Club Mahindra Holidays Complaints & Reviews

I took the membership at club mahindra, the executive told me that the emi of rs. 3022 includes the annual maintainance charges and every other charges, i will not be required to pay any thing apart from this. Also, from last two years nobody intimated anything when i was constantly asking about this. After paying rs. 109309, they are asking for the extra amount. Why they did not said all this before 60% payment. It is clear case of fraud and cheating. Now when the customer has paid almost 75% amount, when he cannot move back they are asking to make extra payment???

Also, i've not taken any holiday from you till date, everytime they said that there is no vacancy. I feel all my money was waste, they were not in intentions to give holiday, you were only extracting money from my pocket and it was just a trick to do so.

Never go for club mahindra. They are cheaters

Hi,

I recieved a call form Club Mahindra couple of days back and they told me i have won a free gift voucher for free stay at any of the club mahindra resorts for 2 days and 3 nigths. all i have to do is attend a seminar for 45 mins along with my wife and take away the voucher.

I sat with my wife for like 2 hours for the pathetic seminar where they were trying to sell me the membership.
i was sure i dont want to buy.

its been like 5 days i have still not got the voucher.
Club mahindra islying and inviting people to attend the seminar and if some falls in their scheme great else send them home without any voucher.

i had travelled all the spending 200 rs to attend the seminar at INOX Mall at Nariman Point.
the person who called me was some IMRAN and he only gave the presentation for 2 hours.
please let me know whom to contact in club mahindra to complaint about this fraud marketing policy.

Club Mahindra is a very saturated club i.e.so many members and very few clubs. No new memberships they shall take unless they are able to make provision for existing members.Marketing team fools peoples to go for membership but once they are booked no proper response for booking.Many of destination they are not owning clubs but hires other resorts and changes contract.There own resorts also do not have enough rooms.Any customer wishes to book in desired period;they will suggest you very odd period.They have categories for memberships like Premium one is RED and lowest is blue.but one will find always booked for desired destination.Peoples shall choose membership after verification of lakhs of members and hudreds of room all over country.
Not a choice at all to go for such membership.I am one of the unfortunate member.

Sir,
This is to inform you that my family and I were invited by the employees of the City Centre, Salt lake branch of Club Mahindra Holidays to attend a presentation on 8th June,’09.We were attended by Mrs. Manashi. Finding the package beneficial, I booked a trip to Goa and paid Rs. 4,500 at hand. Soon I received my Member ID i.e. 1494039 and I also paid another 20,926/- within 15th June, ’09. But the written package details that were posted to my residence afterwards were completely different from that of Mrs. Manashi’s elaborations of June 8,’09. At the time of booking, it was 5 nights and 6 days which turned into 3 nights. Initially, it was said that the sight seeing will be free of cost which changed into payable. They promised that they would take us from Kolkata to Goa by air. But later on, they committed a breach by confirming that they would only take us to Mumbai by air and after that, it was our responsibility to reach Goa.

Hence, we decided to cancel the said trip and gave an application personally to City Centre, Salt lake branch on 19th July,’09. Though Mrs. Manashi signed on our application and they accepted it, but I got no response until today. After that, I tried to contact them a number of times, but they never bothered to answer to my queries, they never gave me a justified explanation. So, I posted a letter to their ‘Shrachi Tower’ branch as it was supposedly the main branch in Kolkata according to Mrs. Manashi. But they did not even accept it. Having no other option, I moved to an advocate and he sent a few letters to all their respective branches. But it was the same again, they refused to accept those.

At the end, I thought of bringing this incident into the notice of Consumer Forum to seek justice. I would expect you to look into the matter personally and kindly arrange the return of the entire paid amount of Rs.25, 426 as early as possible. I would also like to claim compensation as they harassed me a lot. I had to travel to their different branches many a times. I had to call them several times and it even required me to consult an advocate. I had to gone through severe mental pressure & agony.You can understand that managing all these additional expenses is not easy for a middle-class family. I hope to get money back along with compensation as earliest.

