I don't see them on the web.....I'd find out the exact name of the company and google them....look for complaints.

I'm always suspicious of vacation packages....I find that I can usually get better deals on my own with Priceline etc.

Thanks for the response. From what I understand, this company is very much like Direct Buy. I am a member of Direct Buy and the diffence is supose to be that Direct Source does travel and cars which Direct Buy doesn't do. I have already checked the web but didn't get much. I was hoping that someone out there may already be a member, and could give the skinny.

Thanks again,

I'm afraid that any similarity to Direct Buy would keep me from using it!

I still don't see anything on the web for a travel company called "Direct Source" though. Check the exact name of the company and see what you can find.

OK....I did find this about Direct Source of Woodlands, which sounds like it might be the company you're looking at.....I'd run the other way!

Thanks so much for ferreting this company out. I'm now glad that I didn't get pulled in by this racket.
