Refusal to call back. Website not functional in getting to talk to anyone. I wanted to find out whether we could add our 3 children with all the full package we have for two of us.

Good website to follow. I was expecting an analysis of the cost of added extras. It would have encouraged one to purchase if clear it wasn't straying too much over budget. I wanted to find out whether we could add our 3 children with all the full package we have for two of us.

LIES
August 28, 2023

Malik one of your advisors sold me a 7 nights in one of your hotels, with the promise that I can use it within 3 years and that it is for 2 adults and 2 children with breakfast and dinner included, but when I received the email it shows that is only valid for 1 year, for only 2 adults and just one meal
I am externally disappointed with this and will approach the relevant authorities here in Dubai this Monday coming

The First Group a assuré mon transport depuis mon hôtel jusqu'à son siège. L'accueil a été chaleureux. The First Group a présenté le projet immobilier avec un taux d'intérêt beaucoup plus avantageux. Alors j'ai signé le contrat afin de bénéficier d'un rendez-vous d'affaires dont j'ai demandé le report sur un an, à partir du mardi, 8 Août 2023 au 8 Août 2024 inclus à Dubaï.

Bought my Dubai Lifestyle Experience months ago and now want to redeem and activate as we are planning on going on holidays in Dubai soon. I have since done it online, written to the email on the Certificate Number but got no response. To make matter worse, there is no contact number to make phone calls. This is really terrible and makes my family upset and angry about the whole package.
We need to get our trip arranged and finalised.
Why is no one responding to the emails?
This is horrible.
If I don't hear anything I will be making a lot of noise about this.
I hope it is not a scam because I will be very vocal about it.

We tried booking farther out, and were limited to mid-October. So i would suggest being able to submit preferred travel dates further out than just 3 months.

The experience was good, the presenter warm yet gave us feeling of of indifference to service offer. Humble recommendation for the group is to do a bit of background check on potential customers before offering potential products.
