Club Ultima's Crown Regency Certificate

Somebody supposedly from Club Ultima called me up and informed me that I won a 4days 3 nights hotel accomodation at any Crown Regency Hotel whether local or international. They said that i need not bring any money or credit card when i come to claim it only that i bring my husband with me and that we stay for a 90 minute presentation on their other hotels.

Initially, i was quite elated(thinking we will be able to experience already the 1st edge coaster in the Philippines) but when they said that i need to bring my husband with me and that we had to listen to a 90 minute presentation, what the heck? It's just another marketing scam just like the one where i supposedly won a free trip to Boracay only that i need to do the same claiming procedure as described above.


Can you just give the certificates without any fuss? Maybe you'll get business that way if having redeemed the certificates we are satisfied. You're just giving club ultima a bad name with this supposedly "great" promo.

Heres a more detailed description of the scam experienced by another blogger.

  1. Its a scam. The supposedly "Gift" they were offering is not actually free at all. You have to pay P5000 when you actually claim it. Club Ultima is the Ultimate LOSER!

  2. They just called me today & said the same things to me. But still I have second thoughts for I dont have time to listen in their presentation. If its true, then its their loss! Its bad marketing for Club Ultima.

  4. my kuya got his gc. the gc states that, 5k shall be deposited and upon check out, it will be refunded. is this true? is it ok to avail the free gc and would not become a member?

  5. Hi charmaine grace! I'm not sure. Maybe it will be refunded. I never went to claim my GC upon knowing that i needed to attend a presentation seminar.

  7. Best to verify with the hotel if the gc is valid. I just came from the presentation. They were really pushing me to make a down for the membership but i didnt. Im going to email the hotel later along with a pic of the gc given to me. I advise u do the same. Instead of going there only to find out its not real

  12. I need help, do you have info were can i file a complaint from those "bastos agents" from club ultima?? Grabe this agent assigned from duty free paranaque needs to be suspended. I just informed them that "no thanks, they can give the offer to others." I got really pissed off that he never stops and still calling me in the middle of my work. Then when i told him to stop calling me, he yeld and saying bad words to me. I was so shocked to his behavior. He's a freak. Hope this agent will be suspended to club ultima. He dont deserve to be there. This is the number he is using 9998854368

  15. Refundable po yun nagamit namen i think 2 years ago sa cebu. Sulit naman kasi 3k lang ata pero pag nag stay ka sa hotel ng 3n 2d mahal. Swear to god nagamit namen. Tinawagan.ulet kame this year pinuntahan ulet namen. Kasi alam namen na refundable. Pero d kame nag member ha. We just attended para sa gc. Sabi nila once lang daw.makakakuha ng gc. Pero twice kame baka d na record sa system nila.

  17. My boyfie received the same call the other day and today is the schedule of the presentation. We're planning to go. I have a hunch that it's MLM strategy. After reading all these I'm now hesitant to go. I'm thinking it would just be a waste of time and gas. Did you pay 5k to claim the GC? Oh my golay.

  19. I received a call from ultima and say we are entitled to receive 3days and 2 nights accomodation at crown regency hotel. I wonder if this is true.
