High pressure sales tactics to purchase a new and improved kind of travel + buying club extraordinaire. Not one of the promises of widely available and networked travel sites were available. Ever. Customer service hours are Central Time Zone, M-Th 8-7, Friday 8-6, and Sat. 8-12, period. Of course there is a members only website that has very sparse information. Any requests for vacation lodging have to be made on-line, carry a 129. booking fee, and customers are reminded that in the fine print it says that a response to a search will take as long as two weeks. The only request I made came up empty, with the note that Global did not have any resort facilities in Cal near beaches, period. The website shows a picture of a young man with a surfboard, which leads one to wonder where he was surfing. In general the whole deal was a scam. Not one of the promises for personal travel agent service, and wider range of booking locales proved true. The service has been horrible and the property locations this bunch has bought up are pretty shoddy looking on close inspection. My husband and I lost 3000. to these crooks and we knew better.
