Dear WISPAPALOOZA Invitees,
It has come to my attention this morning that a company called Convention Housing Planners Corp. has called some WISPAPALOOZA vendors and attendees in an attempt to solicit hotel bookings. This company is NOT affiliated in any way with WISPA or the South Point Hotel, regardless of what the person calling might represent or suggest. This company CAN NOT offer you a rate lower than WISPA's contracted rate. We have negotiated the lowest available, all-inclusive rate with the Hotel. Our rate includes Internet and resort fees and the rates advertised by third parties do not (something third parties like Convention Housing Planners Corp. do not disclose to you when they disclose their rates). To make your room reservations for WISPAPALOOZA please use the following link: https://gc.synxis.com/rez.aspx?Hotel=11548 <https://gc.synxis.com/rez.aspx?Hotel=11548&Chain=6903&arrive=10/10/2014&dep art=10/11/2014&adult=1&child=0&group=WISPA14> &Chain=6903&arrive=10/10/2014&depart=10/11/2014&adult=1&child=0&group=WISPA1 4 Call South Point Hotel reservations directly at 702-796-7111 or 866-791-7626 and reference the code WISPA14 or mention WISPAPALOOZA. Reservations made through any other source than the link above or South Point Hotel's reservations line are at your own risk. If you are contacted by another housing company trying to sell hotel rooms, please notify me right away by e-mail or by phone at 866-317-2851 ext. 102 or 260-622-5775. If you have any questions about your reservation or want to confirm it, please call the Hotel's reservations line or contact me for further assistance. I have also notified the hotel of this and they have sent this message for me to share with you: SOLICIATATION BY OUTSIDE HOUSING/TRAVEL COMPANIES BUYER BEWARE! Please be vigilant if dealing with any companies or services other than WISPA or South Point Hotel that imply or claim an affiliation with the WISPA Convention. We have been made aware of other housing companies (Convention Housing Planners Corp. - Queens, NY) that may be aggressively pursuing you, or your company, to book your guest rooms through their company at supposedly significant discounts. Unfortunately, some past attendees and exhibitors have fallen prey to these companies and have either: lost their significant deposits; been relocated with little or no warning; have not had the guest rooms they thought they had booked; or have not received reservations at the hotel they had thought were confirmed. This has caused great hardships and significant financial loss to these companies and individuals. Reservations made through an agency other than WISPA OR SOUTH POINT ROOM RESERVAIONS will be at your own risk. If you are contacted by another housing company trying to sell hotel rooms, please notify Show Management, Trina Coffey at 866-317-2851 ext. 102 or 260-622-5775.
