| There's a small company operating in Turkey called Icmeler Online and they have had both bad reports and some quite good ones. What is underhand about them though is that they are getting their friends or business partners to write up good reports about them on all the major review sites by offering them incentives.
They are promising people a fiver off or a free boat trip if they write 3 reviews on different internet sites. This sort of thing is very sad as we as holidaymakers like to know the truth about the holidays we plan booking and when this company is offereing incentives to friends or holidaymakers to write up good reviews on them it smacks of underhandness and dishonesty.
I know the company has had complaints in the past and their bookings are down so maybe they are using drastic measures to try and get bookings but it's very unfair to ask people to write good reports for rewards just so that unsuspecting people will consider booking through them not knowing they have had complaints from holidaymakers in the past.

| You have been going round all the holiday sites with this same story and posting under different guises,but the words are still the same.
You have had your wrists slapped on every site and the comments deleted for their content.
Not one site has continued with your story.
This is the offer to members of ICR.
Please note the highlighted red lettering.

| They are asking there cutomers who have used them to write a review good or bad, what is wrong with that. They are just trying to advertise there business, and giving there customers an incentive. It's good business sense to me.

| I wrote a review for this company, but I am NOT a friend or a business partner, purely a customer, but what I wrote WAS an honest review.
I used ICR for the first time last September, and I am using them again this year, because of one reason. The service was excellent.

I am using them for my holiday in june,and from what i gather your slanderous views can do a company a lot of harm.
luckily enough i dont take much attention to posts like these
If i am not happy with the service the company will sure as dammit know about it,and likewise the other way around
Are you sure you are not working for a rival company?,and trying on some underhand tactics.
Just fyi also,just because you post on the internet doesnt mean you are safe from prosecution for slander
