|
| Credit For Invalid Travel Quote Requests. The travel
quote requests forwarded to Principal will come from promotions on the Internet
and therefore have not been reviewed by TravelReferrals.com. TravelReferrals.com policy is
to give credit for travel quote requests that meet the following
criteria: |
|
| Duplicates. Principal will pay for the first travel
quote request. TravelReferrals.com will credit the duplicates. |
|
| Consumer Errors or Misinformation. This includes
disconnected or wrong telephone number, or a missing or wrong email address.
Credit will be given only if no contact is possible. For example, if the
telephone number is incorrect but the address is valid, or the telephone number
can be obtained from the name or address information, this is still a valid
travel quote request. Credit is not given for consumers that do not return
Principal’s call. |
|
| Credit will be given for travel quote requests that
do not apply to Principal’s pre-selected filtering criteria as outlined in
Schedule A or Attachments B or C. |
|
| Pranks or Phony Data Submissions. Travel quote
requests that are obvious pranks should be noted on the invoice and credit
taken. |
|

that is illegible or has become garbled, it is Principal’s responsibility to
contact TravelReferrals.com for re-transmission. |
