Does anyone know anything about the above??

vast.com/vacation_rentals/destination-AZ---Other/location-San-Luis--AZ/range-city/page-2

Oooh, I'm there too! They've used the pic of my fireplace instead of the outside shot but all seems to be okay from there, all info correct Seems to be like a search engine of all rental sites?

You’re lucky Sue, they’ve placed my house in Nicaragua. They seem to be feeding the content from other sites.

Every listing has a link that reads “Report incorrect result�. I clicked on it expecting a form asking what is wrong. Instead, it just says “Thank you�.

I've just had a quick look and they've listed my neighbour's apartment which is identical to mine as a 2 bed, 2 bath villa. It's a one bed, one bath apartment!!

Mine's there too! All lifted from HomeAway - isn't that part of Holiday Rentals? It's certainly the same property number! So we've all been sold on............

But is that such a bad thing? Well it is if they get the details wrong but if they correct those then I can see no harm to be more widely advertised?

Oh my God - I'm there too at $64 per night for my 2 bed apartment! By the look of things, they have lifted it from Owners Direct.

[roxytoo]

Because they've taken nearly all of mine they are all widely wrong, wrong photos, wrong property in the wrong place, inaccurate descriptions

[Alan Knighting]

I haven’t looked so I don’t know if I am there or not.

A question. What would you say if they produce enquiries when your regular Listing Sites are not? OK I’m only joking but, what if?

I don't know yet Alan, am just annoyed at the mo because they have lifted absolutly everything without asking and its all wrong!!

Yes if it gives my site a boost in hits etc and enquires for my owners great but how do I put all the listings correct etc? I can't unless I email them. I just don't think it should be allowed without ASKING and then they should get it right...............

[mon269]

What would you say if they produce enquiries when your regular Listing Sites are not?

Nothing Although my guests would be disappointed that they’re going to Spain rather than Nicaragua.

I must admit I have paused - not really sure what to do!

Your absolutely right. I was asking "tongue in cheek".

I think we should calm down a little. This is NOT yet another listing site. As Sue pointed out above, its a search engine that searches your adverts on bona fide listing sites. When a visitor clicks thru on VAST, it takes you to the originating listing site.

Vast is more like Kelkoo, or Travelsupermarket ( one never actually buys anything from these sites) but it seems that they have yet to iron out a few glitches in location and pricing.

Taking tongue out of cheek, I think its probably a good thing.

[Sue Dyer]

My listing clicks through to my cottageguide listing with full correct details so I'm happy.

Saying that, my last week of the summer season has gone today. That's me thru until Sept. I didn't think that last April week would shift and it is the week before my holidays so I thought, great, few days spending money!!

e-rich, I suppose it is like google or any search engine picking you up? Bit of a bummer though if your details are badly wrong.

Oerr...I am a bit bothered
as weve changed location sleeping arrangemants Skiing[dont think so.....!00m from Beach Garage would be handy for storing the skiis
Exquisite architetures..[in torrevieja dont think so...Dutch pulchitride...maybe if someone can tell me what it means

The only good thing is that theyve found me on holiday Havens which is more than anyone else has done in 18mths ..not bad as Im not sposed to be on there anymore either..
