Well I am in Cancun now. I was hesitant to come but figured i would instead of canceling the trip. I figured there would be a small showing (less than 100) instead theres a dozen of us.
The hotel is too big so finding everyone took 2 days, especially since we didn’t recognize half the faces.
The hotel is overpriced and does not even have internet connectivity in all of the rooms, if you are in a building far from the lobby you cant connect. They want $10usd an hour to connect unless you negotiate for a better rate. Great place for an internet conference where there’s lousy internet and half the people cant connect.
The bar/nightclub in the resort last night had about 20 people in it including half of which were us and the other half preteens who were dancing on the dance floor. Its really happening here especially for spring break. This is a family hotel I wonder if they bothered to visit it first? This is possibly the most overpriced and overrated hotel in mexico.
Why was there not an email telling us to cancel our reservations at least 15 days in advance when it was free to cancel?
Why did no one from CAP show up?
Why are none of the events happening?
Why is there no one posting on here and letting us know what is happening or send us a letter or anything?
If you are planning on going to future CAP events (even if they have been renamed) then my advise is to cancel them. This is my last CAP conference and I recommend that everyone cancels their future plans.
The CAP staff has proven what they are made of. The people who came here spent thousands and they don’t even have the courtesy of emailing us. Shows a lot about the new ‘direction’ management has promised us.
Cancel Amsterdam. Don’t go to London. Dont advertise here.
This website is a scam. I doubt anyone who showed up here will bother with future events, or anything of CAP, igamingbusiness, or any of the other dozen subsidiaries they use.

March 23, 2009 at 4:12 pm #797490AnonymousInactiveHi Antoine,
Sam has been in Cancun since yesterday and Yvette is arriving on Tuesday. If you recall, this is exactly how the first CAP Spring Breaks were organized in Miami.
We’ve had to attend to a lot of things (many which were completely unnecessary and unforseen), thus could not get an announcement out to notify everyone well in advance that none of the scheduled and sponsored events would be happening.

this is pretty shoddy CAP. I daresay CAP knew nobody was going as presumably people must pre-reg as they had to do for CAP london (which was mobbed and only about 6 weeks ago)..
I feel sorry for the OP and anyone else who attended CAP Cancun. No interwebz, no people, lighter pockets.
the fact that it was on in Cancun obv meant that the turnout was gonna be smaller than other CAPs, but if the turnout was <100 people, imo it should have been cancelled.
as for this :

Epic fail. That’s the weakest excuse I have heard in my life. talk about unprofessional. You’re busy? hire some staff.. with the money you make here you can certainly afford it. Can you afford to p**s off your punters? Maybe you should offer refunds to the poor affiliates who attended expecting to attend something with some events etc..
I expect I’ll get banned for making this post. nothing surprises me here anymore.:flush:

March 23, 2009 at 5:37 pm #797500cybersportsMemberhi everyone.
you can view the details on what is going on in this thread. I will be there tomorrow to meet with all of you. In addition, I am arranging to have everyone meet at Tequila Grill for dinner tomorrow night 8:30PM.

I’ll see you all there!
FYI – CAP Spring Break is not meant to be like the other CAP events. They are always more casual and less structured allowing everyone to network and have a good time.

In good hands – over 50 exhibitors are confirmed. The new name is Amsterdam Affiliate Conference.
March 23, 2009 at 5:55 pm #797506cybersportsMemberHey Russell,
Ill be there tomorrow..can we meet up for dinner at Tequilla Grill? I have a few people already set to come. we will all have a good ole’ time! I haven’t seen you in ages!:hattip:
March 23, 2009 at 7:09 pm #797509sfjonathanMemberGlad I didn;t book, as someone new. I would have been CHOKED!!!! Think i will look elsewhere. Good luck all.
March 23, 2009 at 7:31 pm #797510AnonymousInactiveWell I assume Cancun hung in the air while Alex was rebirthing the CAP conferences into the new Igaming ones.
I hope you guys make the best of it and vacation – that’s all spring break is meant to be anyway. I know there are a lot more people there than mentioned, hopefully you will all find each other.
I hope this one year of disarray won’t kill off the Spring Breaks – they have been my favorite conferences from the start.

Dom, you hit the nail on the head. It’s been a year of disarray and hopefully by next year we’re back in Miami Beach enjoying CAP Spring Break (if all goes as planned with the new Obama administration). :capmiami:

Hmm..
You are an affiliate manager right?
I’m surprised to read something like this in the Spring Break thread from an affiliate manager.
March 24, 2009 at 12:34 am #797528Vpoker_BrazilMemberAre you saying I steal ??
