To be brief with this. I really need you guy s to help me shed more light to this. I actually don't believe any of this but need to share with you guys here. Just to be sure since I actually told my sister not to respond any more to any of the text or call she and her spouse got from some inane organization claiming it's 5 yrs ago visa lottery or blah blah. Sound really with and crazy to me.
Well I don't buy any of this. Read below the message. Oh my sister told me she went to the venue yesterday but there is white men and the place is kind of empty while they ask them to come back today since they came late. Below is the message.

Naija, nawao awon pple yii sha

@op: You can't win what you never applied for. Don't be taken for a ride by opportunistic scammers.

It is real. But there are conditions attached. The seminar is to advertise their holiday package. And you'll be expected to register. And bla bla. I attended one of such. My neighbour is registered with them and enjoys their services.

They are like GNLD and Forever Living only that they sell hotel shares, stays and partnerships. They are also very expensive and they utilise pressure sales. They will give you a wonderful discount if you buy in immediately but full price if at a later date. You will start wwith the lowest cadre which is off peak stay in hotels. As you bring in more people, you work your way to the top.

Don't disturb yourself with it. Load of crap IMO.

If I could cause these HsA people, I would.
In 2009, I think we paid about 800k or so for their membership, after paying the bulk sum, you are expected to pay yearly subscription and some other kind of fees anytime you want to use your membership to book your trip. But we weren't able to benefit from the membership as sometimes our travels were not planned out in time. So we counted our losses and forgot about it.
Fastforward 5yrs later, 2015, they started to call us atleast four times aweek that we won a voucher as long standing clients who didnt get to use their voucher. They disturbed us so much with calls that we had to make out time to go from PH to lag to see what the big free gift was all about.

very very unfortunately, we parted with another $2000 and promised ourselves we would start harnessing the benefits of Hemingway to book our vacations. The free gift was the same free voucher u get when you are forced to sit down for their presentation. You are to sign that it is only when you sit through the entire presentation that you are eligible to collect the free voucher. Sure enough we used the voucher to JHB, the place was lovely, three days stay.
We did the 7days a year for 20yrs package.

Then in 2016, we wanted to travel to Dubai and the US, we called upon Hemingways and to our utter disbelief rrealised that asides the bulk sum that you pay for membership, you actually pay a subscription fee every time you want to utilize your membership, you pay $350. For example our Dubai trip was to cost us $350 subscription fee and another $350 exchange fee. then the US trip another $350 subscription fee and $350 exchange fee. That made a total of $1400 that we were to pay Hemingways, after all the bulk sum we had paid earlier.

Pleaseee...... airbnb, booking.com have cheaper rates for very good accommodations. We suddenly didn't see any benefit of paying that large amount they make you pay when you go for their presentation.

okay what about airport pickup that u mentioned was part of your services..........no comment
what about help with Visas, we need Dubai visa.........pay $180 per person.
Okay what about tourism package, when we do find our way to Dubai, do you offer any tourist package.........no we don't.
You also mentioned discount on air tickets........no we didnt.

Pls any of you who have d opportunity of sitting thru the presentation should please record your conversation with them. We didnt have any proof and thats why we couldnt sue.
You see all those people saying hemingways is legit, pls after you use the free voucher, pls try booking for a trip, do like you are ready to use your subscription and let us know what response you get. You will be shocked to realise the huge amount u paid was just a dash, anytime you try to use them to book a your vacation stay, you will still be asked to pay $700 or more depending on the type of membership.

Its so painful beacaue, the $2000 dollars extra we paid would have been more than enough to cater for accomodation. Pls all you that are members, asides the free voucher, have you ever tried to use your membership for one of your trips before?
Pls try to and see how much more you will be asked to pay
