More TVI Express member lies

If you've searched through Google about TVI Express, you'd probably came across increasemymonthlyincome.com, which is a website where two people recruit for their downline and publish cheerleading blog posts about TVI Express success. They even recently published a self-congratulatory note that one of them made it out of the Express board and got $10000 in her eWallet. So what sort of lies have they been publishing? Let's pick a page and find out.

First two paragraphs really says nothing important.

Then things only got worse...


In a few weeks corporate will be moved into a brand new facility in London. I can not wait to see what will be coming down the line as so far the new upgrades to the members site have greatly increased the speed of which the site loads in a browser.

This blogpost was dated October 2009. This is AFTER TVI Express vacated their 55 Bryanston St. (March Arch Tower)  address in London, with NO NEW ADDRESS published. So she's excited about an non-existent address, which later turned out to be in Uxbridge, 15 miles from downtown London.

And she's excited that the server seems to have been upgraded. Nothing about the business itself, eh? That comes later.


There are many benefits when you get a TVI Express business. Some of the key ones are that to join there is only a one time fee. Most other direct selling businesses have an autoship or some other program that you have to make a purchase every month to stay active or get commissions on sales volume or downline activity. With this business model there is just one fee and that is it.

You also get a free professional with all the bells and whistles members site that includes a state of the art back office. I am not kidding when I say that when I first looked at my back office it was the best one that I have ever had with any company.

Most people get excited when they discover that they also get a six day seven nite stay at a five star hotel and a air fare one way travel voucher. These do have to be used with in one years time of your join date and there are some other minor stipulations but how great is that! Please do not promote your business as getting a free hotel stay or plane ticket as this is not a reason why people should be joining TVI Express in the first place. Be honest, excited, and truthful then you will do just fine.

The back office gives you all kinds of discount travel offers with the ability to custom design your dream travel vacation. Everything works great and you can expect to discover many discounts when you are logged into your members site.

So the benefits of joining TVI Express are, according to this website:



*  One-time fee, no recurring auto-buy
*  State-of-the-art back office website
*  7-day 6-night vacation at 5-star hotel and one-way ticket (NOT the reason to join)
*  Back office offers all sorts of travel discounts and trip planning



Hey, backoffice was counted twice. So, consolidate:

1) One-time fee only, no recurring fees
2) Backoffice with trip planning and quoting, plenty of travel discounts
3) 7-day 6-night vacation at 5-star hotel and one-way ticket (but don't use this as reason to join)



But what does TVI Express sell? What are you networking for? NEVER EXPLAINED! How is this a business with no product or service? Hello!?!?!



Was the fact that the backoffice was just private-labeled version of Travelocity.com mentioned? No! So no matter how impressive it is, it is worth exactly ZERO! She's impressed by a FREE website!



And that "free" vacation? Turns out it was impossible to redeem until 8 months later (June 2010), AND costs additional $150 USD. And 5-star hotel? It's really 3-5 star. AND only hotels near India are available. So her claims all turned out to be LIES.



None of the benefits turned out to be what they really are. There is no product to sell. So where does the money come from?  From the new members recruited, of course. 


So what sort of business is this, other than a scam?
