Avoid Redtag.ca

[MarkoD]

This is a vacation site like travelocity or expedia in canada.

They are nothing but a scam. They are knowingly advertising resorts with higher ratings than what they really are.

They advertise "price assurance" that says they'll refund the difference up to 4 days before departure if the price goes down. This is a lie.

Avoid Avoid Avoid, nothing but a bunch of clowns working there

I deal with a travel agent, same person I have dealt with for years... Her pricing and packages have always beat any online price/package from any of the major internet sites.

Because it is online, doesn't mean you will get the best price!

HEHE... Live and learn... Remember the one thread awhile back where reefers were bashing me on the SWC skimmer I bought from a LFS? I bought it also based on the price protection they offered, but did not honor... It happens to all of us, at one time or another.

lol i fought with SWC and ended up getting my money back on the broken skimmer they sold me.

i am also fighting redtag. will be reporting them to the bbb, the Competition Bureau. TICO. and anywhere else i can.

then i will go on every trip review website and make sure to post how horrible they are.

If i pursued on customer to not buy from them, i will be happy

You've pursued me.

And global designs has pursued me to contact a travel agent for my next trip. How do you know you've got a good one?

Weird. I booked our trip to Kauai with Travelocity as it was lower than the Resort's website and lower than two different travel agents I tried.

Ive always used Travelocity with great success...... But stupidly tried this other place because of the advertised "price assurance"

Definitely sounds shady Marko. What did they suggest to make it better for you? Anything?

nothing. i argued with the "manager" for hours over the course of 2 days.

after making my argument each time she would always say she'd have to call me back in 20 min. She never did. I ended up calling back 2 hours later and she had left for the day and doesnt work weekends. And i leave for my trip tomorrow

so ill have to deal with it when i get back.
