issue better.
Hi Sir,
This is to inform you about a biggest fraud/Scam run by Country Vacations/ Country Club.I become a member of country vacations on 10/02/15 in Hyderabad.
The total cost of membership is 85, 000 and On 10/02/15 I paid around 25000 to join the memebrship as I was running sort of money and I said I can pay the
remaining amount through credit card and they agree for the same. Later on 13/02/15 again I went to pay the fees this time they agree for 80, 000.So I paid the
the whole amount 80, 000 through ICICI credit card on 13/02/15. They refund only 20, 000 and promised me to gave coupon of 5000 which I can use malls and big bazzaar.
But till now I did get any coupon from them not even any membership card and now I'm realizing now what the sales people said that time was totally false.
Following commitments are made by sales team of Country vacations.
1. Five years holiday along with club event membership.
2. Total cost will be INR 85, 000/-.
3. There will be no AMC charges if you are not using any vacation for that year.
4. I can attend any club event from the next day after taking membership event list will be available on my account section.
5. I will receive membership card within 2 to 3 days.
6. All the details about my membership will be available under my account section of website.
7. You can sell your membership or vacation to other people any time if you not willing to use ann you no need to do anything for selling just you have to call us
willll sell your membership to other people and will take 2.5% of that amount as service charge.
8. If country club failed or not able to meet the commitment made by the sales team, I will be free to withdraw my membership anytime.
As offer made by them looks attractive to me, so I purchased it and paid INR 80, 000/.
9. They are saying they will conver that 80, 000 in to 24 month EMI with no interest Now I'm not sure For How many month EMI get converted
Even I checked with ICICI customer care peopl thay are saying still EMi conversion is in process.

Things lost.
I called them to sell my vacation for first year now they are saying its not our duty you have to sell personally.
Even I can see lot of mismatch in my online country vacation portal.
Customer care people are not even picking my call and saying you have to pay maintainance charge of 7500 every year wehther are you using or not.
I had never seen such a fraud in my life and I am one of the sufferer/Victim of these county club people and Now I have to Pay EMI for all those
services which I'm not using.
I have not used their any of the services till now and I'm not willing to continue their membership.

Please hlep me sir to get rid out of these pain.

Hi

I am another victim of CV similar to you. They donot stand by any of the words mentioned on that day.

They told I can rent out my vacation if I am not planning to use. But now if I ask the same they say that they are not responding for that.

They told I can cancel the vacation at any time and they will refund all the money. But now they say that it won't be refunded.

They did not mention about the annual maintenance at that time. But now I am getting calls that I have to pay AMC.

They mentioned that vacation can be carry forwarded to next year. But now they say my vacation is expired for the last year.

I took membership in last year. They said I need not pay interest to bank even if I choose EMI. But I have paid 8000rs EMI for the past one year.

I lost trust on CV completely and I want my money back please.

Thanks & Regards,
Yugandhar.