Payment details:
08.06.’09 – Rs. 4,500 cash
12.06.’09 – Rs. 10,000 by Cheque no. 528023
15.06.’09 – Rs. 10,926 by Cheque no. 528024
Total paid amount – Rs. 25,426

Thanking you,
Yours truly,
Ashim Kumar Dey

I received a call in early November-2009 stating I have won a club mahindra lucky draw entitling me to an abolutely free 2 night 3 day stay at any of their resorts plus 2 movie tickets of Inox Multiplex, Nariman Point, Mumbai absolutely free. The only pre-condition was that we have to attend a no-obligation presentation of 45 mins, both husband and wife, after which we shall be given the free voucher irrespective of whether we enroll as members or not.

Hereafter we got repeated calls from their call centre asking us when we are collecting our free stay vouchers and tickets. Eventually we agreed to a convenient time and accordingy reached the Club Mahindra Office at CR2 Mall in Nariman Point, Mumbai.

It is only now that we realise that this entire process of attracting gullible innocents by various means is a very well planned out sleazy modus operandi of the company. When we reached there we were made to fill out a declaration form which said that we understand this would be a presentation of 45 mins and also that there is no obligation to purchase the membership. They also request to fill out information such the type of car we own, how often we go on holiday etc.

The presentation is handled in a very `planned' fashion by an executive and a manager (viz. Mr. Farshogar Madon and Mr. Lalit Gehani, in our case), The executive portrays as if we are indeed lucky to have been selected for the offer and that we are there on a day that happens to be a Special Offer Day which is supposed to be too good to let go. All the time, the executives portray strongly about the brand and family name of the Mahindras and their class properties around the country pretending to be very honest about everything. They only indulge in explaining the various resorts and facilities that we can avail of and how easy it would be to avail a 1 week five star holiday every year at a marginal price without disclosing for a long time the actual cost of the membership. All the while that the executive makes this ground building presentation he does not disclose the cost of the membership. Then he asks his manager to come and tell us about the costs. Stealthily they lead the prospective member into believing that they would be missing out on a very lucrative offer of the day. Throughout the joint presentation they move in on the `kill' explaining the features and facilities in handwritten fashion on plain paper. Very cleverly they dodge all questions when you ask for reading the terms and conditions in writing, stating that this is exactly as explained during the presentation and that it can be given to us only if we become members and that it would form part of the Welcome Kit that we receive from the company. On insisting that we cannot take any decision without understanding everything in black & white, they again convince you to have faith in the name of the Mahindras and that there are so many members enjoying the benefits of the membership every year. They show pictures of happy families and offer to have us speak to some of their members if we feel the need to. They initially purposely try to sell you a lower category membership to make you feel as if they feel you may not be able to enroll for the highest membership i.e. Red season membership. They made it sound so easy as if there are a large number of options that a person desiring to be member can choose from with varied EMI plans as well as interest free EMI plans. They slyly put you off-guard by stating that they will hold on to our application for 10 days as part of their built-in process and then process it only thereafter during which time we are free to cancel our application for a full refund. They claim that they have to swipe our credit card for the down payment so that we can avail of the special offer that is valid only if we pay the down payment on the spot. We reallised only later that this is a trick played on most prospective customers only to make it sound easy - it is only later that we have come across so many cases on the internet wherein even if the prospetive member has decided within 10 days not to proceed with the membership they have been unsuccessfully running from pillar to post to even get their down payment back.

We were offered as part of the `special deal'
* a complimentary 2 years membership of RCI
* a discounted standard exchange fee for availing an international holiday
* a bonus exchange week in addition to our entitlement
* a Sony Bravia LCD TV 26"
* a 14 nights holiday in any Club Mahindra Resort valid upto[protected]
* Food vouchers worth Rs.4000 redeemable at Club Mahindra owned resorts only valid for one year
* Three Bonus weeks with RCI which can be availed anytime during the validity of our RCI membership
* 2 nos. of 2 night / 3 Day free stay vouchers

We intially made a down payment for a white season membership of a studio appartment, which we upgraded to a red season membership by paying the difference amount, thinking that we would be able to utilise them with more season options and that we would have better chances and more priority during reservation requests. This was the highest available membership that was offered by the Club Mahindra people in a symbolic gesture to portray that they have purposely closed the Purple membership as all their inventory for that season had been sold out.

All these lucrative offers and camouflaged `genuinity' did make us feel as if we were in a for some very good holidays within the next 2 years itself (and for the next 25 years) and we had already started eagerly planning on when to take leave from work. We began planning our wonderful trips to various destinations chalking out the possible dates when we could take off from work and avail of the privileged holidays.

