Hi

I joined Best Western in mid/late 2016 but never used its service. I only used 1 free night stay in Melaka.

FYI I paid half of my membership by credit card upon joining & remaining half through monthly instalment (which I am still paying).

Is this Best Western really a scam?

Appreciate your advice.

Thank you very much.

I signed this package since 2016 too. So far i only claimed 1 time and forever can't claim for the free night. Its Actually not worth at all if you compare the night with the hotel on the website agoda. They try not to pick up my phone and not even reply my message.

I hope no more other victims will fall on this scam again. Pm me if you need further advise.

Hello,

I also bought package with best western exchange in march 2015. Now similar to all of you they are refusing to help stating many restrictions to bookings which were not mentioned during sales. Many empty promises made during sales thus I only managed to use 9/42 points. Was told by sales person that as long as package is fully paid, i will be able to book as many rooms as i wanted however when i tried to book maximum allowed was either 2-3 rooms. Paid 9000 for package. Customer service is very bad as they are rude and unhelpful. They avoid your calls and emails. Any ideas what can be done in order to get a full refund?

To all who are reading this, please do not join the package. It is a scam.

Just for the info u guys can check on
http://dreamyskyblue.blogspot.my/2015/09/e...-club-scam.html

, looks like many were lured in signing up with them.
As for my case, i did not manage to report as when we went in a group to ask further , they refunded our full money on the spot through IBG. We were lucky in that way.

Hope whomever signing up do a thorough research and get everything black and white on the spot, Dont give them their own sweet time to send you  the terms and condition. It is alot of money involved.

i create the blog complaining finally they refund my money and asked me to deleted the post. pray and wish everyone will get refunded ya. i can't get the total amount of money to pay it off thats why i request refund within a month of sign up

now after reading you guys problem kinda worried sweat.gif since i sign up with another vacation package with another company which based on same location called Gloria Plaza Hotel Sandakan with different marketing plan

yes they did but we went in a group. if u read the the blog i mentioned. there is a guy name andrew. u can email him and  maybe he can guide u. we all got together through him.
if u see the blog. alot of the best western personel r in it trying to blame we the customers for their mistake.
we should have just complained to tppm n the  request for refund.

Since we got full refund we didnt proceed further.

hi. i just read this forum. im one of the victim also.. how can i contact Andrew? as i cant read your blog...

Your contract is they will buy back if you did not use it? If yes, they sell back to them.

Here mainly bad feedback and most of them never try the service but instead cancelled it after reading this forum. I dont think is a SCAM but have to see how's the service.

Hi, just to share my experience. I signed up in 2015 n have used it once during school break in 2016. Stayed at Residence Inn, Cherating for 2nights., 6 pax, one executive suite n one std room. Based on the hotel's rate (quoted in the website) both rooms costs rm680 per night. For the RM1360 i was deducted 10 days of the allocated vacation days in the package i signed up. I've just made a booking for this upcoming december school break, hope that it will work out as planned. The package i signed up is exchange club vacation package under the Best Western Sandakan Hotel and Residence (as printed on my membership card) but i noticed that it is now under Gloria Plaza Hotel Sandakan (as printed on the booking form). Hope this helps.
