More YTB Complaints from The BBB
YTB Travel News:(Press Release) More YTB Travel Complaints
A Fallbrook, Calif., woman complained to the BBB that after a day-long seminar, she purchased a Web site from YTB Travel for $499 in order to become an online travel agent. She said she thought this would be a good way to make money from home and obtain travel discounts for personal travel. She said that she needed to book $1,200 a month through her Web site in order to be eligible for personal discounts, but everyone that she told about her site said that they “did some research and found that they could book travel more cheaply elsewhere.” She also said that “IATA(International Air Transport Association Network) rescinded their affiliation with YTB Travel and that was the main way for us to obtain travel discounts.” The BBB assisted her in obtaining a refund.
When contacted by the BBB, a representative of the IATAN confirmed that their relationship with YTB Travel was severed due to “failure to maintain standards of accreditation.” In an official statement IATAN indicated that YTB Travel was terminated for “violating the standards which provide that ‘IATA numeric codes shall not be lent, subcontracted, or hired to a third party.’" Furthermore, IATAN “found that the Referring Travel Agents recruited by YTB Travel -- and to whom YTB Travel gave credentials which contained the IATA numeric code -- were "third parties" over whom YTB Travel had no control.” YTB Travel disputed IATANS actions, but upon review the actions were upheld.
For the first quarter of 2008, only 12.5% of YTB Travel’s net revenue was derived from online travel sale commissions, while almost 80% came from the recruitment of people joining its online travel business. Based on the number of RTAs listed in these filings, the average amount made by each RTA through the sale of travel through their Web site for the first quarter was $27.75; on pace for a yearly income of $111, according to filings with the Security and Exchange Commission.
J. Kim Sorensen is the president of YTB Travel, J. Scott Tomer is the CEO and J. Lloyd Tomer is the chairman of the board, according to the company’s Web site.

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH:
Another layer of trouble has landed on Wood River-based travel company YTB International, this one in the form of a class-action lawsuit filed Friday in East St. Louis.
Attorneys representing two agents and sales reps for the company say it is an "illegal pyramid scheme" and "employs an illegal chain referral sales technique" in violation of Illinois law. They are seeking $100 million in damages for the at least 140,000 agents who have joined YTB Travel.
In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the company said it "intends to vigorously defend the case."
The suit's charges echo those in a suit filed last week by California Attorney General Jerry Brown, who called the company a "gigantic pyramid scheme" in which 140,000 "referring travel agents" pay $450 up front and $50 a month to sell travel but rarely earn any money on commissions. Meanwhile, sales reps — including many of those travel agents — receive commissions and bonuses to sign up more agents.
"These are all different components of the same pyramid scheme," said Christian Montroy, the East St. Louis attorney who filed the suit.
The Illinois attorney general also is investigating YTB Travel, and the local chapter of the Better Business Bureau(BBB) slapped YTB Travel with a negative report last week.
Also on Monday, YTB Travel disclosed in an SEC filing that its application for listing on the American Stock Exchange was withdrawn Friday. The company's stock is currently traded on the Over The Counter bulletin board and it has been trying to get on a more prestigious exchange.
The company didn't say why it withdrew its application to AMEX and didn't respond to questions Monday.
However, the only thing that is different from that morton salt box and YTB Travel is the little girl on the box has an umbrella and YTB Travel doesn't.