Both o[censored]s made many tentative plans and decided to first use up our free vouchers and entitlements right away as we did not want to waste any of the offers

It was only when we first tried to utilise our free vouchers, that we realised that all those promises of easy reservation system, excellent service, extended help-desk, a travel desk to help us with great offers and deals on airline tickets and hotel discounts at any time were mere sales gimmics. A member cannot attempt to book any holiday before 6 months and even when he attempts to book within the 6 month period he is usually faced with a `No Availability' situation. Mr. Farshogar and Mr. Lalit had very categorically told us earlier while selling us the membership that if we every had any problem trying to get a reservation, it would be better to do all reservations through them and that we were welcome there anytime. However when we tried to take their assistance in getting a reservation they kept on committing that they would revert to us with the availability, but in effect they wouldnt call us back unless we again went to their office or called them.

It was first in the midst of Dec-2009 that my wife gave them certain dates for a holiday for which Lalit was to revert within 24 to 48 hours. However no one reverted despite reminders and then Lalit suddenly disappeared apparently for a surgery.

When we personally visited their office to express our regress Farshogar and others in your office took the excuse of Lalit's surgery and blamed it on Lalit that he had not communicated anything to the office before proceeding on leave and hence the problem.

Thereafter we took cognigance of Farshogar's assurance and waited for him to respond. He too failed to revert to us as assured.

When we again visited their office personally again in the 3rd week of January-2010, quite disgusted with their service and care-less attitude towards the customers, we were told by Lalit that it was Farshogar's to be blamed for showing insensitivity towards the customers that has caused this and that he would now personally see to it that we got the bookings. It was our marriage anniversary on 26th Jan and we had been hopefully planning to have a nice trip during the long anniversary weekend - all our hopes and dreams were shattered due to Club Mahindra and we were eventually unable to make any anniversary holiday plans, thanks to the sleazy attitude and postponing tactics of Club Mahindra and its officers.

Finally, after having missed on planning out a holiday and wasted our holidays, in frustration I finally wrote a complaint to them on [protected]@clubmahindra.com. Even in all that time that went by after the false assurances, still Lalit had not yet gotten back to us. This is despite giving him the dates in writing and handing over BOTH our vouchers to him for doing the needful.

We were by then completely convinced that all the assurances of servicing and 5 star holidays are nothing but ways to dupe people into taking a membership. There is no customer service driven approach in the company and it is completely a person dependant process leaving the customers to the mercy of any personnel who can choose to keep taking the customer for a ride without any accountability.

We did not apply for a CM membership in order to be taken for granted and harrassed (and mentally tortured) merely for encashing even our vouchers / bonus weeks - even when we had not yet even begun using our membership benefits. It completely appears to be a highly misrepresented scheme by a well trained marketing team for luring gullible members with false committments and promises.

We have not yet availed of even a single membership benefit till date and wish to terminate the membership with retrospective effect. You are requested to assist us please in getting a complete refund of all our upfront membership fees paid plus the amounts thereafter charged to our credit card till date alongwith suitable compensation for all the mental agony, torture and waste of time that the company and its officers have been putting us through. It is our very hard earned money and we were hoping to make the best use of it by having some vacations together. Club Mahindra has fleeced us of our hard earned money through false promises and caused us a lot of mental torture, waste of time and energy and missed special occassions because of their one-sided, monopolistic and restrictive practices.

Club Mahindra inndulges in luring prospects with lucrative offers, which in effect can actually never be utilised or can in some lucky occassions be only partially utilised. In exchange for this, they fleece the prospective member off handsome moneys from their hard toiled earnings and bind them to the torturous end of a 25 year committment wherein it is only the members loss always if he does not cough out money at beck and call of Club Mahindra but has no recourse to demand his rights or services as promised.

1. brand name ‘ mahindra’ was the single most important factor when we decided to take club mahindra holidays membership on 31 dec 2009. my association with company in the farm sector for 35 years was the best guarantee. we trusted every written or spoken word of your executives.

2. on receipt of membership documents/card etc, we discovered certain discrepancies in the promised and written facts.

