Anyone wishing to file a complaint on this company should contact the Florida Attorney Generals Office. Thats where I sent mine. If enough people file maybe we can get something back from these crooks.
If you got screwed by the Certs travel company that offeres the travel awards you should file against them too.

The FL AG web site. WWW.myfloridalegal.com or call.
On the bottom left there is a link to register your complaint.

Concerning Royal Palm Vacations, I am in the same boat as all of you, I did send a formal complaint to the Attorney General Of Florida, and am awaiting news. We have all been scammed, and none of us will get our money back, as there are more than one company involved, including Capital Financial, Suncoast vacations CERTS, and others. BEWARE: all they want is your money.
Please get in touch with the AG of Florida. We must stick together, perhaps a class action suit?
Any other ideas? I did send a complaint to the BBB of Florida as well.
Thanks to all of you, we might get them.

I spoke with the representative in Reno( Elise). She wasvery abusive and told me that we had a contract. I told her we were canceling and asked to speake with someone other than her. She stated she was in charge. I ask her for her attorney's name so that our atty. could send our cancellation. She refused.
My wife and I would like to se thease people shut down.

Well I can tell you I signed up for RPV also and wrote my check to World Vacations which was deposited in an account for Imperial Incentives, Bank of America Clearwater, FL. So tell me they are not one in the same. This is the company offering the complimentary gift and giving the presentation for the travel club. If they can't get you to fall for there Travel Club the least they're hoping is get $199/per person for the cruise. Which is also a bogus deal to if you read their terms as Mr. Peaden, CEO of Certs stated. So which state are they in now and how many US citizens will be taken of their hard earned $$ before someone takes them out. Oh yea Mr. Peaden says he is CEO of Certs, Inc dba-Imperial Incentives, dba-World Vacations Destination, dba-Capital Financial Marketing, dba-Suncoast Vacations, dba-Suncoast Incentives LLC, dba-World Vacation Network, dba-travelservices USA, need I go on. Or is Nick Congleton or Donald W. Griffin CEO. Hmmm maybe the Attoney General Bill McCollum will find out.

We too have been scammed out of $4, 450. We want our money back and would like to be part of any class action suit. They have offered us nothing but junk not where requested and not on dates requested. Say they have to wait for something to come in. We have been waiting for a month now. Long enough to see that this is a scam. Gifts were a hoax too.

There is an open case against World Vacation Destinations, LLC. Does anyone know if this includes Royal Palm Vacations?

Scammed for $4000 by RPV and CERTS, supposed to get free "minivacations" sent "deposit to CERTS, heard nothing.
Booked a hotel room on RPV website, same price as the hotel website plus a booking fee on RPV. I am writing to the PA and FL AG for an investigation and refund.

We also booked a vacation on US Airways website that was several hundred dollars cheaper than the exact same vacation on RPV. Is there anywhere else to complain ?

Royal Palm Vacations, United Vacation Network, Suncoast Vacations, Suncoast LLC, World Vacations, Imperial Incentives, Capitol Financial, Travel Services USA, among others...

Office Manager:

Christy Daniel

last known address:
12360 84TH WAY N.
Largo, Fl 33773

her Prison release information and picture:

To everyone who is a member to any one of the below listed fraudulent companies:

... I wish to say that I am sorry... I had no Idea this company that I worked for was like this. Please take this information and do what you have to do with it.

Royal Palm Vacations, Travel Services USA, United Vacation Network, Suncoast Vacations, Suncoast LLC, World Vacations, Imperial Incentives... and many more names... all the same company... many different lawsuits with Atty generals and the state of FL... All ran out of Tampa Bay... (Largo, FL) actually.

For all of you Royal Palm members... there is NO office in Nevada... we were told to tell you that so you could not find where they were...

Google any of the above listed names, or look on ABC Action News of Tampa Bay... and search any of those above names... you will see big news reports of scams...

They never have any vacations available to you... if you place a request for vacation, they will respond "sorry, no avail" which means no availability... when they never even check. For airfare, we used the same websites that you at home do... travelocity, orbits, and expedia... then we would add a percentage to that price because we had to make some money too... So, all this company does is take your $3000.00 - $6000.00, and your ASC (Annual Service Charge). Then they sit there, and do nothing except to reply to you..."sorry no avail" and continue collecting your ASC every year...

FYI: Christy Daniels is the Office Manager (she was in prison for a few years because she was running a fraudulent business before working for these companies... funny huh?!), Amanda is the office supervisor... and the owner of all those false and fraudulent businesses is... Nick Congleton.

To anyone who is a member of any one of those listed fraudulent companies, ... I highly suggest contacting the Florida Atty General, and the Nevada Atty General... good luck all...