Ca. Atty. Gen. Brown Sues To Topple Online Pyramid Scheme
LOS ANGELES--California Attorney General Edmund G. Brown Jr. today sued YourTravelBiz.com for operating a gigantic pyramid scheme that recruited tens of thousands of members with deceptive claims that members could earn huge sums of money through its online travel agencies.
“YourTravelBiz.com operates a gigantic pyramid scheme that is immensely profitable to a few individuals on top and a complete rip-off for most everyone else,” Attorney General Brown said. “Today’s lawsuit seeks to shut down the company’s unlawful operation before more people are exploited by the scam.”
YourTravelBiz.com and its affiliates operate an illegal pyramid scheme that only benefits members if and when they find enough new members to join the scam. Once enrolled, members who join the pyramid scheme earn compensation for each new person they enlist, regardless of whether they sell any travel. The company lures new members by offering huge income opportunities through online travel agencies yet the typical person actually makes nothing selling travel.
According to company records there were over 200,000 members in 2007 who typically pay more than $1,000 per year--$449.95 to set up an “online travel agency” with a monthly fee of $49.95. In 2007, only 38 percent of the company’s members made any travel commissions. For the minority of members who made any travel commission in 2007, the median income was $39.00--less than one month’s cost to keep the Website. There are at least 139,000 of the company’s travel Websites, all virtually identical, on the Internet.
YourTravelBiz’s extensive marketing materials include videos of people driving Porsche and other luxury cars, holding ten-thousand dollar checks, and claiming to be raking in millions of dollars in profits. The company advertises through its Website http://www.ytb.com, and at conventions, workshops and nationwide sales meetings which have been held in California locations such as Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Francisco and San Diego.
Brown charges the company, its affiliates, and the company’s founders J. Lloyd Tomer, J. Scott Tomer, J. Kim Sorensen and Andrew Cauthen with operating an “endless chain scheme,” an unlawful pyramid in which a person pays money for the chance to receive money by recruiting new members to join the pyramid. Brown also charges the company with unfair business practices and false advertising practices including:
* Deceptive claims that members can earn millions of dollars with the company
* Operating without filing legally mandated documents with the attorney general and the Department of Corporations
* Selling an illegal travel discount program
Under California’s unfair business practices statute, the company is liable for $2,500 per violation of law. Attorney General Brown is suing YourTravelBiz.com to get a court order that:
* Bars the company from making false or misleading statements
* Assesses a civil penalty of at least $15,000,000 and at least $10,000,000 in restitution for Californians who were ripped off by the company.
From August 6 through 10, thousands of members are preparing to travel to St. Louis for a national convention to learn new techniques to recruit more victims into the illegal pyramid scheme. Last year at least 10,000 people attended a similar national conference. For more details on the company’s plan to perpetuate its scheme visit:
http://www.yourtravelbiz.com/bizRep/Biz ... -18-08.htm
For more information on pyramid schemes visit:
http://ag.ca.gov/consumers/general/pyramid_schemes.php
Any consumers who believe they have been bilked by YTB Travel should send a written complaint with copies of any supporting documentation to:
Office of the Attorney General
Public Inquiry Unit, P.O. Box 944255
Sacramento, CA 94244-2550
Or through an on-line complaint form:
http://ag.ca.gov/contact/complaint_form.php?cmplt=CL.
Today’s lawsuit against YourTravelBiz.com, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court today, is attached. The lawsuit also names affiliates which include YTB Travel Network, Inc., YTB Travel Network of Illinois,Inc., as well as the company’s founders J. Lloyd Tomer, J. Scott Tomer, J. Kim Sorensen and Andrew Cauthen.

YTB Travel News- "your very own " pyramid scheme
YTB Travel News(PRESS Release July 26, 2008)
YTB Travel is a so-called multi-level-marketing scheme that tries to sell you "your very own travel agency". YTB Travel claim that this will (1.) save you a lot of money when booking travel, (2.) make you money when others book travel through you, and (3.) make you money when you pull others into the YTB Travel mouse trap.
It will take a while before you find out that the YTB Travel privilege will cost you $500 and that's just for beginners, plus an additional $150 alone with a 7 hour day of "so called" YTB Travel training( That's if YTB Travel training takes place in your area) and then $50 each month for the maintenance of your YTB Travel website.
It will take you even longer to find out that the whole YTB Travel scheme really doesn't work as advertised.
YTB Travel is a publicly traded company, meaning that there are financial statements that will support the above statement that the YTB Travel scheme really doesn't work (even though YTB Travel is over 12 months behind on reporting and is constantly redeclaring their reports).
To make this long story short:
* YTB Travel continues to lose more and more money year after year (However,the principles are making millions of dollars year after year).
* The average YTB Travel agent pays more than three times in monthly fees as they are earning in commissions.
* YTB Travel makes twice as much from "selling travel agencies" then from their "CORE PRODUCT", which is TRAVEL.
Let's take a closer look at my last key point: 65% of YTB Travel comes from building the pyramid, proving that it's a true ILLEGAL PYRAMID SCHEME. YTB Travel has been reported to the SEC and within the next 6 to 12 months there will be decision rendered.
Moreover, to become involved with the YTB Travel pyramid scheme you are allowing YTB Travel to offer you an affiliate position with travelocity. However, if you don't believe that all of this is true just go to the Travelocity site directly, you will see that they the exact same site and that site is free.