(a) we were promised additional gift vouchers of shoppers stop of rs 3000/-. the sales executive mr. aquib at ansal plaza, andrews gunj, new delhi informed us that it was a special offer if we took the membership on 31 dec. and, since, he had run out of the stock, the gift vouchers would come by post along with other membership documents. he also offered to drop these vouchers at my residence in dwarka. we had no reason to suspect the offer or the executive. however, we have not received these vouchers so far.

(b) a 60 months payment plan was recommended, which we accepted. after the govt discount and other incentives, an amount of rs 216121/- was worked out towards 25 years membership, against which we paid rs 25126/-. also, emi rs 4739/- was fixed. however, at no stage did mr aquib or his senior (mr sajid - i guess), mention charging of interest on emi. the interest is levied on equated monthly installments (emi) for the period of default or delay only.
(c) asf of rs 8043 /- was explained. but it was never made explicit that it was to be charged ‘irrespective o[censored]sage’. we carried the impression that it was to be paid only in the year o[censored]sage. well, this could be our poor understanding but such vital aspects ought to be made clear to ‘not so knowledgeable customers who are venturing into such contracts for the first time and do not understand nuances. voluminous and legally fortified terms & conditions are always not possible to be read and understood then and there. besides, sales wizards apply every trick in the book, some times at the cost of ethic and name of the company.

3. all this was taken up with mr aquib by my wife. for about a week, mr aquib kept assuring her of action. but nothing happened and there after, he stopped taking her calls. on my asking him the progress, he advised me to get in touch with his superiors as it was not his job to settle such issues. when i confronted him as to why he made the promise of free gift vouchers, he asked me in a very rude and insulting manner to produce the documentary evidence of his promise. similarly, when asked as to why the issue of charging interest on emi or payment of asf irrespective o[censored]sage was not explained properly, his reply was most derogatory. he said ‘boss, you didn’t ask me, so i did’nt tell you’. he had no answer to my argument that how shoppers stop came to my mind and if the interest on emi was explained properly, we might have taken an interest free option avoiding excess payment of rs 90, 000/appx towards membership.


4. i sought mr sajid’s help. he heard me out and promised me to visit my place with mr aquib. unfortunately, even after reminders and repeated shifting of date & time for meeting, he did not turn up. another senior person (mr. sanjai-i guess), told me that the gift vouchers had been received by mr sajid who was in chennai for official work. mr sanjai also offered to come to my residence on a particular date & time, but he also kept on shifting the meeting on the pretext that he would only come along with gift vouchers after mr sajid returns from chennai. sadly, we did not hear any thing for them thereafter.

5. frustrated, we decided to visit mahindra towers at bhikaji kama place on 05 feb10 (friday) and wanted to meet mr. midha. we were told at the reception that mr midha was not in the office and they did not have his mobile number. (fair enough, i do not know whether it was company policy or my case did not merit his attention). ms shikha attended to us. i also spoke to mr sanjiv kr. (i guess i/c delhi region), who asked me to meet him on 06 feb 10 (saturday). however, later i was told that mr sanjiv was committed elsewhere and would see me only on 09 feb10 (tuesday). as i was going out of station, i requested ms shikha to re-chech if mr sanjiv could accommodate me on 06 feb10 any time. ms shikha did call back saying that mr sanjiv has now agreed to meet me on 06 feb and would give 1/1-1/2 hr notice so that i could reach the appointed place of meeting on time.

6. on 06 feb, when i did not hear either from ms shikha or mr. sanjiv till 2 pm, i called mahindra towers. the phone was answered by security who informed me that saturday being half day, every one had packed up. i called mr sanjiv on his mobile a number of times, but my calls were not answered. finally, i sent him two messages, where in he graciously conceded to my request and wrote that he would call me at around — (no time given). i waited through whole of saturday waiting to hear either from ms shikha or mr sanjiv. appalled, i am wondering as to where the buck would stop.

7. we feel very humiliated by the conduct of various functionaries at every level. unparalleled apathy, providing information selectively and gross neglect of ethical practices by sales staff (in the name of meeting the targets) compels me to think whether the company mahindra deserves such people.in the final analysis, it is the company’s name that will take the beating and not the staff (which always seeks greener pastures).

8. under the circumstances, i find it difficult to continue with the membership. if at the outset we can be treated like the way we have been, who knows what will happen in future.

