Tarun Trikha's latest "15 points": more bull****?

IncreaseMyMonthlyIncome published "15 points" relayed through an upline, allegedly from "owner and CEO" Tarun Trikha. Here's my commentary on the 15 points.

1. The 7 night free vacation is available on the website now. From my understanding e-wallet funds can be used to pay the taxes. You have until Dec 31st to book your trip and have one year from booking to use it.

Comment: This is like, fourth or fifth time they say it's available?

2. 93% of the people in the survey regarding do you want a free 3 night 4 day business vacation with breakfast available in place of the 7 night at over 95% hotels said Yes! So they are also going to make that available.

Comment: and this is news? They already announced this a while back.

3. They are working on a better payment system and TVI signed a contract with a True Cash, a Canadian co. to provide Visa debit cards to load your money onto so it is more easily accessible. They have already purchased 100,000 debit cards that will be available in approx 5-6 weeks.

Comment: Search of Google shows no such company called "True Cash" anywhere. In fact, TrueCash.com is a PORN site.

4. Club TVI is a TVI co. that will be setup as a timeshare. They are currently buying hotels in Asia and Europe for Club TVI.

Comment: They lie about "tie up" with RCI before. And you would actually BELIEVE they are buying up hotels for timeshare? Muhahaha.

5. We are all invited to attend the next Convention In Jakarta, Indonesia in Sept. You can use your free travel voucher to stay for free.

Comment: Sure, that $5000 you can't spend otherwise. Psssssttttt.

6. A Master mind team will be formed in the U.S. by Sept 25th to be a go between for Distributors and TVI mgt. They will also be responsible for distributor training, seminars, qtrly meetings with mgt and bi-annual meetings with mgt.

Comment: you mean the uplines aren't already doing that? Bull****.

7. TVI will try to do a better job of keeping everyone informed before they have to take down the website for maintenance. Typically the website has been under attack and they have had a way to inform us ahead of time.

Comment: under attack by critics, or hackers? There's nothing on the website worth hacking. You can't get any travel on it, and memberships are worth nothing. Why would any one want to hack TVIExpress.com?

8. TVI is opening a new Support Center in Asia by the end of Sept manned by 52 more support personnel. Their goal will be to answer the phone within 2 minutes and to answer support tickets within 72 hours.

Comment: last one was promised in July 2009, and did not open until April 2010. How many months do you think this one will take?

9. TVI is currently working with the same company that provides travel services to Expedia and Travelocity to provide their travel services. They are also searching for more channel partners to get better discounts on travel. They are also working on adding commission payouts to distributors for anyone on their team that travels.

Comment: Sure, still claiming Travelocity connection. Legitimacy by "association" again.

10. The U.S is currently the 3rd largest market for TVI. India is first and S. Korea is second.

Comment: Completely irrelevant.

11. They are currently having Grimes and Reese, a law firm out of Utah, work on getting TVI compliant in the U.S.

Comment: And where were they when the TVI Express members got served in Atlanta Georgia?

12. Presidential Power pool payouts will be available in Sept.

13. Residual payouts are to remain from the 10th to the 15th of the month timeframe.

14. The next office to open will be in Greece.

Comment: Next to Cyprus, I see.

15. Tarun talked about stabilizing the company for the long term, he feels he has the right management team in Place, and has a long vision for making TVI the world leader in travel and appreciates all the distributors in the U.S. that are working to make that a reality!!!

Comment: the only way to "stabilize" a scam is to shut it down completely.
