Team_Eureka's Vegas Escapades!

[corkeye]

How good are Team Eureka at complaining? The whole apartment thing is a total joke and if you kick off enough i'm sure they'll cave and get you something in return? Have heard stories about people complaining at hotels etc and getting some sick upgrades. Don't just settle once they sort u out, threaten to give them really bad PR

[Mitch]

Also Alex/Mitch do you think you could live in Vegas all summer grinding? If not what's the longest u think ud enjoy?

Dont know really. If your running well and winning you feel like you never want to go home.
If your losing and feeling a bit down on yourself, you just cant get away from the whole gambling thing and it can be depressing.

Each time ive come ive stayed a bit longer, this being the longest. Maybe being off strip helps take a breather. but at the minute i just want to be in amongst the action!

These people are lying scumbags and they literally just do not care. On day 1 I demanded money back so we could organise something else because they just didn't have our apartments and obviously weren't going to have them for a while. They said "ok come back tomorrow we'll have your money", then when it came to it they said they had organised apartments for the next day (day 3) and so I didn't need to get my money back, yay! I said no thanks money back, they said "no we already paid it to the owner you can't have it back." I said "money back or I call a lawyer" and they basically said "ok bring it on".

I wasn't bluffing, I did call a lawyer but he said since his costs are $300/hr it wasn't worth getting him involved to get our $9k back and we should take the apartments they offered, which is the situation we're in now, day 5 of our booking and we have 1 apartment. The lawyer did helpfully recommend some stuff we can do, namely reporting them to the real estate department so they lose their license and taking them to the small claims court, both of which I will be doing.

The whole thing is just ridic stressful tho and has completely ruined my trip. The others are being really good about it but it's definitely dragged down spirits and was v stressful for them before they got here knowing that they didn't have a gtd place to sleep when they arrived. It's extra annoying because I said I'd sort us all a sick place to stay and these ***** have made me look like a right mug.

I don't want to look like I'm shifting the blame here, but if people outed these companies sooner this could have been avoided. I got loads of recommendations about this place last year, basically everyone who stayed here said it was the best thing since sliced bread, 3 mins from venetian, nice modern apartments, quiet pool and pretty cheap. Now all this has blown up I'm hearing stories of people coming back to find the bank has foreclosed on the apartment and changed the locks, deposits going missing for no reason etc. Months ago when I initially went to book this place I contacted Rob Angood who stayed here last year, he got back to me with the details of the agent who sorted him out, so I assumed we had a decent reputable contact. Now it apparently turns out that Rob still hasn't got his deposit back from last year. I thought this was common sense, but since it apparently isn't obvious, if someone ever asks you for contact details for a company and that company has ripped you off, say "steer clear of them, they ripped us off", not "yes mate, here you go".

TILTTTTT


@stato: give me a call when you land, I'll come and pick you up.

What a bag of shit I feel for you guys especially keys !

Take it on the chin and don't let it spoil your trip guys ...c'mon chins up and do some wins

[outragous76]

If it was me, I'd bite the bullet and get a hotel on strip!

Id then go to a supermarket and stock up on booze

Then I'd head downtown pick up as many low life's waifs and strays as I could find and have a "house party"

Or safe in the knowledge you aren't getting a deposit back, have your own end of stay party

Key's is doing a good job, but it's defo withered him and he understandably doesn't seem to have to strength to battle on with it anymore.

Today we tried to use the pool facilities that are for the whole complex. We'd been given a key/pass to let us in the pool area but it didn't work. Security said we couldn't go in and we had to contact our vendor for a new key. We said they havent been answering their phone for two days. They said they're probably only open Monday-Friday and we should try again tomorrow. "Can't we just use it today just this once until we get our key sorted, I mean we obviously live here we have an apartment".

"No."

GTFO AMERICA