9. please take action to discontinue emi payments (ecs) from my a/c no. [protected] at syndicate bank, 27 ed, air force, pinto park, palam, new delhi. also make arrangements to refund the entire amount paid by me so far. also advise me before hand the deductions, if any. the refund cheque can be sent to the same bank above in the name of gp capt pk gupta.

10.in convenience is regretted. let me make it clear that i have tried my best to avoid taking such step, but in vein.

Regards,
Yours sincerely.

I have taken a membership of Club Mahindra in last Dec but regret my decision to do so as even after giving more than 10 options for dates & location for my first vacation, none of these were available. So I have decided to cancel the membership & I have given request for cancellation of my membership (membership no. 1648372) in third week of Dec 09. I am following up with the club mahindra for last more than 35 days for refund of my money but they are delaying the refund for no reason. I was informed that refund will take 30 days & now even after more than 30 days, no refund is processed so far. When i have enquired about the same, now they have informed me that refund will take 45 days. During this period since Dec 09, I have written so many mails & given number of calls but Club Mahindra team did not even bothered to give me a feed back on my refund status on their own. It is very sad on part of one of leading Indian group like Mahindra & its shows their responsiveness towards customers. While influencing the customers for enrolling for the membership they don’t give even a day to think whereas when it comes to refund the amount, this is a way they are acting.

My membership id is 1510210. Ii had submitted a letter for refund of money to venue manager
Mahindra holidays & resorts
Shop no. 21 the eastend mall
Multiplex plot no-64, vibhuti khand
Lucknow

At the time of taking the membership your sales executive mr vikas arora had told me to deposit rs 31113/- and he will get me rs 6000/- through your scheme of introducing friend. During aug 09 when i called him for booking, he told me to send mail at his e-mail id. When i submitted the dates and enquired about rs 6000/- he stopped attending my calls. Whenever i managed to contact him through different no. His reply was that he will call me lattar. This was repeated many times and one day he suggested me to sent an application for refund. As i feel cheated by your employee and on his words i had submmited the following application at your lucknow branch at wave mall. 20 days back.

To,
Venue manager

I am serving in indian air force as a clerk and and feel that an employee of company like club mahindra shouldnot try to fool a defence personnal. And hope i will get my hard earned money very soon.

Resorts are never available: Club Mahindra will go on increasing the number of members but does not bother about increasing the resorts. Result is that the number of room nights possible across all resorts in the entire year is much less the no of room nights they have promised to their members as a whole. This is a simple calculation which can be done by looking at the data disclosed in their offer document filed at the time of IPO. How do they plan to satisfy their customers in such a situation. Obviously, you have to book six months in advance if you want to book for a weekend. Planning six months in advance in this jet-age is a joke!! I would not suggest anybody to waste money over this membership. Even if you are inclined to take membership, you should buy it from members who are ready to sell it at great discount. Check Orkut, Facebook or EBay. There are hundreds of members giving discount.

I had registered as a member of Club mahindra at their Gurgaon Sales office in Mega Mall (#124, Mega Mall, DLF Phase 1, Gurgaon - 122002) on 5th April 2008. I gave Rs 29978 through my credit card. I cancelled the membership on 11th April i.e. after 6 days. I was told that I can cancell within 10 days if I do not like. There after I had sent numerous mails and made at least 50 calls to their Delhi office in Pitampure. Every time I get the reponse that this month by 15th I will get back my money. 22 months have been elapsed and I have not got my money back. My membership no is: 633508.

Dear Sirs,
We were called by the sales office people of the above said company telling that "we are the previlleged couple who have been selected ananymously as cellphone users & invited for some gift package". Also we were told to come along with spouse to the office situated at 4th Block, Jayanagar (next to bust stand). When we went there, they told us full length about the company & the future prospectous. We were made to commit to accept this offer at that point of time only. During discussion, sale executive told us all rosy picture only. But, he has not told us about "what will happen to our hard earned money if we cancelled the membership". Also they have not given us time to take the brouchers to home, study the details & understand the terms & conditions mentioned in their membership rule book. & then to apply for the membership. Every thing the executive made us to commit sitting across the table & sign the membership forum. During that time, I was not haveing the money to pay membership fee since I was not knowing any thing ( why he called us? & what for he called us?). So immediately, the executive after filling membership admission form, he sent his office staff along with me to my house to get the A/c payee cheque of Rs. 20,000/- from me (cheque book was at home). Overall, the executive & the Club Mahindra Holidays company has cheeted my hard earned money of almost 1,00,000/- (approximately) by not telling me the truth, if I reject the Club Mahindra membership. Infact, I tried to contact the chairmen of Club Mahindra Holidays & inform him about "How his team is fooling with common man of the country. Unfortunately, I couldn't get his contact address , e-mail id or phone number.
Hence I request your kind attention in solving this issue & get my hard earned money back form the Club Mahindra Holidays.
Thanking you Sir,

