Country Club Cheating group now in Qatar

Thanks for Country Club Doha Team for providing us a wonderful holiday in Bali.

Room was very nice,my kids had a great time in the Pool.

Let me sincerely tell you that the place is so good and the starting from reception,all the staffs was excellent. Our plan was for 3 full days but we had extended for 1 more day. Over all the experience was amazing and the breakfast we had in the morning... Very very good. My wife who always wanted to be at home and wanted to rush back after every holidays asked to extend the trip.

Thanks for givings us a wonderful family experience,hoping for many more to come .

Thank you for reporting about these cheaters....I just escaped from them as they were offering me free stay at 4 star hotels in 25 countries . I have to go with my family to their office to get the voucher & needs to spend around 1 hour with them for explain how to use the vouchers. Also they were offering me a blender , water heater or juicer any one of it for free of cost.. I just had a doubt & checked in google. Here I found all these stories about these cheaters. I just send all these reviews to the person who called me named Darshan . Again he was trying to canvas me like the bad reviews are writing only their competitors . He has tried his maximum to get me over there .

I can’t believe what just happened,he did it again,A professional hacker just provided me full access to my kids phone calls, text messages and their social media accounts which means i can now monitor their daily activities and also be able to know when they are being misled by anyone. I am happy about this because my kids mean the world to me.You can contact the brain behind the hack at [email protected] for any problems you have that relates to hacking.

Hi! Please let me know if someone got refunded by their bank? Please help me to refund my money and cancel my membership... country vacation club is a big Fraud! Pls be aware and not to fall on there trap...

Guys I had wonderful stay in Singapore.. Nothing more important then my family happiness! Thanks to Mr. Farooq for taking care!

Not everyone is happy. Just trying to compromise. And that's also possible only when Mr.Farooq supports. Because when I asked about few benefits promised by sales team, even Mr.Farooq was shocked. Also Mr.Asif is keen to support.

Good to know that everyone is happy now

Hi Guys,

With a bit of satisfaction now !

We placed our money. So, I tried to utilize it.

*****Please note that this comment is nothing towards the defamation point from country club executive******

As commented by GoltenWaters, I tried contacting Mr.Farooq and it turned out to be helpful. I took my first vacation in Malaysia and it was awesome. Nice accomodation which is in mid-city. A high priority has been given to us since I am a country club member. Mr.Farooq tried to support as much as he can.

But still I say the country club sales team should not trap. Their sales strategy is not good.

A general advice to all: Whoever paid money, please try to use the vacation as it is valuable. I recommend all to talk to Mr.Farooq and sort out the issues.

Without knowing how to swim, we have fallen into the sea. Letz not try to vacate the water which is impossible. Letz learn to swim and utilize our money.

Special thanks to Goltenwaters who posted his positive experience. It's true.

Ha, ha, ha. You've already lost any reputation! But you are building up a new reputation now of threatening people who voice their opinion.

Dear Golenwaters,

Could you please provide your contact number???

We all would like to get some good advice from you. Also we would like to know how u get such a positive treatment when all others are suffering???

Your contact number or email address please???

Thanks for the heads up and the "other side" ..

I think someone from the organization should also post to put the record straight and avoid miscoceptions..

We need to cool down first of all ...............

Dear Readers and Country Club Members,

I wish to make these comments after reading a number of comments on the Internet and other sources against County Club. It is so disappointing to see how people would so carelessly make derogatory remarks about an establishment without blinking and thinking how it would affect it's reputation. I and my entire family (5 persons ) are members of Country Club since 2012 and I can vouch for them, their sincerity and excellence in providing services and keeping their word. In fact, Country Club is one establishment that is flexible to its customers' needs without being rigid. They do their best to see that their customers are treated well, are given the best accommodation and best guidance about the place they choose to go.

In Qatar, for instance, Country Club's Regional Manager, Mr. Farooq Ali, was our guardian angel during our trip to Goa this January 2016. He not only made sure that we have a comfortable stay, he enquired after us from time to time to ensure that we were well taken care of. When we reached Goa, we were treated like VIPs and all our requests were met within minutes by the Goa Country Club management. We were so overwhelmed by their treatment that we realized how lucky we were to be Country Club members.

They have provided us a meaningful discount on the yearly fee by offering us a three-year deal. I have heard from my friends who are members of other clubs and they have had difficulty making use of their membership because their club has black out periods during the holiday season, the only time when they can plan a trip.

County Club is a genuinely caring Club, try it. I would personally urge all readers to form a opinion only after experiencing their services and not on the basis of hearsay.

