Why Should You Join Veterans Advantage?
Read These Testimonials

---------------------------------------------------

I can see how much you and your company really care about our Veterans by the efficiency of activating the accounts and the wonderful customer service rendered. In my opinion, this is more important than the benefits offered. You make it a breeze for our Veterans to use the benefits in a timely fashion and with minimum effort. This means so much to my hubby.

From the time of registration, I was very impressed with the kind and helpful service we received. We certainly will pass the word on to other Veterans we know. They deserve every benefit that comes their way.

Thank you again for your wonderful company and for being there for our Veterans!

The membership came in handy when we were doing "The Wire" because we used to go down there (New York to Baltimore) all the time. It gave me a great deal (on Amtrak).

Just a quick note to let you know that I took advantage of our Veterans Advantage benefit with North American Van Lines, and I can't thank you and them enough for such a fantastic benefit!!

They treated me with all the care and courtesy of a "full-fare" client, there was not one short cut, everyone I had contact with was professional and couldn't have been nicer, my furniture was stored then delivered completely intact, and they saved me over ten thousand dollars on a move from San Diego to Chicago.

It was a very lucky day for me when I discovered Veterans Advantage!!

Please be advised that I have been a member since 1/28/2008. I saved $195.90 on my stay at the Roadway Inn on Eddy & Franklin Streets in San Francisco, CA, during the six-day period from 17/02/08 and 22/02/08. Regular rate was $97.65 per night while my Veterans Advantage rate was $65.00 per night. My first time saving with my Veterans Advantage benefits more than paid for my membership to 2011, plus some savings left over. A great deal.

I did order from the Apple Store though Veterans Advantage and received the discount! It amounted to almost $50 off after I used the discount to purchase iPod and accessories! Since no else I've found offers a discount on iPod I was very pleased!

As an advocate and lobbyist for Veterans and military issues here in Washington, I have the opportunity to see and hear a lot throughout of what is going on around the country while visiting with old friends during Rolling Thunder weekend. The military community is a very tight knit group of people and this weekend I witnessed something very special... your promotion of Veterans Advantage!

Which is why I am writing to you... THANK YOU! It is so heartwarming to see someone create something this special to give back to those who put on a uniform. Recruiting companies to give back to our Veterans and military is very special. It's about time.

I will send out a blast to all Veterans on my list and direct them to your site in an effort to help say thank you to our veterans. Good luck! If there is anything I can do to help you and your venture, please let me know.

I just saved $180.00 on 4 nights of lodging in Washington, D.C. by using the Veteran's Advantage card. The SAME room at the SAME hotel was $129.00 per night at a so-called discount web-site, but only $84.00 per night using the Veteran's Advantage Hotel Reservation Network, your sponsor. Wow. Since I signed up for my Veteran's Advantage card, I have saved nearly $400.00 in lodging and transportation expenses, and that's money in MY pocket. Thanks!

I was only in the National Guard during the Viet Nam war but gained veteran status. I am presently a member of the Veteran's Advantage and have been traveling on Amtrak using the Veteran's Advantage discounts. My wife and I use Amtrak to pick up our grand children and drop them off some 600 miles from our home to them. The Veteran's Advantage discount has been wonderfully appreciated. We are now looking into traveling to other areas on the Amtrak. It is because of your service that we have found a wonderful and relaxing means of travel in our country. Thank you for your wonderful work.

About a year and a half ago I wrote letter to Amtrak about my trip around the country and the service and my experiences along the way. I sent a separate note to the marketing dept. about how many vets I encountered on this round the country trip. The letter asked for a program and discounts for Vets because they loved the trains and were great ambassadors for rail passenger service.

I am astounded at what you have done with this idea. It's wonderful. Each time I look at the site I see new improvements. Scott, I don't know when you got involved with this project but I am sure it is your leadership that have moved things along. I am glad there is a name (yours) the public can contact.

Hello to everyone at the Veterans Advantage Team. I need just a little of your help. My name is Alan C Kifer. I'm a very satisfied member and a three year extended membership member (including my wife Nory, daughter Skye, and son Aaron). My car was recently vandalized and my briefcase stolen [amongst other things], and need replacement cards for me and my family members. I have moved to Houston Texas and the new contact number is xxx-8797. I use my benefits a lot, especially with business travel on Continental and the Dell computer discount program too. Just to name a few. Thank you for these invaluable benefits in the program and your assistance.

It was a pleasure to talk to you today. You answered all my questions concerning my membership. Both my wife and I have been members' I Believe for over two years. I served in the Army, and wife is a former Marine. We served in the first gulf war. I am still serving in the Ohio Military Reserve as a Chaplains Assistant.

In Ohio Military Reserve many are prior service like myself, and I have told about this outstanding organization that I belong too. And they have looked into it, as far as I know to date 4 others have joined VA. They liked the idea that this deals with Veterans and their family members. Not too many other organizations have this.

I travel every 6 months to Los Angeles by Amtrak. I cannot tell you how much I have saved thanks to VA. We have used VA when the entire family traveled to California as well. Once again when we stay at a hotel and use it for car rentals. We saved thousands dollars when we used it as a family. And again this summer when we go on a family vacation we will be using it. We will be traveling to Gettysburg and New York. Right now this family uses VA more than AAA. The only reason for AAA is the towing services they offer. But the way you guys are going it may come to this, eventually you guys may out shine AAA. Again thanks for all the good things that VA offers.