Your's faithfully,
V.Manjunath

Yercaud trip was our first time family trip to a Club Mahindra associated resort. To tell the fact, it was one of the best experience of a holiday. Right from the services provided to the ambience, everything was perfect for relaxation. The antiques of the heritage resort, even in the unnoticed regions, uniquely designed rooms covering, scenic beauty, activities conducted bring people closer. Be it the morning trek or the night bon fire, gave a touch of an excellent unforgettable holiday!

Special thanks to team Mahindra holiday & thumbs up for many more holidays we are waiting to make it happen.

I have applied for cancellation of my membership no.1473579. Along with my cancellation request I have expressed my willingness to complete 25% payment which is required as per the terms and conditions of the membership.

I have sent several reminders to Member Relations Team of Club Mahindra , however there is no action regarding the cancellation.

i have send a mail to cancel my club mahindra membership which is on my name - Manas Prakash Shinde (Membership No[protected] and similar request is been placed through your call center (Complaint no [protected] on 11th Jan 2009. I have received all documents along with membership id on 6th Jan 2009. Since i am cancelling the policy within 10 days of getting the policy. Not received any confirmation on same

we have taken the membership the persom come to us from club mahindra Name Mr. Joy he took 15000 & give wrong information to us.

now no response from him & their colleges they are not giving refund also

I have a concern to share with you and really need you support on this.

I become a member of Club Mahindra on 25th June 08 for 1BR Red and deposited Rs.[protected]+25000+5292). Due to some personal reasons I cancelled the member ship the very next day i.e. 26th Jun 08. And the cancellation letter was received by Mr. S.K Jha on the same date. According to him, the companies rule were that the payment will be done with in a maximum period of one month.

We regret to say that even after a lapse of almost 1 year 7 months we did not receive either the refund or any positive response from the company. Even after several personal visits to the Noida office, and numerous phone calls to Mr. S. K Jha.

The last time we visited the Noida office which is in Centre stage Mall in Noida on Mar 20, 2009. And had a discussion over the phone with a lady from the consumer concern depatt of club mahindra. that we might get our payment by end of the week. We again wrote a reminder mail on Mar 21, 2009 to the consumer service deptt.

We regret to say that yet we have not recived our money back it has been about 1 year an d 7 months that we have been writting to the company and visting the office to get the money back.

It will be very kind of you of helping us in getting our money back.I stay in Noida, sec 33. Please contact me on my number Shalini Singh [protected]

Thanks,
Shalini Singh

I am also another of the ones who got sucked into the aggresive marketing efforts of m/s club mahindra holidays, who after getting the membership forms signed and getting the money never care to deliver what they promise to offer.

The free offers, offered at the time of signing up have not been delivered and everytime i tried to avail my holidays i have been always waitlisted and if i want accommodation in south india they will w/l and as an alternate give you accommodation in north india. When i wanted something in north india they were offering in south india.

It is a ridiculous module they offer and ask you to book 6 months to 1 year in advance which in itself is ridiculous.

Anyway i with membership no 576355 signed up in jan 2008 have sent umpteen emails to cancel my membership and refund me my hard earned money, stop withdrawing money through ecs but all have fallen on deaf ears and till date nobody has responded.

Well the only course left with me is to seek legal help which will only add to my agony and expense.

Please be careful of club mahindra holidays who are not giving lifetime of fun filled holidays but lifetime of headaches.

My name is Shadilal I went to Binsar along with my wife & my friend. We enjoyed the resort stay beyond expectations, the environment is so clear we forget the daily routine & become so refreshed. The staff were so cordial & cooperative and we can’t forget the hospitality. The food was so good – reminds me of home cooked food.

We also enjoyed their new launched Manipur villa and look forward to more such holidays.