If you have had a good experience, please mention it here and save this Club from being defamed for no fault on their part.

Sincerely. ..

Guys, Same here. Letz form a whatsapp group. We will meet in a place, clearly write the issues as a complaint and report to Embassy.

Guys I also fall on this trap yesterday 24/04/2016 evening.

After returning home after reading the reviews I decided to cancel the membership.

I called in the office of Country Club 44193030 and asked for the cancellation of the membership but they bluntly denied to cancel and asking me to meet Farooq 26/4/2016 evening between (4 Pm to 8 pm)

i want all of us who have been trapped by Country Club and want their money back should unite together and approach to the concerned authority in Qatar who can help us to get back our hard earned money.

I am also planning to approach their office with mass so that they could not ignore or threat us.

Please Contact me on Whatsapp ASAP 66735191

Interesting. Please keep us updated as to the outcome

Dear All,

The Country Club has initiated Legal actions against Mr Kumaresan Nandha Kumar, who posted defamatory comments against the company claiming damages of 10 Million Dhirams. The company will also be filling a criminal complaint in the courts of Hyderabad India, Dubai, and Qatar.

Team

Country Club

Please spread the news via whatsapp group and Facebook group

Stupidity doesn't protect you from punishment. It is no excuse that counts in court. This threat started 4 years ago and still there are idiots who fall for that obvious trap.

Many are getting into the trap!!!! complaint to indian embassy qatar. country club and people working for are cheapest loser on earth and its really same they call themselves as INDIANS....

lol

Thanks for the warning about the water / drink. Is it laced ? Did the hypnotism work on you..

I want to make a complain regarding this company in police. They cheated me and 2 other friends of mine,.They called me and said I won dinner pass for one restorent in Doha.. I went there office and they tried to do hypnotisam to convince me to give them credit card ... they offer water or drink dont drink that else you will be trapped.

BEWARE.... THE MANE OF THAT GUY IS SAGAR.. IF HE CALLS MAKE RECORDING AND GIVE IT TO POLICE SAME I AM GOING TO DO.....

i think group Petition is the best option.

Why don't the authorities arrest them or shut the place down

worst experience with countryclub the biggest cheater and gamblers never ever come into trap of this cheaters. They invited me to join the club, when I heard about the prices then simply I wanted to leave the place then the basta*d manager "Abdul Rasheed" came in and offer me 5 year package in 5000 QAR and even he issue me written letter that they will issue me passes and membership card within one month and took 1000 QAR advance since then I never heard of this people they never came back to me, I have visited their office twice but nothing happen every time I go there I see new faces and always they ask for money. Just for the sake of few commission these people playing with all of us. BEWARE BEWARE never ever come into trap of country club.

Friends, I am trapped with the country club gambling, paid full money, please advise how to get back my money? Please advise

what u mean cheating ppl,

I got the call twice and I received gifts from them (6 glasses and one Jug), they never asked me to join in any club, and I got the gift voucher which I don't care.

let go there and collect ur gift that's only..

one they are back again in doha near arab bank and cheating people, all the giftvouchers and vacation trips are fake. they have a fake website which does not work at all. beware, they are at new world centre attracting people by giving coupons and calling them to collect gifts. dont ever get into their words and please don't give ur credit/ debit card to them irrespective of whatever offer or promotion they say about vacation trips. Their moto is to rob u and start from 15000QR and bargain and come to 3000. They are big liars and big cheaters

When one hears the word carpet cleanup instrumentation we have a tendency to mechanically consider the large steam cleaners that ar wont to shampoo the rugs, however your regular recent vacuum is a component of your carpet cleanup instrumentation armor.

So you'll totally perceive why having an honest quality vacuum is thus important. Your vacuum is your initial defense against removing dry soil, dirt, and grime. Things like mud, food crumbs, carpet cleaning and pet hair. an honest vacuum can get deep into the carpet and prolong additional of this trash thus it cannot abrade and wear your carpet.

Ask any small-to-medium sized business create coupons owner what his biggest selling challenge is and he'll tell you that it's obtaining customers to his door for the primary time. once he is done that, he'll tell you that his second biggest challenge is obtaining them to return back over and all over again once there are alternative firms out there that sell an equivalent product he will in his own selling space. What makes the customer repeatedly select him over the competition?