YTB Travel News- YTB Travel in serious trouble
We at Traverus Travel certainly do sympathize with the emotional roller coaster YTB Travel reps will surely experience after receiving this crushing announcement, but each YTB Travel Rep must now face a difficult reality that business is business and they must look out for their livelihood; Moreover, each and every YTB Travel leader should soon be recognizing that no matter how much they love or believe in YTB Travel, it’s in serious trouble and YTB Travel will likely see 70% or more of their active RTA base leave the company and their organization over the next 4 to 8 weeks as news of IATA’s termination of YTB Travel spreads. Those YTB Travel leaders will be forced to quickly make one of the following choices:
1. YTB Travel Reps can brace themselves for the fast approaching storm, if that is at all possible and try to create a plan to rebuild ¾’s of the organization that will take to the high grounds over the next few months or
2. Which should be the SMARTEST YTB Travel leader's decision catch that lifeline and Take a position with Traverus Travel, which represents the only major Travel Company left in the Network Marketing field today and then propel that organization that he or she are leading over to one of the strongest Traverus Travel company's team and he or she will receive a preferred position in Traverus Travel, which by the way is the #1 income earning company out there at this time, Moreover, It would be like holding that winning the lottery ticket in today's drawing. A SMART YTB Travel Leader would recognize that he or she can either lead their team to a stronger company in Travel Travel now, or watch his or her YTB Travel team make the SMART choice and leave on their own. These YTB Travel leaders know that it’s not a question of if; it’s a question of how soon this will happen.
Traverus Travel has already had several YTB Travel reps that were in Director Levels make the move within the last 24 hours and these number will be in the thousands over the next 60 days and since Traverus Travel doesn't use a six up compensation model which an ex YTB Travel Rep should benefit greatly by acting now, since future reps will soon be positioned underneath you!

YTB TRAVEL NEWS: Troubles in Baltimore
Here's more YTB Travel News: YTB Travel back in trouble now in Baltimore. News at eleven reports that a group of 30 people planned to take a trip to celebrate Mother's Day. This group saved up every penny that they could to pay for this trip package which included airfare and hotel from Baltimore to Las Vegas, now just imagine this group arriving at the airport to get their airline tickets and being told that they had none. Moreover, calling the hotel in Las Vegas only to be told that the reservations had been canceled since April.
Now I'm not saying that this all YTB Travel's fault however, they did when asked about the agent quickly dissociated themselves from the problem by say that this wasn't the first time they have had problems with this agent and that the agent had been terminated and announced the cancellation of her YTB Travel membership.. Nevertheless, YTB Travel makes the claim that they are not a card mill and have the best trained agents in the business But, as I see it the system failed miserably. If the owners of YTB Travel knew of this problem before hand why didn't they remove this agent much sooner or why wasn't this agent trained better on how to book travel?
But, after I was prepared to come to a close of this report when this one thing kept coming across my mind: This agent was a RTA(referring Travel Agent) right, which means that the agent wasn't able to book Travel only refer Travel which means that they would have to call in to the home office and have a Certified Travel Agent to make the booking. Which makes it hard for me to believe that YTB Travel had no knowledge that this trip had been booked.

Now I'm not saying that this all YTB Travel's fault however, they did when asked about the agent quickly dissociated themselves from the problem by say that this wasn't the first time they have had problems with this agent and that the agent had been terminated and announced the cancellation of her YTB Travel membership.. Nevertheless, YTB Travel makes the claim that they are not a card mill and have the best trained agents in the business But, as I see it the system failed miserably. If the owners of YTB Travel knew of this problem before hand why didn't they remove this agent much sooner or why wasn't this agent trained better on how to book travel?
But, after I was prepared to come to a close of this report when this one thing kept coming across my mind: This agent was a RTA(referring Travel Agent) right, which means that the agent wasn't able to book Travel only refer Travel which means that they would have to call in to the home office and have a Certified Travel Agent to make the booking. Which makes it hard for me to believe that YTB Travel had no knowledge that this trip had been booked.
