How do telemarketers work!

Telemarketers Work Like This:
 
OK, so many people receive calls on a regular basis. Many of these calls are non-solicited calls. This means calls you don't have any idea why you are getting. There are a couple things you need to know if you don't know why you are getting these annoying calls.
  • You should be able to ask the person who is calling you why they are calling you, and how they got your information.
  • Regardless of how good the offer sounds, make it a point to find out who gave that company your information. If the person you are talking to does not provide you with the information, then make sure you have them removed your name from their list. 
  • Companies are required to scrubbed their telephone lists against the national "do not call list". Meaning they should be able to include your name and number in that list, so nobody can solicit you any more. 
  • If you are in the "Do not call list", and you are receiving calls, you can take the company's information and complaint against them with the department of agriculture and consumer services. Whoever is calling you will get penalize and fined for not keeping their data up to date with the government standards.
Remember not all companies are bad and not everyone sells your information, but there are a lot of companies out there trying to make a quick buck, and they don't follow federal standards. They are there for a reason, and with your help we can make sure we can hold them accountable.

Can vacations be cheap?

How many people fall for the one time deal on the phone telemarketing call trying to sell you a vacation package at an incredible price?
My answered is too many.

Think about it, a person you don't know calls you, and within 15 minutes they have asked you, your personal information, and everything from whether you are married, where you lived and where you went for your last vacation.

Please make sure you don't fall for these type of advertisers. So many of them are honest, but some many more are not. What they will do is take your information and try to get some money for it.
If you have giving them your Credit Card you should be afraid, because many of these marketers don't even have a license to operate much less a merchant account.

Therefore, when you receive one of these calls please make sure you are taking into consideration the following:
  • You are not being pressured into making a split second decision.
  • You are able to check their credentials including their license number with their state they claim to operate at.
  • Make sure they can give you a working customer service toll free number, and you are able to contact someone within hours or minutes of being contacted.  Sometimes is better just to gather the information and just make a random call to see if they do have people working at that 1800 number.
  • Check and see with the Better Business Bureau if they have any outstanding complaints and also check with the department of agriculture and consumer affairs for that state to make sure they are actually registered with any of those entities and if their complaints mean they might be doing something illegal. 
  • Save giving your credit card information. Try to ask for alternative forms of payment. Also, ask what name is going to appeared in the credit card statement. If they are calling from your holiday getaway them make sure that is the name it will appeared in the statement otherwise you are setting yourself for trouble.
  • Remember to ask for a receipt of the transaction, but before you even pay for anything make sure you have a clear understanding of the return and refund policy. These people try to get you all emotive and then claim you only had 7 days to return the package which did not even arrive at your residence for 15 days. 
  • Finally remember you are protected, if you feel you were scammed or robbed; please contact your banking or financial institution and ask to do a charge back on the transaction on the basis of not getting the promised product.
  • The law is that anything sold which is non-tangible is 100% refundable no matter what, and these people will try to convince you otherwise. Don't believe them, it is simple mentioned the word charge back to them, and they will return your money faster than fast.
Please remember there are some bad people out there harming others. Legit companies are giving consumers options to make sure they can keep content and safe. If a telemarketer is telling you, you have to do it now, then don't do it. It doesn't matter how much you seem to be saving, it is not worth it.
Now don't think that you can not be part of a great offer, and a good discounted vacation package. Those are for real! Resorts are always looking for qualified participants to promote their Time Shares... But please be safe, and try to work with someone honest. Do your homework and don't buy anything that a telemarketer tells you over the phone. Email Me if you need more information, or if you feel you have been scammed. Thanks!

Afforable Disney World Vacations to Orlando, Florida!!

Disney World Made Affordable

It is not a secret! Orlando, is a vacation destination for millions of tourist around the world.
Visitors come to Orlando, looking to have a special time with their love ones. After all Orlando, holds so many attractions and places to seek entertainment that the usual visitor would have to spend almost a whole month to see it all.

However, what happens after the vacation is over and that visitor goes back home? They go back to their towns and homes and they start looking for ways to pay off the credit cards, and also finding new income to re-gain the money they did not plan to spend when they were there. Thus defeating the purpose of having taken a vacation at all!!!

Its always the same story! But, what about utilizing the hospitality industry for your own benefit????

This is something not too many people are aware of!!!!
Resorts, which you can find abundantly in Orlando; are usually looking for individuals to come and visit them just to tour their properties and hopefully buy with them (which no one is required to do). You only have to purchase a vacation package (sold only by specific seller of travel companies in Florida) where you only pay 10% or 20% of the original cost for your accommodations, and save a bundle. To make it even a better bargain, they will compensate you for the time you spend on the "VIP Tour". Different Resorts in Orlando will offer different things, but most of them will certainly give you passes for some of the attractions, and they will pay for either your breakfast, lunch or dinner for that day.
It does not get any better than that!!!
Now, there are certain things one has to watch before purchasing from any of these so called "sellers of travel"!!!
  • First, make sure they disclosed everything in their pitch or sales presentation!
Basically don't ever buy from a telemarketer who does not proves its identity. Ask for phone number, website, email address, address, if you can buy in person, state license, affiliations, names of the resorts, find out if they are really selling for that resort, and finally do not give your credit card unless you know they are going to do a verification at the end of the sale. A verification is not only for their protection. Pay attention to what they are saying on that verification; many companies try to confuse you by a game of words; so make sure you don't agree with anything you have not agree with before.

  • Second, make sure they are not just going after your credit card, and they are willing to work with you and your needs. 

So many times we receive calls from people trying to attempt access to our credit cards, and they just expect us to be there just ready to open our wallets and handle cc numbers for them to use at their will. Make sure whoever calls you has an extension number where you can call them back, and they are OK with that.

  • Third, remember to ask for more!!!
 These companies have access to unlimited amount of resources! Don't be afraid to bargain. However, also make sure you don't miss out on the opportunity at the best vacation package deal of your life, just because you feel greedy.

  • Fourth, and final suggestion is to make sure you follow these things, and you prepare yourself to have the time of your life!!!
If you take care of everything you need to, you will be sure to not have any problems at all. Go on your vacation to Orlando, pay less than half for accommodations (and save on attraction tickets and much more), and go back home happy and wealthy by having saved a ton!!!