Sincerely

Dear Roy,

As a winner of tickets to the Freedoms Foundation Leavey Awards gala, I want to thank you for a wonderful and inspirational night. From the Fife and Drum Corps entrance and Timmy's singing of the National Anthem, to the awards presentation and barbershop quartet, it was truly a memorable and educational night. Dr. Evgeny Pavlovich Velikhov's speech on his work with Junior Achievement in Russia was especially interesting. Again, thank you for the wonderful night.

I want to personally thank you and all the North American Employees that provided a smooth and effortless move. I know it took a combination effort and it was short notice, but I was extremely impressed with North American. I also know that it was short notice to the extreme. My hat is off to all of you, I would recommend North American to anyone that asks.

Lou, our driver from Cord, was super great, he was on such a tough schedule working at the last minute and I did not mind being flexible with my schedule. The loaders from Beltman and unloaders from Cord were outstanding. My mother-in-law was extremely impressed here in St Louis when they stopped and introduced themselves to her. She was amazed at how professional and how much courtesy they showed. I can't say enough about them, I would recommend Lou, our driver, to anyone that needs to move.

The only bad thing I have to say is about packing, there seemed to be some issue with what was supposed to be packed and what was actually packed. It all worked out in the end, but I think if the packing would have been correct that the moved would have been a little smoother as far as time goes. But I was really ecstatic about the way things were loaded and even more so when things were unloaded. This is our fourth move, with twice as much household goods as any of the 3 before combined, it went much smoother and less headache than any of the others.

Please pass on my wish to be a reference for your superb service.

I spent over 10 years in the Marine Corps and I am one proud American. About a month ago my wife was upset that there are no companies that offer discounts or assist Veterans. She went on to saying that there are men and women who have given their time, bodies and some of their lives to give us the freedoms we have today, and yet nobody thanks them. In today’s society, businesses would rather hire a 23-year old kid who spent 4 years partying getting his degree instead of a 23-year old kid who has held the responsibility of others’ lives in his hands. When we discovered Veterans Advantage yesterday she and I were excited and signed up right away. This is a company that shows its pride in America by supporting those who have given us so much.

Subject: Outstanding Service

Thank you for taking time this morning to speak with me in regards to services offered by Veterans Advantage.

As I stated to you on the phone, I am an independent contractor. I work mainly from home via telephone and my phone bills for long distance average between $200 and $300 per month. I am currently with AT&T and the cheapest rate is 7 cents per minute. As you can tell, 3.9 cents per minute would save me approx $100 to $150 per month. Obviously, this is a substantial savings for me!

Also, I do have one customer in the NYC area that I visit at least once a month. I use to drive to the city as it costs around $75 to take Amtrak from Albany to Penn Station. I now use my Veterans Advantage savings and take the train for 1/2 price. This is great, I can work on the train and actually get to the city rested and relaxed for a busy day ahead. Also, I use to have a 3 hr drive home and at 7pm at night it seemed to be even longer. I can take the 6pm train out of the city and am home by 10pm. It is great.

We have also used the AVIS discount several times for both business and personal use. As a matter of fact, I am making a reservation today for our vacation next month. We are looking into using the hotel discount also.

Thanks again for all your help!! This is a great service.

I have for some time, wondered why veterans who are 100% permanently disabled out of service to their country, combat related especially, are not honored in this way. My husband is such a man, and raising a family; subsisting on disability--as he requires a great deal of care, is not easy at all.

When he left the army after 18 years, as a field grade officer, his education and skills could've landed him a 6 figure income were it not for the fact that he was rendered 100% disabled. This is just a letter to give anybody there that cares a chance to think or respond or whatever. Not many really care. Not many even realize how many wars have gone on unreported, while American servicemen fought, died, or had their lives changed forever. They got no attention from the press, as these wars were often "classified".
Their lips are zipped, and they ask for nothing.
Many thanks,

Subject: Re: Veterans Advantage: A New Program for our nation's Veterans

Thanks for the insight on your program. 26 million veterans with no voice is a good reason for your program. I will pass the word for you. I too am disappointed that a veteran that served 10 years before me and right on the heels if the Korean War cannot enjoy the benefits that I have taken for granted all these years. They too put their lives at risk just serving our country and being there. May they long be able to enjoy benefits your organization is putting together for them.

Have a Great Day

Scott I don't know when you got involved with this project but I am sure it is your leadership that have moved things along. I am glad there is a name (yours) the public can contact.

One other idea I have is to find train buffs who are also vets who might travel with the trains and who could be sort of unpaid ambassadors or travelers aid (could be attached to the traveler Aid organization) I am sure they could have a cell Phone to help those in need make contact with someone ahead. There a lot of public relations sort of problems the crew cannot always handle. Confused seniors may need only someone to talk to or explain things. They may be just the person to give a bit of local color over the PA system about some historical site on the route. I am so happy to see my Idea has come to this and you are improving on it all the time.

Sincerely
