This company is a fraud. The sales pitch talks about how much money you can save on hotels, resorts, cruises, and vacations. In reality, you can only save money through their very limited specials. I need to book a hotel for travel next month. The hotel itself does have higher listed prices than Sears Vacations. However, Sears Vacations advertised an 18% savings. They must be tacking on fees at the back end (exactly what they say they don't do), because the actual savings would have been $3.44. That works out to less than 1/2 of a percent! To pay for a membership and save 0.5% per booking is crazy.
More importantly, I've been trying to cancel my account for a week. I've called three times now, and everytime I call, the proper department to speak to is conveniently closed during otherwise normal operating hours for the company. Yesterday, I was told that "the department" (never named) will be open today from 7am - 3pm. Called today, spoke to an unbelievably rude "concierge" just to be told they are not open on the weekend. My next call will be to an attorney. Better Business Bureau complaint forthcoming!
Save yourself the aggreivation; the membership is not worth your money. You can find deals via other outlets like Groupon Getaways that don't require a financial commitment on your part. I wish I would have read these reviews before signing up!
