Holiday Firm Probed by Fraud Squad

Holiday Firm Probed by Fraud Squad

Don’t get caught out by unscrupulous Holiday websites!

Please note, you will not risk these problems if you follow the links and recommendations from TheTravelPage.co.uk, as we do not personally take money from those booking holidays, and we only refer holiday seekers to reputable companies who are ABTA and/or ATOL bonded.

The BBC reports that thousands of holiday makers nationally have lost money through the following companies. As the firm owning these websites was not linked to the ATOL (Air Travel Organisers’ Licensing) nor ABTA (Association of British Travel Agents), customers are not entitled to redress from them.

The five websites under investigation are

  • www.sunmedresorts.com
  • www.unbeatableholidays.com
  • www.holidaysforunder200pounds.com
  • www.holidayrez.com
  • www.holidayez.com

The five websites were trading under the names Fleetwood Holidays Ltd or Sun Orient Ltd, which were based in Islington, north London.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: “We believe that the companies are being registered and run for a short length of time and then replaced by newly named companies when the first company stops “trading” in order for the fraud to be continued.
