Russell Watson-VHI Salesman (Conman)
1
Russel Watson and his team of conmen did a presentation for VHI to me at a large Hotel in Boksburg near the airport late 2017. We were promised a free holiday for attending. We attended and long story short we signed because of facts stated as part of the sales pitch by Russell specifically. The 2 reasons we ended up signing were because he said categorically: 1. Give your timeshare week at a gold crown resort and we will resell it for you for R60k each year! We had it on paper where you put the proof all down. 2. He promised cheap accommodation and cheap flights. Both lies as we signed over the week to VHI and they did ZERO and could not rent it out. Eventually just before it expired, I managed to rent it out for a paltry R6k. With regards cheap accommodation and flights, I got better prices through normal channels for both with no difficulty. VHI staff were very unhelpful from the start when we tried to cancel, threatening me every time I was on the phone with the contract and legal action and blacklisting. I will not put the names of all the staff I had this experience with but there are a few! My main gripe is that the director of VHI is obviously an unscrupulous and deceitful scumbag and his staff with Russell Watson specifically...just as deceitful and a liar! Disgusting company.
