Ripped Off by 1800SkyRide
Complaint
Nat M.
Country: United States
1800SkyRide is a telemarketing fraud. They sell trips and sporting events that do not exist. The company operates under different names:
1800Skyride
Adventure Skydiving Center
Adventure Sports
Luxergy
IGO Vincent
Spagoda
Tandora
Granter Media
Thrill Planet
Soaring Sports
Hot Air Balloon Team
The address of the company:
2593 Kennesaw Due West Rd Ste 300
Kennesaw, Ga 30144
They refuse to give refunds to customers, there are hundreds of unresolved complaints with BBB. Stay away from this company. When a customer wants a refund because most of the time they were sold something that did not exist or was given false information on locations, they refuse to give it and offer a different activity which again is either a fraud or hundreds of miles away from the client.
I've launched complaints with BBB, FTC, and The Attorney General. If you are reading this because you paid this company money and want it back, send your complaint to the above places as well. I hope we can beat this company if we do it together.

If you have been ripped off by 1-800-SKYRIDE (HeadbanD LLC.) owned by Fried Burke and Lilliam Dejesus and would like your refund, you can get your money. They have a legal staff waiting to assist you. You may be due a refund. Contact their lawyers below.
Everybody that is suing them gets a refund with interest and penalties! All you have to do is file a small claims court case against the people who stole your money. This is easy, just go the magistrate court nearest your home and fill out the small claims form.

This company --- actually, companies --- is a fraud.
I have reported this to my credit card company, and may take this further. I am not a happy camper.
I finally got some kind of response. Not much just a general letter stating that their websites were hijacked and all kinds of stuff. It came from Lillian. This is the email address so she can handle the concerns. I requested a refund, lets see.
They're not reachable at 1-800-759-7433 or by e-mail at customercncerns@headbandllc.biz because, "We are experiencing a higher than normal call volume..."
What's shocking, is there web site is still up and running at http://www.1800skyride.com/
Stumbled across this complaint thread about this company and guess I'm one of the unlucky that got scammed.
I'm currently filing the proper paperwork with my creditor/bank as well as the BBB. We'll see what happens.

1800Skyride was the brand of a legit business, Headband, LLC, formerly located in Kennesaw, Georgia. Headband was put out of business in April by a ruthless competitor who closed down its sales websites and thus deprived it of its ability to be a viable business. I believe it was this competitor who posted my name online for harassment purposes. in addition, slanderous online postings have linked the name of a decorated detective with Paulding County, Georgia, Fred Berke, with Headband. Detective Berke has never had any involvement with Headband, but is the husband of Headband's owner, Lilliam DeJesus. I was formerly a corporate attorney for Headband, LLC, which owned and operated the 1800Skyride brand. My firm is owed several thousand dollars in unpaid legal fees by Headband. I have never been involved in the consumer side of Headband's business. However, Headband, LLC's assets and business have now been placed in receivership by court order (Fulton County Superior Court; Headband, LLC v. Cary Quattrocchi et al., C.A. 2012-CV-214228).
Here is the contact info for the receiver, but I doubt there are any assets of Headband to pay for unredeemable ride vouchers.

Tim Baxter the Atlanta lawyer who represents the thief Lilliam Dejesus and her scam artist husband Fred Burke who works for the Paulding County Georgia police department! All three of these characters are very bad people but possibly the worst is Fred Burke who made plenty of money from the Headband LLC scam that he and his wife ran. He hides behind his official position as Paulding County police officer! Fred Burke stole money from consumers and burglarized the former office of Headband LLC along with that of other tenants of the same building.
You may call them at the numbers listed below but mostly they just lie and tell you stories of how someone else made them steal your money!
You can win your money back by suing them at your local magistrate court! Just file a quick and cheap lawsuit where you live and name all three of these scam artists. Make sure you send a copy to them at the addresses listed below. You will either get you money from them or win by default as it is too costly to defend your suit in what is to them an out of state court.
