Club Mahindra Holidays Complaints & Reviews

Club Mahindra executive contacted me in the month of August/ September 2020 regarding the Club Mahindra timeshare product. He explained me the product details in detail and was patient enough to answer my queries. He was very gentle and prompt, But " THE CANCELLATION POLICY WAS NOT EXPLAINED". So we zeroed down to the White Studio membership and I payed the down payment on the 8th September 2020. Later After few days I got a Validation call from Club Mahindra in which also " THE CANCELLATION POLICY WAS NOT MENTIONED and obviously not EXPLAINED".

But due to some financial constraints which hit me in the Covid Pandemic, the membership became a taxing affair for me and I searched for a cheaper alternative and came across the Club Mahindra GoZest membership. So I contacted the executive and requested for getting my existing membership converted to the GoZest membership and in this regard I mailed him a request on 22nd October 2020 which was supposed to be forwarded to membership experience portal..After days of getting no reply from CM, I decided to directly mail the pune office executive for the same and had brief exchange of mail in which he denied my request and subsequently denying my cancellation request and stating it as non refundable..

Now coming to the pune executive reply ""In this membership, you had opted for a 10% DP and 48 EMI Plan, in which we have received Rs. 31, 340/- payment which is 10% of the membership fee payable. As the same is less than 60% (Admission fees), this amount stands non-refundable as per membership clause 8.2 of the membership.""


1) How would a customer know your cancellation and other policies when he is not being presented it in person or on paper. So practically and technically I have not entered into an agreement nor I am a signitory to your terms and conditions.

2) How does a validation call can prove I am in agreement with your terms and conditions when they haven't explained it in detail especially the cancellation policy.

I hope you must be tens and hundreds policies which cannot be explained and approved telephonically.

3) Even The membership kit you couriered me does not have a leaflet of your terms and conditions so how am I supposed to know.

So in which of our conversation or documentation this "CLAUSE 8.2 WAS DISCUSSED"

4) For The example you quoted, I have payed a Down payment or say a advance for your product which I haven't used yet and was supposed to use it from July 2021 as mentioned on the membership card. So for a service of which I haven't used a single percent how am I supposed to loose all the down payment or say a advance. Will your UNSIGNED policy stand in legal jurisdiction.

MY CASE STANDS WELL IN THE CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT (CPA) SECTION 48, SECTION 51 AND SECTION 68.

5) Initially I simply requested you for an exchange and not a cancellation. Exchange of a unused product is acceptable in the whole world. Why on earth CLUB MAHINDRA is denying that they cannot exchange. Every system does have a bypass or they can have one to retain and satisfy their customer.

6) Even when I applied for cancellation I meant to re register for your product only.

So I think if you take the matter and above mentioned things in consideration, things can be worked upon from your end.

The fact of non refundable amount is totally unacceptable and I would have to access my legal rights through proper channel.

I would again request you either you cancel my membership with a acceptable10-15% deduction or simply convert my membership to GoZest.

I would like to mention that Mr Devashish, Mr Sameer and Mr Mayur, you people were really polite and prompt in responding to my request and queries. I understand that you are bounded by your company's rule and regulation and have limited authority at your end but having said that the policies does not stand in my favour and I have the right to voice it out. Surrendering my hard earned money is not at all an option and ethically even the company should not forfeit customers money for a unused service.

I am again expecting a positive feedback and expect a linient and practical approach from your side. Once again " It is better to retain a customer than loosing him"

We want to raise a complaint regarding Mr Anand and Miss Tanya Agents at Club Mahindra NSP branch Delhi who fraudently used our credit card for EMI deduction of Go Zest without our permission and prior intimation.
Mr Anand and Miss Tanya offered us free holiday package by calling us at Barista NSP on 2/2/2021 .They also told us about the GoZest package, on being our unsurety about the package they told us to give minimum 21, 780 and avail the holiday at package club mahindra .On liking the resorts and holiday only then we have to pay the rest EMI of GoZest package else membership will automatically be cancelled.But all the comitments regarding holiday and payments which were made by both the agents regarding the package came out to be false during our holiday at Club Mahindra .

We have given the negative feedbacks on the calls which we have recieved from club mahindra, regading the agents and holiday stay at club mahindra and also about the false comitments made to us by both the agents, each time representatives on call say -"higher authorities will call u ".But no calls recieved till yet. And now all of the sudden EMI of this package was auto debited from my credit card without prior intimation.

I have not selected any auto debit option through my card on my membership form, and even not given any authority to Mr Anand or Ms Tanya to do so.

This is case of fraud which these people had done .

I request you to look into the matter and refund my emi amount which got auto debited from my card without my authorization and also cancel this package

My membership number: 2855706
Reference number - MHRIL=[protected]

This is to inform that during Feb 2019, had availed membership facility from Club Mahindra. For that have paid Rs.28500 on 2nd Feb 2019 and remaining amount through EMI basis of Rs.13458/- every month.

From April 2019 onwards, have started paying EMI every month. Had paid till Aug 2019. Total amount paid was Rs.95790/-

Later my wife underwent medical treatment on Sept 2019 hence fell short of funds could not pay EMI from Sept 2019 onwards.

