If you have read my previous post about the deal I bought from Metrodeal a year back I believe, you'd know how much of a hassle it was for me. Apparently, I am not the only one who has suffered from their hands! :S So I am making a post again just to say again not to buy deals / vouchers which involve Indochina Strings.
Truth be told, I was tempted to buy a voucher again from Indochina Strings via Metrodeal. Come on! They have fantastic partners: Canyon Cove, Misibis Bay, Hotel St. Ellis, just to name a few. But trust me, do not succumb to the temptation. I did not. I was recently really dying to buy vouchers for their Canyon Cove deal, also in Metrodeal. It was a good thing I did not because from what I've read on the internet and in a comment here in my blog. It was also a headache. Saving money by buying deals is awesome. Sometimes though it is better to shell out a bit more money and have things hassle-free. You can also travel DIY style as I often do. (Perhaps that's what I am going to do, time-permitting, to get to Canyon Cove!) If you wish for some help with make-your-own budget trip, post a comment! I'll help you up. Just treat me with a box of Pizza Hut or Krispy Kreme! :P
If, however, you want to directly contact the vendor / partner of Indochina Strings, prepare to be disappointed. I have already tried it but it does not simply work. I respect that there are agreements between Indochina and their partners but it's just sad. To give you an example, here's a screenshot of the letter I have received from Hotel St. Ellis more than a year ago when I asked them if I could just directly pay them the amount that Indochina was offering at that time in Metrodeal. Hotel St. Ellis declined much to my disappointment. I really really REALLY wanted to stay there and go on a Misibis Day tour! Until now, I have not fulfilled that wish. :( Help, Misibis Bay? Are you hearing me? T_T
I do not know anymore how to explain to them that Indochina Strings just suck.
That being said. STAY AWAY FROM INDOCHINA STRINGS VOUCHER DEALS YOU SEE IN METRODEAL!!!

The fact you're insisting to be book on Feb.1-2, 2014 since you are attending a wedding we did out part to accommodate you, since the hotel said that they are full on that weekend due to Chinese New Year, I ask for their consideration, I emailed you dec. 6 but you don't reply to us, we send the confirmation because it's the last room for that date and we cannot block the date in days and again because you are insisting to be book only on Feb.1-2, 2014. See I emailed last Dec. 6 but no reply in your end, for 3 days. It seems you are not always online and checking your email. This has been confirmed since Dec. 9, 2013. Why only now? I think if you will be granted by the hotel for rebooking, I will make sure that you will email us first for your desired date, that you will confirm that date before we send confirmation.
Also, please check your email once in a while especially if you are trying to book with us because we only communicate through email. I will forward our email thread to Ms. Rebecca of lee Boutique and they will be the one to investigate on this matter. It's not my discretion, it's the hotel. please do your part as well since we are the one helping you to be book at lee boutique hotel.