WOW.... This is so unbelievable..... people who haven't paid any money are complaining and people who have paid the money and became a member are also complaining.... This is so nonsense. I would request all u who paid the money to just ignore this for some time and visit the gokulam park and utilize the facilities... I know the gym and pool are small but they are providing u those and also steam bath and sauna bath. Try goin for holidays.... I have been a member of this club since 2004..... and I have seen this company growing unlike any other time share company. Initially i was only able to take a holiday in there very limited properties.... however now i have the option to travel abroad as they have there own properties there. Do u guys have any common sense as in to realize that a fraud company would not sustain for 25 years. I would request all of the people to understand what they are talking on an international website. If u cannot afford holidays.... you dont have the right to stop others.

I know the marketing style is different but for your information.... I have been to UK and USA and time share is presented in the same way..... everywhere...... anyways just felt like i could talk about my experience with the club.

AWARENEES CAMPAIGN AGAINST COUNTRY CLUB FRAUD AND CHEATS!! (INDIA, QATAR, ABUDHABI, SAUDI, MUSCAT, BHARAIN & OTHER PLACES)

• I think everybody has heard about Country Club Group ... (India & other places) but hardly few people know a lot about it. That’s why I‘d like to tell you something about Country Club Group…

• Mainly they target the Indian community by approaching innocent peoples and ladies in shopping mall and other places to collect the phone number to call and trap!!

• Encashing the people belief, faith and sentiments by using dirty marketing tricks by offering free gift voucher like a hunter offering food grains to birds to catch them!!

• Lie starts from first call itself saying that you‘d selected out of 10,000 people to collect the free gift voucher! In reality not selected out of 10,000 people!!

• Gift voucher is not free as they said!! We require pay INR 5,000 – 15,000, in their words called as tax!! Not revealing this at any point of time until customer was trapped by them!!

• During one hour gambling time, they never reveal their company terms and conditions openly , everything was kept under suspicious!! Also not giving any chance to customer to think for a day, neither allow customer to check their low grade company profile!! , this is very important tactful point handled very carefully by trained staff!!

• All false promise made by staff during one hour gambling time not fulfilling at point of time , none of the staff not willing to provide their business card to any of the customer and not revealing the truth ! Trying to cheat as many people as possible!!

• Trying to persuade the customer that life time membership special offer valid for only today by making some gimmick of discount offer!! This is really bullish!!!!

• Country club group (INDIA, QATAR, DUBAI, ABU DHABI, OMAN & OTHER PLACES) cheated plenty of people!! JUST TYPE COUNTRY CLUB INDIA FRAUD & CHEATS IN GOOGLE!!!

• Worst thing is that in case due to some reason we don’t want to continue as a Country club member , MONEY IS NON REFUNDABLE !!!! What a wonderful policy!!!! This thing they never reveal to customer during membership enrolling time!!!

• In case we negotiated for QR 15,000 (INR 225,000 ) later will receive bill for QR 20,000 (INR 300,000 )

• Lots of complaint registered in consumer court in India and many other places, no action on them, continue to cheat innocent people leading dirty lavish life!! What a shameless personality!! Really world most powerful fraud and cheating company is Country Club India Group!!

• Most of the victims not willing to lodge police complaint or willing to go court , the reason that time, further money loss in legal process will take very long time not less than 10 – 15 years to get a verdict , torture ect, Country Club India Group taking full advantage of this situation by search and continue to cheat new customers!!

• At least best way that all victim unite together come on the road to protest and register single police complaint to fight against this fraud & cheating company

• Join us the awareness campaign to create awareness in as many people as we know

thanks to my almighty allah

No one should trap in the presentation provided by Country Club India and should not pay money immediately by your credit card or debit card on the spot!!

You will be taken to a room with laud music which will distract the person from his/her calculation.

Country club doesn’t have tie up with any good hotels outside India.

Country Club facilities in Qatar is not good.

Once they swipe your credit card then they will not refund money if you're not satisfied with their service, so be careful before you give your credit card or debit card to them.

Arisen, what is the fraud that they are doing? Could you care to explain?

Vacation Holidays Egypt and now country club India, the regulatory authority which takes care of the Travel Industry in Qatar is the Ministry of aviation, Donno why they are not doing anything to stop this fraud !!!

Why don't you all Indian QLers gather together and make one single report to the Police. There might be other Indians who are not on QL and might be fooled by this Country Club. You would do a great service to your fellow countrymen and Qatar. It's just a thought.

which face are you talking about. never heard of anyone who took up their offer and travelled to those places being denied stay in those hotels.

Please dont pay money immediately after the presentation then you will see the real face.........Cheaters.

We can complain to Police or Consumer court in Qatar.

They are not cheating anyone. Why don't you guys utilize the trip?

