I purchased the cruise deal on NBC's today show " Jills steals and deals". My daughter also purchased the same cruise . The package was for a 4 day carnival cruise, and a 2 night hotel stay in 4 ports., one being Miami, and 1 being LA. It is now April 5th, and my daughter is leaving on sunday for LA. Her cruise is booked, but she hasn't received a confirmation on her hotel .We are suppose to leave on Wednesday for Miami. Our cruise is booked, but still have not gotten our hotel confirmation either. I would never have purchased this if it wasn't for the reputation of a major news network. We have both called the hotels, the one in Miami is at the Hilton, and they have not gotten confirmation from these people as of today. If you call there, the phone rings and goes back to the message. Very frustrated. I am going to try to get ahold of NBC on Friday. I have a neighbor who is an anchor at the local NBC station. Wish me luck. And by the way, the woman who booked our cruise was Sherry, and Monte was suppose to get back with us on the hotels!!!He did leave us an e-mail that we would receive our reservations last week, and still no reply. I'm at wits end. good luck people.

Destination Ventures International is currently promoting a 3 day vacation at the Hilton in downtown Miami, FL. The cost is $399.00 and the promotion will end in 3 days on 3/27/2012. To make sure this is not a scam, I called the Hilton. I called 3 times and no one was able to confirm this promotion. One hotel clerk told me not to do this. This is really sounding like a scam. I will attempt to contact Destination Ventures International tomorrow to hear what they have to say. But, it looks like I will have to make other vacation plans. I work too hard for my money to get caught up in a scam and loose it. If its too good to be true, it usually is.