Thereafter have applied for cancellation on Oct 2019. Post that they had asked for proof of medical treatment, that also had shared to them.

After sharing requisite information, one of the staff - Mayur Bhujbal called and confirmed that you will get refund but need to wait since same was forwarded to HO for approval.

Later in the middle of pandemic, he called and confirmed that you will not get 100% refund, some amount might get deducted as cancellation charges and remaining amount will be refunded.

After that, no response from him or from company. Then have started doing follow ups regularly, then many staff from Club Mahindra started to call and asked me to go for one holiday trip post that decide for either cancellation or to continue but have said I need cancellation only as my situation is very bad since 2019.

After that no response from company and they forced me to complain at consumer forum for solution.

3 times your company without asking transfer money from my account.
I want my money back otherwise i will do the case against your company.

We baught a membership in club Mahindra for 3 years. The employee Vignesh promised us to extend the tenure of we don't use it for one year due to covid situation. Believing him we paid the whole money. However, till today he hasn't sent us any mails.

We purchased the White season holiday package from Club Mahindra Holidays in November 2010. In past 11 years whenever we tried booking, have never been successful. Our holiday days have lapsed over years due to apathy of the management. Neither our lapse days adjusted against the annual charges.
Once again unable to book for my holidays.

Either help me book for my required holidays or cancel my membership with full refund immediately.

My holidays are lapsed.
I already asked club mahindra through customer care regarding this policy.
Due to covid 19 me and my family members are unable to travel. Still the situation is not clear.
It was committed from club mahindra, holidays will not be deducted from account. (Member ID:2761483)
Now they are not listening about this query.

When I complained about the quality of hotel in Jaipur and Mahabaleshwar, I was given few days as compensation but within 15 days my days were taken back saying excess holidays lapsed . Then whether that compensation was just for show ?

Hi Team
Please cancel my membership with id 2861080 and please stop auto debit from my account

I have already sent multiple mails from my registered email id but haven’t gotten any response

Dear Sir/Madam,
I had registered for Club Mahindra membership on 21st November, 2020, but due to my personal financial reasons, I had sent a cancellation request under clause 8.1 Part C through mail on 22nd November, 2020 to [protected]@clubmahindra.com and 25th of November, 2020 to [protected]@mahindraholidays.com. I had also sent a letter to the Corporate Office at Mumbai, through courier on 25th of November 2020 which were all within the cooling period of 10 days mentioned in the Club Mahindra terms and conditions to get full refund of down payment made. We have been repeatedly asked to submit post dated cheques even after cancellation request. Club Mahindra promised to refund the amount within 90 days of cancellation request but it has been 120 days since cancellation and we have yet not received the refund. I really regret to have believed Club Mahindra which is not concerned on its customers' situation. My membership ID is 2931164 which I request to cancel the ID and provide 100% refund by taking this complaint on high priority basis.

I purchased the membership on 9th Mar 2021. I asked for cancellation on 10th Mar 2021. Till date I sent 4 cancellation emails but there is no response from your team. Even I tried to customer care, but the number is switched off msg I am getting. I am not sure is my membership is getting cancelled? When I will receive my refund?

Member I'd 2934441
We cancelled the membership within 10 days of booking, the sales person mentioned that it will be refund within 90 days. But after cancellation is initiated the email says 120 days for refund.

I was lured into accepting a membership upgrade my marketing team of club mahindra at their Naukuchia location in Feb 2021. I paid a token advance for the same, but later I could not amass the balance required to go through with the upgrade deal. So I asked them to cancel the upgrade application and refund the advance amount I had paid earlier. However, club mahindra is yet to pay the same after 45 days of emails and tele calls. They are instead planning to adjust the amount again Annual Fees due from me in future. I have written to Mr Sujit Paul, Ms Meghana Joshi, Mr Niranjan Gaur and also emailed to their address at [protected]@mahindraholidays.com, but to no avail. I would not have taken this step if I wasnt financially in a tight spot as I am now. I have no liabilities towards club mahindra. My refund would not entail any net loss to the organisation. I am asking for them to return what is legitimately mine. No money should be withheld from a client to pay for 'future dues'. If is a bit surprising that even the people at the top are not sensitive to grievances of members and they have ignored my emails for days together.

I am unable to pay EMI every month
and your ASP fee
I am retire person
so please cancel my membership and refund amount
my membership ID No.2759765

My name is Sudheendra rao. Member I.d 2937052. I had joined the Club mahindra on 09/1/21 and due to some unavoidable circumstances me and my wife requested for termination of membership within 10days time-frame. Finally after meeting sales manager again, she agreed to cancel our membership. After few days we received a email saying that our membership cancellation is in the process and the amount paid will be refunded within 90 days. A token amount of 30, 740 rs was paid while joining. Even after the cancellation a amount of 10248 rs has been deducted from my credit card . I have sent emails and called their customer support but there is no help.

This is jaffar from salem am doing a business. I received a call from club Mahindra regarding free coupon and they advised to atten the meeting with family . we also attented the meeting 75 minutes with family .after meeting they gave free coupon at the time told that three days two nights with morning breakfast and dinner food free. i booked munnar resort (club mahandra mount serene) Booing id no. 6D5AD999ED. But now they told that room only free food will not be provide. So This is cheating not a professional way.