Any of you complaint about Country Club to police or consumer court in qatar? and got the money back from country club?

2222

I filled a similar form in Safari Mall and they are not stopping calling me...EVERY DAY !!! "Sir come and collect your gift Voucher"

Its strange that so many people here on QL have also became victims. What happened to common sense and doing a little search on internet about scams and frauds. Who calls u for a free voucher and then asks to pay to get it.

they had called me near arab round about .... and thank god i read an article about them on internet ... later i got 2 more calls from them and i refused them

Qatar is a very nice country with very little crime rate.Now new expat robbers and cheats seem to invade,spread and start their jobs only to bring shame on the rest.

yes. it's a real trap. they promise to give travel vouchers... but no use of it too....

did anyone of you get back the money? is it a real trap...please let us know

I also trapped for them .. can we get together and do something?

pls complain to the police.. REPORT TO THE DAILY NEWS PAPERS.. SEND MAILS TO ALL OF YOUR FREINDS AND TELL THEM TO FORWARD.

IF YOU GO TO THEIR OFFICE WITH YOUR GANGA OF FREINDS.. MAKE NOICE IN THE RECEIPTION..ONLY STAY IN THE RECEIPTION AND ASK TO GIVE BACK THE MONEY... KEEP ON SHOUTING, SURE THEY WILL PAY IMMEDIATELY.. PLS ALSO SEND MAILS TO ALL REGARDING THE CHEATING PEOPLE.. and COMPLAIN TO THE POLICE DEPT.

if you join with country club, vacation club, you loose your money

No.1 cheaters..... Pls we have to fight otherwise many people will be trapped...

Once upon a time Qatar was very safe place now many fraud people are coming here in different style beware and do not promise or join such promotions unless otherwise if you are certenly know them. BEWARE in malls. If any cases found like this. please complain to the Consumer Protection Dept. Tel : 44945550..

In a country that has a lot of potential to attract people towards the travelling/tourism industry - one requires qualified, determined human resourcing of a certain standard and simple marketing strategies to manage an organisation that caters to the above. Unfortunately, the Qatar branch of Country Club clearly suffers in all aspects.

Happened to come across their advertisement and following a phone call - the admin/marketing members started playing pranks on the phone. Still being patient enough to give another chance, visited their branch near the bank street. The office was filled with immature, unseasoned staff absolutely unaware of how to present themsleves and market their services. Even communicating in english was a problem. This clearly shows symptoms of an organisation that employes unqualified, unmotivated staff that are definitely underpaid;survives on one-time customer fees and is not dedicated to serve public effectively. This speaks of how the top level management also views this industry.

Oh yes, received the same call elaborating on the 'free gift voucher' and decided not to even venture into their office again for any presentation whatsoever. If scrutinised on the web, the maximum number of negative reviews about an organisation related to travel/tourism is for 'Country Club'. The number of people dissatisfied and angry are innumerous and growing.

Mr. Rajeev Reddy & Sons need to ramp up their brains and do a serious brainstorming before their organisation becomes short of being an actual 'Counttrry' Club.

Thanks & Regards

Thanks for alerting us. I have been approached by them several times but I was avoiding. Now I will avoid them permanently.

Vacation International is doing the same too...they are posting rep in some department/supermarket stores and with a few questions you will be chosen to be a winner with an offer of a free hotel accommodation for one week valid for eighteen months in Sharm AL Sheikh in Egypt...first they will ask you where you like to spend the vacation and regardless of country you choose with, you will end up getting the Sharm Al Sheikh offer...they will ask you to report to their office in Hamad Medical HR Training Center and will start to convince you about fixed payment this and that..

... in the New World Center -- Souq Nabina -- once I was selected for this promotion to have holiday in Egypt at the famous Sharm AL Shaikh resorts.

they held an event at a building near the Hamad Medical HR Dept , Traing Center. And gave us vourcher.

but they did nto ask us any credit card or any details

is the same racket in INDIA too ??

TFS

Yes they are 100% fraud and cheater and you should be 110 % foool if you trapped in.

i got the call from them, that i won 25000 INR and i should visit them, but my husband is clever enough , he says its all Bull Sh*t....and now i admire his judgement.....

and one more thing, they never call back to give me my pirize money or ask why i never showed up , so it also makes whole thing seems real....that they r fake

It is better complain to the police and stop these cheaters...

i already paid and became a member. What to do now?? Can we complain to police?

nothing in this world comes for free but parent's love.

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for alerting us.

I got a similar call yesterday but refused to attend due to some other engagements. I did suspected something fishy from the beginning.
